The new shovel was designed for high production and easy service using a modular construction allowing easy access to components and simple shipping and assembly. "This is a flexible, fast machine," says Real Moreau, Assistant General Foreman, Rosebel Gold Mine, Suriname. The mine has been testing a pre-production version of the 6020B. "It gives us high performance and provides the production we want. Cost efficiency, fuel efficiency, full power—this is what we get from the 6020B." The shovel is powered by a 778-kW (1,043-hp) Cat C32 ACERT™ engine. Dedicated pumps move hydraulic oil through the cooling circuit when needed to maintain optimum oil temperature and keep the machine working even in the most demanding climates. The 6020B also features an automatic lubricant system. The hydraulically driven pump supplies grease to the swing bear- ing, the swing gearbox bearing and all pivot points of the attachment. "The 6020B is configured as a back- hoe and delivers superior digging forces for high productivity," says Caterpillar. "It handles a standard bucket size of 12.0 cubic metres (15.7 cubic yards). Cat MultiPlus™ rock buckets are suited for standard rock and soil applications, and high abrasion rock buckets are more heav- ily guarded for use in dense rock and aggressive digging conditions." The 6020B comes equipped with diagnostic capabilities and troubleshoot- ing functions to monitor operating data, record faults, and notify the operator audi- bly and visually. n www.resourceworld.com
