Durable and Dependable Cutting System
- The rotor drive system is engineered to maximize torque transfer and features a heavy-duty dry clutch, automatic belt-tensioning, and two high tensile (five-rib) belts to drive the rotor
- Durable, reinforced cutting chamber
- Ample access and lighting for bit changes and rotor service
- Hardened full length side plate skis, inboard ski shoe, and anti-slab shoes are designed to reduce wear and maintenance
High Production System K Rotors Optimize Cutting Capability
- Cat System K rotors can be used for numerous applications and feature efficient material flow with a uniform cutting pattern
- A fastener-free design secures toolholders in place without a retaining pin, bolt or setscrew, speeding up replacement and eliminating the need for torquing
- Toolholders, base blocks and kicker paddles are built from high-strength alloy steel that’s abrasion resistant for extended life
- Optional Cat Diamond bits are designed to stay sharp and last significantly longer than a carbide bit (ideal for bituminous applications without obstacles such as interstates or motorways)
Efficient Material Removal
- High-capacity conveyors efficiently remove milled material with variable speed discharge control
- Belt speed can be adjusted to match material type and production rate, while the built in “boost” feature provides a temporary surge in belt speed to eject material faster and farther
- A wide opening and seamless belt effectively clear the rotor chamber
- The belt reverses direction to easily remove material from the conveyor during clean-up, and easy-access covers allow for quick inspection and cleaning of the rollers
- Conveyer hydraulically folds for transportation and maintenance
Easy Operation
- Access integrated technology and automated systems through easy-to-use controls and a highly intuitive touchscreen interface
- Ground displays utilize a robust mounting system that easily drops into multiple mounting locations without tightening clamps or fasteners and quickly detaches for storage without disconnecting harnesses

- Four, ground-level 16-button keypads give operators convenient access to various machine functions
- Rear keypads include controls for leg height, water spray, sideplates, moldboard, rear door and rear steering
- Flush mounted front keypads include controls for the conveyor, sideplates, anti-slab, high pressure washdown, water spray, inboard ski and fuel fill pump
- A Standby/Resume button pauses major machine functions and lowers engine speed to conserve fuel during truck exchanges, and when ready to resume milling a push of the button automatically brings the machine back up to production at the same speed
- Once a rotor speed is selected and the cutting pattern is established, use of the Cruise Control button stores the propel speed and repeatedly returns to that same speed for every pass, and when used in combination with Standby/Resume allows for easy and precise pattern control
- High-visibility, color LED lightbars help crews easily identify water tank level day or night and from further distances (included in optional enhanced LED light package)

Sustainability
- The Cat® C18 engine meets U.S. EPA Tier 4 Final, EU Stage V and Korea Stage V emission standards
- Cat U.S. EPA Tier 4 Final, EU Stage V, and Korea Stage V Final diesel engines are required to use ULSD (ultra-low sulfur diesel fuel with 15 ppm of sulfur or less) or ULSD blended with the following lower-carbon intensity fuels* up to: 20% biodiesel FAME (fatty acid methyl ester) or 100% renewable diesel, HVO (hydrotreated vegetable oil) and GTL (gas-to-liquid) fuels. Please consult your Cat dealer or “Caterpillar Machine Fluids Recommendations” (SEBU6250) for details.
*Tailpipe greenhouse gas emissions from lower-carbon intensity fuels are essentially the same as traditional fuels. - Engine Idle Speed Management helps maximize fuel efficiency and reduce greenhouse gas emissions by elevating engine speed to an intermediate idle to complete specific tasks and returning to low idle when finished.
- Automatic Load Control helps you save fuel and reduces greenhouse gas emissions by automatically matching milling speed to engine load for maximum production at peak efficiency.
- Standby/Resume pauses major machine functions and lowers engine speed to conserve fuel and helps reduce greenhouse gas emissions during truck exchanges.
- Traction Control maintains consistent traction to increase machine efficiency, helps reduce fuel burn and greenhouse gas emissions.
- Cat Scheduled Oil Sampling (S•O•SSM) Services helps reveal excessive wear, contaminated fluids or other “unseen” issues that can shorten component life. In many cases, you can extend oil and coolant change intervals by using fluid monitoring. Consult your Cat dealer or the machine’s operation and maintenance manual for more information.
- Cat Grade with Grade and Slope for cold planers allows for accurate material planning to help reduce overages during the paving process and increase final project quality for a longer lasting road surface.
- Don’t waste fuel idling. Cat VisionLink online fleet monitoring helps you manage idle time and reduce fuel burn and greenhouse gas emissions.
- VisionLink displays the CO2 emissions for monitored assets, calculated by fuel type for the Runtime Fuel Burned each day in a selected date range.
