Automatic Features

           

Advanced Automatic Traction Control (AATC)

Proactive application of the inter and cross-axle differential locks is ‘on-the-go' and fully automatic. The operator does not have to think about when and where to engage either diff lock. Sensors monitor the machine and wheel speeds, enabling instant response in high rolling resistance conditions. Operation is seamless and smooth, eliminating wheel slip for maximum traction and therefore productivity.

Clutches are automatically disengaged when ground conditions allow, maximizing efficiency when steering or when on uneven ground.

AATC reduces tire and driveline abuse, eliminating lost machine efficiencies caused by improper manual operation of the differential clutches, and reducing the cost of premature tire replacement.

Automatic Retarder Control (ARC)

In automatic mode, use of the retarder is much easier for the operator. As with AATC a number of machine operating aspects are monitored, and if required the engine compression brake is engaged automatically. The system can help towards eliminating engine overspeed, improving safe machine operation and reducing cycle times, yet still with the flexibility of manual control if needed.

Assisted Ejecting System

Ejecting material from the dump body can be done automatically with the new Assisted Ejecting Control. Flick the new load eject switch and the machine will apply the service brakes, switch the transmission to neutral and push the material out at the required engine RPM. Retracting the blade is done the same way, flick the switch and the machine will fully retract the blade. Two flicks, one out, one in.



Versatility

           

The 740 EJ shares the versatility of the 745, operating in the same conditions, but offering unique capabilities that stretch the operation envelope.

The introduction of the new combined eject/transmission lever gives you the option to auto eject, as well as full manual control.

Spreading

The truck can eject and spread the material while moving, reducing additional spreading and dozing equipment. “On-the-go” ejecting results in faster cycle times and reduced power train loads.

Stability

Ejecting the load without raising the body increases stability, allowing load dispersal on inclines, side slopes and in very soft underfoot conditions especially on landfill sites.

Overhead Clearance

The truck can eject in areas with reduced overhead clearance, such as around overhead lines or in tunneling and underground operations.

Carry-Back

The body design eliminates material sticking to the body, which increases productivity, improves fuel efficiency and lowers cost per ton.

Body

Reinforced body is made from thick high-yield, heat-treated Brinell hardened steel (Brinell 400 on the base and sides) that provides exceptional durability. Ejector top rails are made from high-strength alloy steel. For optimum durability and wear life, the ejector body is designed to work in applications where the material consists of rocks smaller than 152 mm (6 in) in diameter.

Blade

The ejector blade is made from high-strength steel and uses technology similar to that proven in Cat wheel tractor-scrapers.

Cylinder

A four-stage, high-speed, double-acting cylinder is specifically designed for horizontal mounting and smooth load ejection.



Transmission

           

The Cat High Density Power Shift (HDPS) nine-speed forward two-speed reverse transmission, designed specifically for Articulated Trucks, features Advanced Productivity Electronic Control Strategy (APECS) and Electronic Clutch Pressure Control (ECPC) that deliver smooth gear changes with improved acceleration and higher productivity.

Speed hold/limiting function allows the machine speed to be limited in 1 km/h or 1 mph steps to conform to site speed restrictions.

Gearshifts are configured to maintain direct drive lock-up, and reduce dropping into converter drive. Decreasing the use of torque converter drive aids in maintaining ground speed and gradeability.

Variable gearshift points are used based on the operating conditions, which also aid in maintaining ground speed during gear changes on grades.

Torque Converter

Large diameter torque converter, configured for off highway applications, allows the higher engine power to be transmitted more efficiently to the lower power train.



Sustainability

           

All Cat Articulated Trucks are designed to maximize efficiency and productivity while conserving natural resources.

Oil Volumes

The amount of both hydraulic and engine oil required has been lowered, reducing waste oil disposal.

Air Quality

The Cat C18 ACERT engine incorporating the Cat Clean Emission Module (CEM) meets Tier 4 Final/Stage IV emission standards and has the flexibility of running on either ultra-low-sulfur diesel (ULSD, with 15 ppm sulfur or less) fuel or biodiesel blended with ULSD.

Recycle Waste

The Caterpillar Design, Manufacturing, Assembly and Test Site at Peterlee in England recycle 98 percent of all waste produced with zero waste to landfill.

Second Life

Cat Articulated Trucks are fully supported by the Cat Reman Service, providing same-as-new performance and reliability at a fraction of the cost of new parts, while reducing the negative impact on the environment.



Suspension and Braking

           

Front Suspension

The three-point front suspension design provides the mechanism required to travel at speed over rough terrain and softens impact loads on structures and components. Large bore, low-pressure cylinders are purposely designed for Articulated Truck applications and offer a soft, smooth ride for the operator.

A-Frame Construction

The front suspension uses an oscillating A-frame with a lateral tie rod to control axle sideways movement and stability.

Rear Suspension

The rear suspension features a walking beam with Caterpillar designed rear suspension mounts, which have long life and provide a reliable, and stable ride for excellent load retention.

Axle Enclosed Wet Brakes

All axle enclosed wet brakes provide high retarding and braking performance with improved holding on grades.

Hill Assist

Hill assist reduces potential ‘roll-back' on grades. If an operator stops the machine on a grade, when taking his foot off the service brake pedal the machine will automatically hold the service brakes on for a number of seconds to prevent the machine from rolling backwards.

Waiting Brake

Waiting brake applies the service brakes when neutral gear is selected, allowing quick and easy control of the machine at the load or dump area.



Serviceability

           

Long Service Intervals

Changes to oil change intervals, volumes and the type of oil required will help lower maintenance costs and machine downtime.

Lubrication Points

Lubrication points are grouped in the hitch area for ease of servicing. Universal joints are lubed for life, eliminating any maintenance. An Autolube system is also optional, and now includes alerts via Product Link for low grease levels.

Service Points

Service points are mounted on the left side of the engine under the electrically raised hood:

  • Engine dipstick and fill cap

  • Transmission dipstick and fill cap

  • Air, fuel water separator and fuel filters

  • Electrically operated fuel-priming pump

  • Coolant level indicator and fill cap are outside the cab


Radiator

The radiator package is located behind the cab, which provides protection from frontal impacts and offers easy access to the inlet and outlet sides of the radiator.

Extended Life Coolant

Extended Life Coolant extends the change interval and improves component life by reducing aluminum corrosion.

Electrical Service Center

Located inside the cab, this service center provides a power port, diagnostic connector and Cat Data Link connector.

Cat Data Link Connector

The Cat Data Link connector provides a plug-in using a laptop with Electronic Technician (ET) software.

Service Access

The cab tilts to the side to provide easy access underneath, which simplifies access to the transmission, drive shafts and hydraulic pumps. Machine electrical and hydraulic interfaces are located on the external right hand side of the cab, behind a removable body panel providing easy access.
