CASE 9060B CRAWLER EXCAVATOR

Technical Description

The Case 9060B is a heavy-duty crawler excavator engineered for demanding earthmoving and construction applications. This machine weighs 99,950 lbs and features a powerful Cummins M11-C320 turbocharged engine delivering 300 horsepower and 958 lb-ft of torque, enabling efficient operation across extended work cycles. The excavator accommodates four interchangeable boom and stick configurations, allowing operators to prioritize reach, digging depth, or vertical wall capabilities depending on project requirements. The primary configuration achieves a maximum cutting height of 38.4 feet and digging depth of 32.2 feet, with horizontal reach extending 44.6 feet along the ground. The 9060B utilizes a robust 900mm track system with 51 shoes per side, distributing its weight across a 12-foot-wide footprint while maintaining a ground pressure of just 7.7 psi, making it suitable for sensitive terrain. Its hydraulic system supplies 89.9 gallons per minute at 4,620 psi relief pressure through a 118.9-gallon fluid reservoir, providing responsive bucket control and smooth swing operation at 8.5 rpm. The machine accommodates bucket capacities ranging from 1.7 to 3.3 cubic yards, with the reference bucket holding 2.5 cubic yards. Operationally, the 9060B travels at maximum speeds of 3.1 mph with a drawbar pull of 71,000 lbs, while ground clearance of 1.9 feet and tail swing radius of 11.9 feet enable safe maneuvering in confined work zones. The 24-volt electrical system, 172-gallon fuel capacity, and comprehensive onboard fluid systems—including 15.9 gallons of cooling system capacity and 9 gallons of engine oil—support extended operational periods with minimal maintenance intervals.
