The Cat® Detect with Smart Camera safety technology utilizes a smart camera, an in-cab display and alerts to help your operator keep track of people near the machine.
The Cat® Detect with Surround Camera system uses three or four cameras and an in-cab display to give operators a view of their surroundings. It's an effective way to increase safety at the site.
Designed specifically to reduce time and costs associated with transportation, assembly and rework procedures for underground mining, the Cat® bolt-together bucket is the solution to lower repair costs, reduced machine down time and higher machine productivity.
The Cat®underground loader buckets have the same strength and toughness you would expect of any Cat product. They are designed for optimal loadability and structural reliability to help lower your cost-per-ton.

The Cat® AD45 Underground Truck delivers all the power, performance and reliability you expect from the AD45 — but the latest model also offers an an advanced EU Stage V compliant engine and aftertreatment solution that meets the strictest emissions standards, lowers your carbon footprint and improves air quality in your mine. In addition, a retrofit solution is available that allows you to retrofit the previous model, the AD45B, to meet the same strict standards. This ultra-clean diesel machine delivers superior productivity thanks to its ideal match with the next generation Cat R1700 underground loader and is technology-enhanced with features that improve productivity, boost uptime and keep operators and personnel safer on the job.
When it came time to redesign the Cat® R1700 Underground Loader, the goal was simple: add value, power and performance, and keep safety at the core. And we succeeded. With each cycle, the R1700 hauls 20% more material than its predecessor and is highly aggressive in the pile. It loads, climbs, hauls and dumps faster. And it’s factory ready for the latest technologies, including fully autonomous haulage, which takes safety and efficiency to a new level. The R1700 is infused with features to keep people safe. It offers three engine emission options, including one that meets Stage V standards, and can be tailored to your mine’s ventilation requirements. A clean-sheet redesign, the R1700 loader leverages engineering talent from across Caterpillar to create the next generation of productive underground loading.

Cat® MineStar™ Command for underground enables remote operation of load-haul-dump machines to deliver immediate productivity and efficiency gains to your operation. The system improves safety by removing operators from hazardous environments. It also delivers machine utilization increases over line-of-sight mucking operations by reducing the downtime required for shift changes, blast times, and any other conditions that can remove operators from the face.
Options range from simple line-of-sight to full autonomy. This building block approach allows miners to capture value at their most economic entry point while allowing scalability as technology maturity grows.
Cat® MineStar™ Fleet for underground provides real-time visibility to cycle time, payload and other key operational parameters. It automatically records and tracks data up and down the value chain, providing insights that help you identify what’s working and fix what’s not. Thanks to our proprietary high-precision underground positioning technology, mines can accurately track personnel and assets to sub-meter accuracy. This also gives you access to critical cycle information, so you can better understand machine usage and overall efficiency of operations. Real-time two-way task management provides essential data that positively impacts productivity and helps you optimize the entire mining operation.
