Caterpillar 374 Large Digger

Caterpillar 374 specifications

The Caterpillar 374 Next Generation Excavator will benefit your company by increasing productivity, durability, and lowering maintenance costs.

High Performance

The 374 can load up to 33 trucks per hour with its 36 tonne (40 tonne) capacity.

Due to a 10% increase in swing torque, cycle times are significantly quicker than the previous version.

Multifunctioning is smoother and more efficient because to the new hydrostatic swing circuit.

Enhanced heavy lift mode increases system pressure, making picking and positioning large goods simpler.

The booms, sticks, and frames are two times more robust than the preceding model, assuring years of dependable performance in the harshest environments.

Power, Smart, and ECO are the three operating modes that allow you fit the excavator to the work.

AdvansysTM bucket tips enhance penetration and cycle times.

Tip changes may be done more quickly using a lug wrench than with a hammer or other specific instrument, resulting in enhanced safety and uptime.

With the aid of auxiliary hydraulic solutions, you may use a wide range of Cat attachments.

Allowing the cold to get in the way of your job is not a good idea. This excavator can work in temperatures as low as –18 degrees Celsius and as high as 52 degrees Celsius (125 degrees Fahrenheit) (-0.4 degrees Fahrenheit).

Efficient And Productive Technology

On-board weighing system for Cat PAYLOAD: With on-the-go weighing and real-time payload forecasts, reach exact load objectives and enhance loading efficiency without swinging.

With VisionLink®, you can control production objectives from afar.

You may download data from one shift to 30 days of work using the USB socket on the monitor, allowing you to follow progress without the need for an internet connection or a VisionLink membership.

You may boost productivity over traditional grading using the standard Cat GRADE with 2D system, which has indicate-only and laser capabilities.

You may simply upgrade to optional Cat GRADE with Advanced 2D or 3D.

Remote Troubleshoot links you to a dealer service specialist who can assist you in resolving your issue and getting back to work as soon as possible.

Remote Flash adapts to your schedule to keep your machine's software up to date and functioning properly.

The Cat App allows you to track the location, hours, and maintenance schedules of your fleet, as well as get maintenance notifications and request repairs from your local Cat dealer.

Standard Product LinkTM provides on-demand location, machine hours, fuel use, productivity, idle time, diagnostic codes, and other machine data via the VisionLink web interface, helping you to boost worksite efficiency while minimising operating costs.

Cat Grade systems are interoperable with radios and base stations from Trimble, Topcon, and Leica. Have you previously made a high-quality infrastructure investment? Grading systems from Trimble, Topcon, and Leica may all be placed on the machine.

Easy Operation

Start the engine using a push button using a Bluetooth key fob or the unique Operator ID feature.

Each joystick button, including power mode, response, and pattern, may be programmed using Operator ID, and the system will remember your settings each time you return to work.

Up to four depth and slope offsets may be preset, allowing you to get to grade quickly and safely without the use of a grade checker.

Avoid using your hammer excessively. The auto hammer stop warns you after 15 seconds of continuous fire and then shuts it off automatically after 30 seconds to prevent wear and tear on the attachment and excavator.

In cold areas, automatic hydraulic oil warming helps you to operate more quickly while also increasing component life.

On the basic 254 mm (10 in) touchscreen monitor, use the jog dial control to browse quickly.

A second 254 mm (10 in) monitor is available for the Cat GRADE with Advanced 2D and 3D.

The Cat PL161 Attachment Locator is a Bluetooth gadget that aids in the rapid location of attachments and other equipment. Using the excavator's inbuilt Bluetooth reader or the Cat App on your phone, the object will be found immediately.

You may save time and energy by recognising accessible job tools. A short shake of the attached tool validates its identification while also verifying that all attachment settings are correct, enabling you to get right to work.

Do you have any queries regarding how a feature works or how to maintain the excavator's functionality? Always keep the operator's handbook on your touchscreen monitor.

Manoeuvring the excavator is a breeze using Cat Stick Steer. Simply push a button and spin using one hand, rather of requiring both hands or feet on levers or pedals.

Do you require some extra assistance during your shift? When you require an extra 8% of power, turn on Auto Heavy Lift for as long as you need it.

Working In Comfort

Choose between Deluxe and Premium cabs, which both have automatic climate control.

The Deluxe heated seat is warm, while the Premium heated and ventilated seat is both warm and cool.

It's simpler to get in and out of the cab with the left console tilted up.

Advanced viscous mounts minimise cab vibration by up to 50% when compared to prior excavator models.

You can simply handle the excavator thanks to the easy-to-reach controls directly in front of you.

There is plenty of storage in the cab, including beneath and behind the seats, overhead, and in the consoles.

Use the USB ports and Bluetooth® technology on the standard radio to connect personal devices and make hands-free calls.

Superior Safety

Standard 2D E-Fence is pre-installed and prevents the excavator from travelling beyond the operator-defined predefined sites.

Lift Assist helps you avoid tipping by letting you know if your load is within the excavator's safe operating range.

The back and right-hand sideview cameras are standard. You'll be able to see everything around the excavator in one view when you upgrade to 360° vision.

You can see all around the truck with the premium 360° lighting package, which comprises 1800 lm lights on the chassis, cab, boom, sides, and back.

Serrated steps and an anti-skid punch plate help prevent slipping on the maintenance platform.

With the aid of a travel direction indication, operators can identify which way the travel levers should be actuated.

Smaller cab pillars, bigger windows, and a flat engine hood give good view into the trench and behind you in either swing direction.

A ground-level shutdown switch, when activated, turns off all gasoline to the engine and shuts down the machine.
