Meet the Iron
The centerpiece of every Caterpillar MINExpo experience is an exhibit filled with yellow iron, and MINExpo 2021 is no exception. We are displaying a number of new products — from an autonomous water truck and battery-electric underground loader, to an autonomous drill, an autonomous loader and two new dozers — one so new we brought a prototype from our proving ground.
