Technology package upgrades announced for Cat medium dozers

CATERPILLAR has introduced two new technology package upgrades for its medium dozer line.

Formerly ARO with Assist, Cat Assist with ARO (attachment ready option) suite of features will be included as a standard feature on Cat D4, D5, D6, D6 XE and D7 models.

Additionally, a new Cat Grade with 3D Ready option is said to provide more flexibility for customers upgrading to Cat Grade with 3D on D4, D5 and D6 machines.

Now standard, Cat Assist with ARO ensures every new Cat D4–D7 dozer comes equipped with the suite of Assist features that can be easily upgraded to Cat Grade 3D. These features include Stable Blade, Traction Control, Auto Carry, Blade Load Monitor, Slope Assist, Steer Assist, and ARO.

Cat Grade with 3D uses a GPS signal to automatically adjust blade lift and tilt movements.
