6040 Hydraulic Mining Shovel
SAFETY
- Safer access and egress with 45-degree, hydraulically operated access stairway that remains operational even when machine engines shut off. Emergency egress ladder located near the cab.
- More than 40% improved visibility with wide, safety-glass windows and high-brightness working and service lights. Vision 360 further increases operator awareness by integrating four cameras to reduce blind spots.
- Lockable starter and battery isolation switch cabinet allows for safe electrical and mechanical maintenance.
- All service areas are accessible via wide, anti-slip walkways for improved technician safety.
- Ground-level service station reduces the need for service personnel to climb on the machine.
OPERATOR CAB
- Spacious, comfortable, quiet operator environment with superior insulation for reduced noise and better temperature control.
- Cat Next Gen comfort seat, as well as full-size trainer seat and fold-away auxiliary seat.
- New standard dual air conditioning system keeps operators cool and comfortable all shift long.
- Ergonomic joystick controls remove hydraulic lines from the cab and offer improved controllability and safety.
RELIABILITY & DURABILITY
- Robust major structures and heavy castings at pivot points stand up to heavy loads and harsh conditions.
- Heavy-duty undercarriage offers longer service life with more durable components and frame.
- Heavy-duty fixed-axle rollers and idlers last longer and eliminate grease consumption.
- New fixed pin locations reduce the number of grease lines, increasing uptime and improving physical availability.
PRODUCTIVITY & PERFORMANCE
- Two Cat C32B engines deliver reliable productivity and power. The machine can run with only one engine active to maintain production or move away from the face for repair.
- Energy-efficient float valves incorporate gravity to help lower the boom, reducing energy use and improving cycle times.
- Swing Speed Control improves controllability by braking when the joystick is released instead of requiring counter swing. It also contributes to future autonomy and energy recovery efforts.
- Unique TriPower™ Face Shovel design delivers faster cycle times by generating superior mechanical leverage and control.
- Up to 15% more fuel efficient thanks to Hydraulic Optimization, which cuts down on waste and extends component lives.
- Closed-Loop Swing System captures kinetic energy during the swing motion and uses it during deceleration, improving cycle times and energy efficiency.
- Independent Oil Cooling system protects and extends the life of hydraulic components while maintaining optimum oil temperature even during idle.
BUCKETS & GET
- Buckets and ground engaging tools (GET) designed to maximize durability and productivity and ideally matched to your shovel and application.
- Integrated to work as part of a machine system — helping you achieve high productivity and a low cost per ton.
- Variety of sizes and wear packages for the ideal match to your shovel and application.
- Deliver optimal payload when combined with Cat GET and wear components.
- Wear packages that protect your investment, including special liner material and lip shrouds, wing shrouds and heel shrouds.
CONNECTIVITY & TECHNOLOGY
- Greater connectivity with improved Product Link™ Elite system, which increases the availability of data provided by the 6040.
- Vision 360 increases operator awareness for improved safety on site.
- Operator Assist — Enhanced Motion Control improves operator confidence, performance and efficiency while lowering costs and increasing component life.
- Cat Payload offers real-time tracking and feedback on bucket payload to help improve operator performance and reduce over
- and under-loading. - Monitoring and Diagnostic System and Cat Electronics enhance diagnostic capabilities and provide detailed troubleshooting functions.
- Cat MineStar™ solutions, including Fleet, Terrain, Detect and Health, available as a retrofit.
SERVICEABILITY
- Better organized hoses and components, plus integration of Cat hoses and couplings, which offer industry-leading reliability and performance and ability to source locally.
- Ground-level service station provides easy access to functions such as coolant, hydraulic oil, slew gear box oil, grease, diesel and engine oil. The service station features an emergency shutoff, Cat battery charging connector and indicator lights for full fuel tanks.
- Proven, validated Cat electronic architecture and parts commonality with other machines make it easier to keep parts on hand and simplify technician training.
- Single-line grease system pairs with fixed-pin architecture to simplify grease distribution and speed up troubleshooting.
- Main hydraulic valve block is located on the boom, improving access to swing drives, rotary joint and travel spool valves.
SUSTAINABILITY
- Highly regulated C32B engine certified to meet U.S. EPA Tier 4 Final/EU Stage V emissions standards without the need for DEF — saving time and cost during maintenance.
- Less heat and improved efficiency with the closed-loop swing circuit.
- Reduced waste and lower owning and operating costs thanks to increased commonality of systems and components, plus a reduction in unique part numbers.
- Preservation of raw materials, energy conservation and reduced emissions through the Cat Reman program, which returns end-of-life components to like-new conditions.
