The 18 builds on the success of the 16 and offers additional power, a wider moldboard and the possibility to use a more aggressive blade angle, making it an ideal fit for mining operations that run 172-tonne (190-ton) or smaller trucks. The 18 enhances operational efficiencies by increasing coverage and reducing the number of passes required to complete the width of the road in certain applications. The 18 includes features that provide large benefits on operating cost reduction, uptime, performance improvements, and enhanced safety.

Overview
BETTER COMFORT AND CONTROL
<ul><li>18 foot moldboard and straight 10 inch by 1-3/8 inch cutting edge, allowing operators to increase coverage by 12.5% compared to a 16 foot moldboard. The operator can use a more aggressive blade angle and still be able to deposit the windrow away from the tires to protect tire life. More aggressive blade angles reduce the load on the machine and maintain better ground speed for enhanced performance.</li><li>Variable Horse Power (VHP) provides the ideal amount of power in all gears to efficiently perform diverse motor grader applications while protecting structure and drive train components.</li><li>With optimized combination of weight and balance the 18delivers enhanced traction and the ability to keep ground speed, especially when carrying a large load on the board.</li><li>Emissions reduction technology is transparent and automated with no action required from the operator.</li><li>Rear Ripper / Scarifier penetrates tough material fast for easier movement with the moldboard. Standard ripper with three shanks can add four more for additional versatility.</li><li>Multi-color, touch screen Information Display is the operator's gateway to monitoring machine performance and offers a convenient way of modifying machine parameters to tailor performance to the current task. Provides access to service information for initial troubleshooting.</li><li>Cat Product Link™ Elite is deeply integrated into the machine, helping take the guesswork out of equipment management. Easy access to timely information like machine location, hours, fuel usage, idle time and event codes via the online VisionLink® user interface can help effectively manage fleets and lower operating costs.</li><li>Manage your fleet of machines while reducing fuel burn with Cat Production Measurement System option. The Efficiency Coach and Application Segmentation work together to monitor operators and machines simultaneously. Measure your jobsite’s efficiency and productivity from anywhere on the website.</li></ul>

COMPATIBLE WITH
Cat® Detect with Smart Camera
The Cat® Detect with Smart Camera safety technology utilizes a smart camera, an in-cab display and alerts to help your operator keep track of people near the machine.
View ModelsCat® Detect with Surround Cameras
The Cat® Detect with Surround Camera system uses three or four cameras and an in-cab display to give operators a view of their surroundings. It's an effective way to increase safety at the site.
View ModelsCat Grade with Cross Slope for Motor Graders
Cat® Grade with Cross Slope is an integrated system that enables operators to achieve grade faster and more accurately by automating the cross slope of the blade, allowing the operator to do more in the same amount of time.
