Cat 2D E-fence for Excavators

Cat 2D E-fence for Excavators

Overview

Cat® 2D E-fence keeps the front linkage within a predefined work area to avoid hazards like traffic. 2D E-fence uses data from position sensors to automatically stop motion when the front linkage reaches the defined boundaries.

Benefits & Features

Lower Costs, Improve Safety

    • Minimize jobsite costs by avoiding downtime due to a damaged excavator.
    • Avoid possible fines from damaging underground utilities or other structures.
    • Work safer with less ground personnel checking grade in the trench or around your excavator.
    • Easy setup and simple operation reduce operating fatigue from overswinging or overdigging.

Work Above Ground

    • E-ceiling helps you avoid overhead obstacles such as power lines, bridges, and overhead structures.
    • E-ceiling sets your height boundary above your excavator through the touchscreen monitor to stop your boom and stick from breaking that boundary.

Work Below Grade

    • E-floor helps you avoid fiber optic cables and underground utilities.
    • E-floor sets your depth boundary below your excavator through the touchscreen monitor to stop your boom and stick from breaking that boundary.
