15.03.2015 - Malaga/Spain. Having introduced its C-series, in 2014, Caterpillar has now completed its ATD range with three new models: the 735C, the 740C EJ and the 745C. Bauforum24 took a closer look at the largest model, the 745C, which, with its higher payload, marks a major development for Caterpillar.

The 745C features a completely new powertrain. It?s powered by a Cat C18 Acert six-cylinder turbo engine with a power rating of 381 kW. That?s an increase of 4 percent more power than its predecessor, the B-series. Caterpillar claims an improved fuel efficiency of 10 percent.

To meet the stage IV emission standards , Caterpillar equipped the 745C with its fully integrated Cat Clean Emissions Module. This consists of a diesel particulate filter, which regenerates automatically without any work-cycle disruption, and a selective catalytic reduction system with diesel exhaust fluid.

For less regulated countries, Caterpillar also offers it's ADTs with engines to meet different emission standards.

Along with a new engine, Caterpillar also changed other components of the powertrain.

To ensure optimum traction, the new C series truck is equipped with Automatic Traction Control which adjusts the level of engagement for the clutch locks in its inter-axle differential and in its three axle differentials. The system makes these adjustments while the machine is in motion which means that operator intervention is not required.
