Feature and benefits

The next generation Cat® 6015 Hydraulic Shovel lets you move more material at a low cost, so you can achieve production targets, deliver on your commitments, meet deadlines and maximize your profitability. With high tool carrying capacity, increased durability and the most powerful engine in its class, the Cat 6015 generates higher productivity and fuel efficiency than other shovels. And it’s offered with more and better options that let you match your machine to your operation — from access and cold weather packages to multiple stick and track pad options. In addition, a large range of buckets is available, giving you optimum payload and machine efficiency for your operation. And the 6015’s high tool carrying capacity gives you the ability to employ large buckets and move more in fewer cycles.

Safety glass, armored windshield and operator protective guards keep operators safe from hazardous conditions.
Safer access and egress with wide, anti-slip walkways and stairs.
Five emergency shutoff switches located all over the machine.
Improved in-cab visibility, as well as optional Cat Vision 360. Vision 360 integrates four cameras to give operators 360-degree awareness, reducing blind spots.
Ground-level service station reduces the need for service personnel to climb on the machine.

State-of-the-art cab offers increased comfort and control to help operators work harder and last longer.

Heated, pneumatically cushioned, fully adjustable suspension seat helps operators stay focused and productive for an entire shift. Adjustable lumbar support, wide arm and wrist rests and a wide, retractable seatbelt help minimize fatigue and keep operators alert.

In-cab HVAC and defroster keep ambient temperature comfortable, and improved filtration removes dust and particles. A second internal filter further purifies the air recirculated inside the cab.

Ergonomic joysticks and electro-hydraulic servo control give operators dynamic, precise control of the machine without hydraulic lines in the cab. Joystick console layout can be changed to suit operator preference.

7-inch touchscreen monitor offers easy access to critical machine information and service assistance.

Productivity & performance

Reliable, durable C27 engine, which delivers top performance over a long life in a variety of applications — including heavy construction, quarry and aggregates, and mining.
Faster cycle times achieved through the use of energy-efficient float valves that incorporate gravitational force to help lower the boom. This facilitates faster boom movements and allows operators to perform other functions while lowering the boom.
Proportional Priority Pressure Compensating hydraulic system varies hydraulic oil flow, resulting in smooth, predictable operation and greater efficiency. Using four hydraulic pumps with advanced controls reduces heat build-up and reduces wear.

Load Enhanced Anticipatory Control ensures faster and more consistent engine regulation by preventing lug, which reduces fuel consumption.
Engine Torque Load Control reduces hydraulic pump output based on available engine torque, desired engine speed, actual engine speed and estimated hydraulic load — providing power to the functions that need it to move material quickly and efficiently.
Next-generation Pilot Pump configuration offers variable, on-demand hydraulic flow. The pump increases flow when the control levers are moved, then reduces it when controls are returned to neutral. This results in at least 5.5% better fuel efficiency and improved performance.
Closed-loop swing system delivers faster cycle times and improved energy efficiency, while also generating less heat. Kinetic energy captured during the swing motion is fed back into the system during deceleration, providing more power to drive the main and auxiliary pumps.
Independent Oil Cooling system protects and extends the life of hydraulic components. The system is independent of return oil, achieving efficiency through the utilization of dedicated pumps that provide cooling capacity as needed, whether the engine is idling or under load. Additional efficiency is achieved via thermostatically controlled radiator fan speed.

Robust major structures are designed to exacting standards and made with high-strength steel and castings. The boom and stick are stress-relieved after welding, and welds at critical junctures are profiled and grounded.
New engine enclosure with removable top improves access to engine and pump areas, as well as enhanced fit-up of engine and hydraulic barriers.
Heavy-Duty track group handles high field loads with hardened roller dowels, improved idler design and larger bushings.
Rugged, heavy-duty undercarriage delivers increased uptime, longer service life and smoother tramming over rough terrain. With grease lubrication, GLT4 sealing technology and oil-filled rolling components, this undercarriage can last at least 2,000 hours longer than dry track designs.
Exclusive Positive Pin Retention 2 track design mechanically locks the link to the pin, helping the machine resist pin walking and link cracking for reliable sealing and maximum track life.
Durable Cat hoses work more than 10,000 hours without a single major hydraulic leak.

Serviceability

Enhanced warning levels for hydraulic oil temperature and visual inspection ports for slew drive pinions…

Enhanced warning levels for hydraulic oil temperature and visual inspection ports for slew drive pinions and ring gear make routine maintenance faster and easier. Electronic troubleshooting is also easier thanks to Cat Electronic Technician, which helps dealer service personnel diagnose and prevent issues.
Larger, heavier hydraulic tank and larger grease tank extend service intervals.
Reinforced engine enclosure and main control valve mounting bracket improve overall durability.
Improved hose routing for easier access and faster service.
New 1234yf refrigerant meets the most stringent refrigerant requirements.
Ground-level service station provides easy access to functions such as coolant, hydraulic oil, slew gear box oil, grease, diesel and engine oil. The service station features an emergency shutoff, Cat battery charging connector and indicator lights for full fuel tanks.
Proven, validated Cat electronic architecture and parts commonality with other machines make it easier to keep parts on hand and simplify technician training.

Greater connectivity with improved Product Link™ Elite system, which increases the availability of data provided by the 6015 and allows it to collect and transmit information into locally hosted or cloud-hosted applications such as Cat MineStar™ Solutions Health Office, Health Equipment Insights, or Equipment Care Advisor.
Enhanced diagnostic capabilities and troubleshooting functions with factory-installed Monitoring and Diagnostic System.
Earliest possible detection of faults, with Board Control System that uses sensors throughout the machine to monitor operating data, record faults, and notify the operator audibly and visually.
Factory-ready for Cat MineStar solutions, an integrated suite of operations and equipment management technologies that can improve the productivity, efficiency and safety of your operation.
