Power Train – Engine
The Cat® C18 engine with ACERT™ Technology uses advanced engine technology to reduce emissions without after-treatment. The turbocharged, aftercooled 6-cylinder engine has faster response for superior performance in demanding applications.
Power Train – Transmission
The Cat seven-speed power shift transmission matched with the Cat C18 engine with ACERT Technology provides constant power and efficiency over a wide operating speed range for optimal power train performance.
Structures
The 772 features a mild-steel, box-section type frame to deliver durability and long life with low operating costs. Castings and forgings are strategically placed in high-stress areas to evenly distribute stresses and provide long fatigue life.
Operator’s Station
The 772 features an all new operator station with enhanced visibility, increased operator space and ergonomically designed controls that set new industry standards for operator comfort. All controls and gauges are positioned for optimum efficiency and total machine control.
Engine – Power Train Integration
