CATERPILLAR® R1600H Underground Mining Load Haul Dump (LHD) Loaders
FASTER. SMARTER. SAFER. The Cat® R1600H Underground Loader has a powertrain tuned specifically for speed on grade — mastering poor floor conditions and delivering maximum production in all speed ranges. The loader offers a number of safety features, from FOPS/ROPS certified cab and safety glass to the ability to incorporate autonomous operation. Thanks to the extreme durability designed into the structure, the R1600H can be productive through up to four rebuilds.
1. Multiple bucket options available including dump buckets, ejector buckets and bolt-together buckets, plus full range of Cat® Ground Engaging Tools (GET) to achieve best productivity while maximizing bucket life
2. Proven frame design for increased durability
3. Spread hitch design, which widens the distance between upper and lower hitch plates to distribute forces and increase bearing life 8 2 6 7 12 4 1 5 3 9 THE CAT® R1600H UNDERGROUND LOADER
4. Proven Z-bar loader linkage geometry, which generates powerful breakout force, and an increased rack back angle for better bucket loading and material retention
5. Aggressive hydraulic performance for machine responsiveness and improved loading times
6. Continuous focus on safety and comfort including ROPS/FOPS cabin with ergonomic layout, plus interior and exterior safety details
7. Color Multi-Purpose Display (CMPD) and cluster gauge modules placed in front of the operator, which makes it a more comfortable environment to view during operation
