Overview
Expected Productivity. Required Reliability.
The CAT® 6030 hydraulic mining shovel is owned by more customers than any other Cat product - and for good reason. It provides the highest engine power in its class, as well as the mobility and flexibility you need with a 300-ton machine, to deliver the productivity you expect and the reliability you demand.
The 6030 offers a standard bucket capacity of 17 m3 (22.2 yd3) in shovel configuration, and 16.5 m3 (21.5 yd3) in backhoe configuration with the unique Cat TriPower™ system. The 6030 is ideal for loading Cat 777 to 793 mining trucks.
But we are always looking for ways to improve the 6030. As the only shovel in its class to be offered with two engines, it is available with a Tier 4 Final engine that eliminates the need for diesel exhaust fluid (DEF), saving time and reducing maintenance costs.
AdvantagesMore Powerful and Productive Than the Competition
With superior power by 18%, superior penetration force by 24%, and superior digging force by 17%
100% Cat Hose Assemblies
That offer 20 times greater abrasion resistance and a doubled lifespan
More Durable
Thanks to the safe and efficient C27 Cat engines with non-DEF aftertreatment

Security
The safety glass on all windows and the armored windshield protect the drivers. An easily accessible standard stop switch located in the cabin allows the electrical circuit to be cut off in case of emergency. Safer access and exit thanks to non-slip walkways, a 45-degree hydraulic access ladder, and an emergency exit ladder located in close proximity to the cabin. Safer maintenance thanks to a lockable starter and battery isolation switch, improved routing and separation of hydraulic pipes and electrical cables, pressure relief valves, and protective covers on all hot surfaces. Excellent visibility, enhanced by an optional dual-camera system and standard high-brightness LED projectors and maintenance lighting.
Cabin
Intuitive and informative integrated electronic circuits, larger color touchscreen that directly displays diagnostic data and vital machine data. Maintaining ambient temperature with an optional dual HVAC system. Easily accessible ergonomic manipulators with an electro-hydraulic servo control that provides dynamic and precise response without hydraulic pipes present in the cabin. Clear organization with reduced sound emissions, with no hydraulic pipes in the cabin or cabin module. Multi-adjustable pneumatic seat with heating, plus auxiliary instructor seat with retractable seat belt.
Reliability And Longevity
Turret frame and tractor frame with extra-strong CAT® HD undercarriage, which extends lifespan and offers longer durability while reducing operating costs. Fixed axle rollers and extra-strong idler wheels provide superior performance, longer useful lifespan, reduced friction and internal overheating, as well as lifetime lubrication and Duo-Cone seals for reduced maintenance costs. Extra-strong complete chain that allows for high loads on the field and reduced pitch extension wear, increasing chain lifespan by 20% to 40%. Structures designed and manufactured to withstand the most intensive excavation conditions, with high-strength steel, extra-strong castings at all equipment pivot points, and arms that undergo stress-relief annealing after welding.
Performance and Productivity
The durable C27 Cat engines offer unparalleled performance, high power output, proven reliability, and have demonstrated their ability to withstand the harsh conditions of mining sites worldwide. Superior productivity, lower energy and fuel consumption, and reduced component wear thanks to an intelligent pump management system, which continuously evaluates the actual operating values of the engine and hydraulic circuit compared to the defined values and adjusts the pump output. Reduced cycle times through the use of float regulators instead of engagement pumps to lower the boom. This speeds up boom movements and allows for other simultaneous functions, such as bucket straightening, as well as arm extension and retraction. Safer, simpler, and faster mound digging operation thanks to a unique TriPower design, which generates superior mechanical leverage and control. Increased productivity and superior availability thanks to the twin engine concept, which allows for up to 65% full production capacity with a single engine.
Soil Attack Buckets and Tools
Buckets and ground engaging tools designed to optimize long lifespan and productivity, and ideally suited to your excavator and application. Integrated to function as part of a machine circuit, allowing you to achieve optimal productivity levels and minimize cost per ton. Variety of sizes and wear packages for ideal adaptation to your excavator and application. Achieve optimal payload in combination with Cat ground engaging tools and wear components. Wear sets that protect your investment, including special reinforcement material and lip protection, fin guards, and heel guards.
Easy Maintenance
Better organized hoses and components, plus integration of Cat hoses and fittings, offering unmatched reliability and performance as well as the possibility of local supply of all Cat materials. The maintenance station allows easy access to the following functions: coolant, hydraulic oil, pivot system gearbox oil, grease, diesel, and engine oil. Reduced maintenance downtime thanks to increased engine oil and engine filter replacement intervals, which go from 500 to 1,000 hours. The clear layout of components on the superstructure facilitates access and maintenance of coolant expansion tanks, air intake filters, oil tank breather, heating/ventilation/air conditioning unit, grease reservoir, exhaust, starter, and battery cut-off switch. Access to the ET CAT electronic device, which facilitates the diagnosis of potential engine problems and can help prevent future issues.
Durability
The C27 engines, subject to very strict standards, comply with the American EPA Tier 4 Final and European Stage V emissions standards, which avoids the need for diesel exhaust fluid (DEF) and saves time and reduces costs during maintenance. Less heat and increased efficiency thanks to the closed-loop circuit. Reduced waste production and lower operating costs due to increased similarity of systems and components, as well as a reduction in unique part numbers. Preservation of raw materials, energy conservation, and emission reduction through the Cat Reman program, which restores end-of-life components to a like-new condition.
