The Cat® 793 Mining Truck has been dubbed “the gold standard in cost per ton” for its ability to deliver high availability and productivity in a wide variety of applications. This popular industry workhorse has been proving itself on mine sites around the world for decades. And today’s 793 raises the bar, with dozens of new and improved features that help set it apart.

Compared to competitive trucks, the new 793:

• Is more than 10% more fuel efficient, with more productivity, lower fuel consumption and industry-leading powertrain efficiency.
• Delivers up to 10% faster cycle times, traveling at a class-leading speed on 10% grade with a top speed of 60 kph / 37 mph. It has the capability to travel at a maximum 28% loaded.

The 793 also offers up to 6% more payload than the previous model. It carries the highest payload for rated machine weight, plus offers an additional 3-tonne (3.3-ton) empty weight reduction with the Max Payload body.

Productivity is further enhanced in the cab, where operators sit 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. 

But productivity isn’t possible if the truck is not available. The 793 has been updated with longer-life components, extended service intervals and easier maintenance to deliver mechanical availability that is consistently greater than 90%. And the truck is built on a durable 240-tonne (265-ton) frame, backed by high levels of virtual and in-iron validation.

These improvements — and many more — take an already proven truck to the next level of productivity.
