6060 Hydraulic Shovel

CALCULATE FINANCE

SAFETY

  • Excellent visibility thanks to cab position that provides clear view to the digging and loading areas, floor window that provides a view to the tracks, LED lighting, and optional camera monitoring system.
  • Emergency egress ladder with a self-closing door located in direct proximity to the cab.
  • Safer access with 45-degree powered access stairway that features emergency lowering via a nitrogen accumulator, which ensures it remains operational even when engines shut off.
  • Safer electrical and/or mechanical maintenance thanks to lockable starter and battery isolation switch cabinet.
  • Safer service with improved sealing between engines and hydraulic pumps, improved routing and separation of hydraulic lines and electric cables.

OPERATOR CAB

  • Improved operator comfort with Cat Next Gen heated and cooled seat and integrated joysticks.
  • First-in-class and patented 3-seat design, including elevated full-size trainer’s seat and laptop work desk.
  • New and improved air conditioning system.
  • Reduced noise and temperature control thanks to superior insulation.
  • Productivity-boosting Operator Assist
     - Enhanced Motion Control, which reduces fatigue and helps inexperienced operators more confidently load material.

RELIABILITY & DURABILITY

  • Improved structures, including increased weight, strengthened superstructure and increased thickness in several locations.
  • 33% longer service life for new and enlarged slew ring.
  • New undercarriage with long-life components, frame and electronics.
  • New crawler frame and Cat undercarriage with HD rollers, HD idlers, HD track, and track tensioning.
  • New and improved engine design that improves reliability and extends gallons consumed before first overhaul by 10%, which also contributes to longer engine life.

PRODUCTIVITY & PERFORMANCE

  • Up to 15% greater efficiency through Hydraulic Optimization, which dynamically assigns individual pumps or groups of pumps to deliver the exact flow and pressure that each hydraulic function requires.
  • Faster cycle times and improved energy efficiency delivered by closed-loop swing system, which also generates less heat.
  • Greater operator control thanks to five circuit hydraulics that allow for two cylinder motions, two travel motions, and swing to be controlled simultaneously.
  • Easier and faster face shovel operation with unique TriPower face shovel design, which generates superior mechanical leverage and control.
  • Increased productivity and greater uptime with the twin engine concept, which enables up to 65% of full production with a single engine.

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 the lowest cost per ton.
  • Variety of sizes and material densities 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 shroud, wing shrouds and heel shrouds.

CONNECTIVITY & TECHNOLOGY

  • Greater connectivity with improved Product Link™ Elite system, which increases the availability of data provided by the 6060.
  • Additional performance and reliability advantages through integration of proven and validated Cat electronics.
  • Intuitive, informative onboard electronics that help operators be more productive.
  • Enhanced diagnostic capabilities and troubleshooting functions with factory-installed Monitoring and Diagnostic System.
  • Connectivity features and the integration of Cat MineStar™ Health offerings enable a proactive approach to maintenance.

SERVICEABILITY

  • More room in the service compartment, plus easy access to slew gearboxes, rotary distributor, oil cooler and more.
  • Clear arrangement of components on the superstructure for easy access and serviceability.
  • Hose assemblies that can be built locally using all Cat material.
  • Access to Cat Electronic Technician, which helps dealer service personnel more easily diagnose and prevent issues.
  • Reduced maintenance downtime thanks to exchange intervals for engine oil and engine filters that have been increased from 500 to 1,000 hours

SUSTAINABILITY

  • Reduced fuel burn thanks to 10% improvement in hydraulic efficiency.
  • Reduced emissions with engines that satisfy Tier 4 standards and eliminate the need for Diesel Exhaust Fluid (DEF) — saving time and cost during maintenance.
  • Less heat and improved efficiency with the closed-loop swing circuit.
  • Reduced 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 condition.
