Cat® Command for Dozing, Operator Station Caterpillar

One of Caterpillar's primary concerns is customer safety. To increase safety in mining, Caterpillar has developed the Cat^® Command for dozing applications. This system helps machine operators continue to mine while being out of the area of danger.

Applications

Recommended mining operation environments include (but are not limited to):

• Stockpile feeding

• Mining leach pads

• High-wall toe operation

• Operating near an edge

• Operating around hazardous material

The Remote Control System is compatible with the D8T, D10T, and D11T.

Once the Command system is installed on a compatible machine, that machine can be remotely controlled via the Operator Console or Operator Station. Command for dozing can utilize the Cat^® Terrain system as an Avoidance System. The System can be configured to keep the remotely controlled machine in a defined worksite boundary, keeping the machine out of several defined avoidance zones.
