Load Every Truck Right The First Time

Say goodbye to money-wasting overloads, underloads and misloads with Cat Payload. It delivers precise on-the-go weighing, so operators of any skill level can get the right load in the truck, the first time and every time. That can help you improve fuel efficiency, reduce unnecessary wear and avoid overload. Payload’s low lift weigh and manual tip-off functions also help optimize the final bucket process and maximize efficiency.

Precise Payloads. Greater Efficiency. Lower Costs.

More operator efficiency means more payload accuracy. Assist technology adds semi-autonomous functions to Cat Payload to help your operators hit precise targets safely and accurately — and help you save time, fuel and machine wear. Auto Set Tires aids with proper digging technique. Auto Dig commands lift and tilt functions to perform a full dig cycle. And Programmable Kickouts automate repetitive tilt, lower and lift functions.

Advance Your Capabilities

Take your loading productivity to new levels with Advanced Payload, a system upgrade that expands on the features of Cat Payload. Tip-off assist adds automation to the final bucket process. Multitask mode tracks payload data and totals for two different trucks at the same time. Split mode lets you break a total weight into subtotals. You can even add Dispatch for Loading* to integrate your loader into the scale house process.

*Subscription and compatible scale house software required

Aggregate Handler: If you want to maximize bucket and payload size for your rehandling applications, consider an aggregate handler package. It adds counterweight to the back of your Cat wheel loader so you can upsize the bucket. Add low-profile tires for a wider stance, increased stability, better flotation and even more weight.
