Overview

The Gold Standard in Cost Per Ton

The Cat® 793 Mining Truck is a popular industry workhorse that is the ideal choice for a wide variety of applications. It delivers high availability and hauls more every load, every cycle and every shift when compared to competitive trucks in its size class — burning less fuel in the process. Next generation features take the 793 to a new level. The operator sits in a state-of-the-art environment designed for efficiency and equipped with features that increase comfort, automate functions, provide real-time information and boost confidence. The 793 also delivers significant improvements in serviceability and reliability, enhanced connectivity and easier technology integration — including autonomous haulage. These improvements — and more — take an already proven truck to the next level of productivity.

Cat

PRODUCTIVITY

  • The 793 is faster than competitive trucks and delivers optimal speed on steep grades, poor underfoot conditions and haul roads with high rolling resistance. More continuous torque and rimpull delivers more power to the ground and makes it possible to use a higher gear on grade.
  • Forward momentum and torque are maintained through each shift, with optimum gear selection resulting in faster acceleration.
  • The Cat six-speed transmission, with the latest Advanced Power Electronic Control Strategy (APECS) controls, is paired with the C175-16 engine to deliver optimum power over a wide range of operating speeds.
  • An empty weight advantage of 13-19 tonnes (14-21 tons) over competitive electric drive trucks in its size class ensures you’re getting the full payload you expect.
  • Features such as Enhanced Traction Control, Dynamic Stability Control (DSC), Anti-lock Brake System (ABS), Machine Speed Limiting and Cruise Control improve machine responsiveness and controllability while improving cycle times.
Cat

SAFETY

  • Access and egress are improved by wide walkways, ladders, catwalks and service platforms; slip-resistant surfaces and guard rails; plus a wide secondary egress ladder and a rear service access ladder.
  • Superior control is delivered by a patented braking system that provides immediate, fade-resistant braking and retarding.
  • A 360 Surround View camera system gives the operator greater visibility to the ground around the truck. In addition, the standard Cat MineStar™ Detect Object Detection system combines radar and camera systems to warn operators about hazards within the immediate vicinity.
  • The optional Driver Safety System alerts the operator if fatigue or distraction are detected.
  • The cab can be equipped with High Efficiency Particulate Air (HEPA) filters to cut respirable dust penetration by 96% — reducing operator exposure to potentially hazardous substances.
Cat

OPERATOR COMFORT

  • The cab provides 34% more operator space than D-Series models. It’s 17% wider, offers 11% more legroom and 19% more shoulder room.
  • The cab is quieter and offers automated temperature control and cab filtration for a safer and more comfortable environment.
  • Controls, levers and switches are positioned for ease of use.
  • A walkthrough cab with fully adjustable center console, easy-to-adjust seat and increased leg room makes the cab ideal for operators of all sizes.
  • The next generation seat is four-point-restraint ready and incorporates features like thigh tilt and extensions, 30% recline, air adjustable side and lumbar bolsters, and heated and cooled cushions.
Cat

OPERATOR EFFICIENCY & PRODUCTIVITY

  • The optional Auto Hoist feature automatically raises the body and controls engine speed, minimizing cycle times.
  • Speed coaching gives operators real-time feedback on how to operate the truck to maximize its productivity, and advanced speed controls allow the operator to quickly and easily set a desired machine speed and control it on-the-fly.
  • The payload monitoring system comes with more accurate measurements, improved monitoring and an improved interface.
  • Operator identification provides seamless integration of operator preference, with custom settings stored and restored to the saved settings upon log-in.
  • Faster data transfers and higher resolution displays improve access to information. Machine data, controls and guidance information are consolidated onto two 10-inch screens.
Cat

SERVICEABILITY

  • The new modular HVAC system consolidates components so the entire system can be removed and replaced quickly.
  • A modular radiator reduces engine removal and installation time and enables rebuilds to be completed off the truck.
  • New remote flash and remote troubleshooting capabilities reduce machine downtime due to software up to 50%.
  • Time spent on regular maintenance procedures is reduced thanks to features such as extended service intervals; grouped ground-level maintenance and checkpoints; easy access to major components; the standard AutoLube system; and service platforms on the engine and transmission.
  • A 100% airless electric start option eliminates air system maintenance from the machine and improves uptime.
Cat

DURABILITY AND LONG LIFE

  • The 793 has been improved with longer-life components, extended service intervals and easier maintenance to deliver mechanical availability that is consistently greater than 90%.
  • The 793 is built on the durable 240-tonne (266-ton) frame, backed by unprecedented levels of virtual and in-iron validation.
  • A mild steel frame provides flexibility, durability and resistance to impact loads. Castings are used in high-stress areas and the integral 4-post ROPS cab provides increased strength.
  • Component life is enhanced thanks to the standard rear-axle continuous filtration feature. Cleaner oil helps promote longer lubrication that leads to longer life.
  • The frame, powertrain, engine and components are built to be rebuilt — delivering multiple lives of like-new performance at a fraction-of-new price.

Cat® MineStar™ Command for hauling takes advantage of the most sophisticated technologies available to deliver a next-generation haulage solution — one that boosts safety, productivity and availability on busy mine sites, especially those in difficult or remote locations. Command provides the fully integrated operation of autonomous mining systems, allowing them to haul more efficiently with near-continuous operation and move more with fewer people on site. Autonomous trucks operate safely around other equipment, light vehicles and personnel. Command trucks respond to calls to the shovel, move into position, haul to dump points and even report for maintenance — all without an operator on board.

Through regular monitoring of machine conditions, mines can adopt a more proactive approach to maintenance and repair. Equipment health data is a key contributor to that approach. Data helps mines identify equipment problems long before failure.

Accessing the right data at the right time is critical to improving operational intelligence and machine predictive analysis. Cat® MineStar™ Health helps you meet that need by connecting you to your machines and delivering that important information. The MineStar Health portfolio set consists of Connectivity Enablers that collect, convert and transmit equipment data; and Applications that visualize, analyze and report health equipment data.
