2025 Caterpillar Underground Mining Trucks AD63
More Payload. More Power. More Profitability.The Cat® AD63 Underground Truck is designed for high production, lower costs and increased efficiency. It’s built tough to stand up to the harsh conditions of your site, and features a number of improvements over its predecessor, including a 5% greater payload and more torque. The world-class cab keeps operators safe and comfortable all shift long, and new enhancements help ensure the safety of everyone working in, on or around the machine. It’s powered by a Cat C27 engine that meets EU Stage V Emissions Standards for cleaner performance, as well as reduced ventilation costs. And its rugged construction and simplified maintenance make for longer life and lower operating costs, so you can get the most out of your investment.
Features may include:- Safer access and egress with anti-skid upper deck surfaces, new and improved upper deck handrails, 3-point cabin and machine access, additional access via the front grill and alternate exit via windows.
- Mechanical powertrain and power shift transmission that offer unmatched operating efficiency and control on steep grades and in poor underfoot conditions.
- Torque converter lock-up clutch that combines the high rimpull and smooth shifting of a torque converter drive with the efficiency and performance of direct drive.
- Two independent variable rebound suspension cylinders that dissipate haul road forces for longer frame life and a comfortable ride.
- Radial seal air filters that are easy to change, reducing time required for air filter maintenance; plus upsized radiator surround has to improve access to pre-cleaner and filters.
