The Caterpillar 340 Excavator represents the pinnacle of large-scale construction equipment, engineered to deliver exceptional power, durability, and efficiency for the most demanding industrial applications. As a flagship model in Caterpillar’s next-generation excavator lineup, the 340 combines advanced technology with rugged construction to meet the needs of large mining operations, heavy construction projects, and major infrastructure developments worldwide.

Powered by the industry-leading Cat C9.3B ACERT™ engine, the 340 generates an impressive 259 kW of net power while adhering to strict global emission standards, including EU Stage V and U.S. EPA Tier 4 Final. This high-performance engine, paired with a state-of-the-art hydraulic system, delivers superior digging force and lifting capacity while optimizing fuel efficiency—reducing operational costs by up to 22% compared to previous models. With an operating weight of 38,700 kg, the 340 provides exceptional stability even when handling heavy loads in the most challenging terrain, from rugged mining sites to large-scale earthmoving projects.

Operator productivity and comfort are paramount in the 340’s design, featuring a spacious, climate-controlled cab with industry-leading visibility, low noise levels (65 dB(A) operating sound), and intuitive controls that minimize fatigue during extended shifts. Integrated technology enhances operational efficiency, including Cat Link telematics for real-time machine monitoring, remote diagnostics, and predictive maintenance alerts. Whether deployed in large-scale mining operations, heavy construction, or major infrastructure projects, the Caterpillar 340 Excavator sets new standards for performance, reliability, and cost-effectiveness in the large excavator category.
