Caterpillar Unveils 'Cat Command for Compaction' Automation System

摘要

Caterpillar Cat Command for Compaction automates the soil-compaction process and assists in achieving compaction quality. An in-cab display uses a touchscreen interface, and the system connects to common base stations. The operator uses the machine to map the boundaries of the area to be compacted and enters compaction parameters. Once the operator places the machine in "auto," the system controls propulsion, steering, and vibration. Recent jobs are saved in the system and can be accessed through the touchscreen interface.
