Equipment Overview
The Cat 994 is Caterpillar’s flagship mining wheel loader, introduced in 1990 and the top customer choice in its size class for over 25 years. It delivers 1,394 kW (1,870 hp) and a 240,020 kg operating weight, suited to the largest mine loading applications with bucket capacities up to 24.4 m³.
Power comes from a Cat 3516E engine, with four electronically controlled, fully variable piston pumps delivering fast, productive cycles and lower fuel consumption compared to the previous 994F generation. Load-sensing hydraulic steering gives precise positioning for tight loading areas, and highly durable structures with field-proven Z-bar lift arms are built to withstand the toughest loading conditions across multiple lifecycles.
