Caterpillar’s 9,600 square-foot exhibit at CES 2024 will focus on the manufacturer’s electric machines and energy solutions.
At the heart of the CES 2024 exhibit will be the battery-powered Cat R1700 XE LHD underground loader and a 301.9 electric compact excavator.
The loader has a 16.5-ton payload and reaches a top speed of 11.2 mph. According to Cat, the battery charges in less than 20 minutes when paired with two of the mobile Cat MEC500 chargers.
Cat’s compact electric excavator is powered by a Cat 48 volt, 32kWh battery with an approximate runtime of up to 8 hours. It has an onboard AC charger for overnight charging, and there also is a DC fast-charging option.
Also being displayed at CES will be a Cat 750V electric motor and inverter, components that support a variety of machines and power systems.
