Cat 740 EJ Articulated Truck Specifications
Dumpers Specs
The Cat 740 EJ Articulated Truck is a highly versatile and productive hauling solution designed to excel in demanding Australian earthmoving, mining, and civil construction projects. Featuring an innovative ejector body, this machine allows for self-cleaning material dispersal on the move, eliminating the risk of tipping on unstable terrain or under overhead obstacles. Its robust three-axle configuration ensures exceptional traction and stability across challenging, low-traction underfoot conditions.
Engineered for maximum efficiency and operator comfort, the 740 EJ integrates advanced Caterpillar drivetrain technology, including automatic traction control and a smooth-shifting transmission. This articulated hauler is ideal for large-scale infrastructure developments, quarry operations, and site preparation works where safety, speed, and reliable payload delivery are paramount to maintaining tight project schedules.

Additional Information
The Cat 740 EJ stands out due to its specialised ejector body design, which utilises a powerful double-acting hydraulic cylinder to push loads out cleanly without raising the dump body. This engineering feature significantly enhances site safety by allowing safe operation under overhead powerlines, inside tunnels, and on side slopes where traditional tippers risk rolling over. Additionally, the machine features Cat Advanced Automatic Traction Control (AATC), which proactively applies inter-axle and cross-axle differential locks on the go, reducing tyre wear and maintaining optimal momentum without requiring operator intervention.
