The fully-converted Cat 6030® hydraulic mining shovel comes equipped with proven and reliable C27 engines so you get the full benefits of the most powerful engine outputs in its class and the productivity you expect combined with the reliability you demand from Cat. This hydraulic mining shovel delivers reduced owning and operating costs through greater reliability and improved parts availability, while its full integration of Cat hydraulic hose assemblies deliver over 20 times more abrasion resistance and twice the durability of industry standard machines. And as the Cat 6030 can be rebuilt locally, businesses also benefit from reduced downtime.
The Cat 6030 hydraulic mining shovel delivers a new and improved operator cab to keep your team safe and comfortable on the job, day in and day out. The comfort and safety features that maximise operator confidence include excellent visibility of digging and loading areas from the cab and a multi-adjustable operator's seat equipped with integrated safety switch to automatically neutralise hydraulic controls when the operator leaves the seat. As the industry leader in equipment for heavy industries, Cat understands the challenges you face, the importance of reliability and the relationship between uptime and productivity. That's why we continually strive to produce the safest, most reliable and productive hydraulic mining shovels on the market — because in mining, whether underground mining or surface mining, every day matters and every load counts.
