High Performance

More power to the pumps, wider undercarriage, and heavy counterweight enable up to 10 percent more productivity.

Match the excavator to the job with three power modes – Power, Smart, and Eco. Power mode is maximum power all the time. Smart mode automatically matches engine and hydraulic power to digging conditions, providing maximum power when needed and reducing power when it isn’t to help save fuel. Eco mode reduces engine speed and keeps it constant to reduce fuel consumption.

Reinforced structures ensure long-term durability in harsh environments.

Work up to 4500 m (14,764 ft) above sea level.

Standard high-ambient temperature capability is 52° C (125° F) with cold start capability at –18° C (0° F).

An optional battery operated engine heater enables starting at –32° C (–25.6° F).

Auto hydraulic oil warmup gets you to work faster in cold temperatures and helps prolong the life of components.

Two levels of filtration protect the engine from low-quality diesel fuel.

Grease sealed between track pins and bushings reduces travel noise and prevents debris from entering to increase undercarriage life.

Efficiency Through Technology

Boost productivity with standard Cat Grade with 2D system – includes indicate-only and laser capability.

Want a 3D system to improve your digging results? Caterpillar's single antenna global navigation satellite system (GNSS) makes it easy by giving you visual and auditory guidance to grade. Plus, you can create and edit designs on the touchscreen monitor while you’re on the job. If your application calls for a dual antenna system, it’s easy to upgrade.

Upgrade to our dual antenna GNSS for maximum grading efficiency. The system lets you create and edit designs on the touchscreen monitor while you’re on the job, or you can have the plan design sent to the excavator to make your work easier. Plus, you get added benefits of avoidance zones, cut and fill mapping, lane guidance, and augmented reality along with advanced positioning capability.

Standard Grade Assist helps you stay on grade – simply and effortlessly – with single-lever digging.

Dig with guidance to depth, slope, and horizontal distance to grade. You can set up to four different depth and slope targets to help save time and money.

Automatically stop excavator swing at operator-defined set points in truck loading and trenching applications with Swing Assist.

Cat Payload helps you achieve precise load targets to improve your operating efficiency. Pick up a load of material--with a bucket and thumb combination or grapple and clamshell attachments--and get a real-time weight estimate without swinging.

Combine Payload with VisionLink® and remotely manage your production targets.

Operator Coaching is an in-cab system that recognizes specific opportunities for operators to be more productive and prevent unnecessary machine wear and tear.

Start the engine with the push of a button; use a Bluetooth key fob or Operator ID passcode.

Program each joystick button, including power mode, response, and pattern, using Operator ID; the machine will remember what you set each time you go to work.

Trouble cutting through tough material? Auto dig boost gives you an automatic power increase when you need it for better bucket penetration, shorter cycle times, and greater payloads.

Need more lift during your shift? Auto heavy lift gives you more power exactly when you need it for as long as you need it.

Make moving the excavator much easier with optional Cat Stick Steer. Simply push a button and use one hand to travel and turn instead of both hands or feet on levers or pedals.

Make operating easier with the touch of a joystick button. An auxiliary relay allows you to power on or turn off a CB radio, beacon light, and even a dust suppression watering system without taking your hands off the joysticks.

Cat continues to improve user interface functionality for operators of all skill levels. The touchscreen monitor is an easy-to-use operating tool that presents the jobsite dashboard with an intuitive format.

Productivity applications are displayed in grid-view to read on-the-go, and touchscreen navigation is programmed to make sure job performance continues without any hold ups.

Protect your hammer from overworking. Auto hammer stop warns you after 15 seconds of continuous firing and then automatically shuts it off after 30 seconds – all to prevent wear and tear on the attachment and excavator.

Not sure how a function works or how to maintain the excavator? Always have the operator’s manual at your fingertips in the touchscreen monitor.

Sustainability

The Cat® C9.3B engine meets U.S. EPA Tier 4 Final, EU Stage V, and Japan 2014 emission standards.

Cat diesel engines are required to use ULSD (ultra-low sulfur diesel fuel with 15 ppm of sulfur or less) or ULSD blended with the following lower-carbon intensity fuels** up to: 20% biodiesel FAME (fatty acid methyl ester)* or 100% renewable diesel, HVO (hydrogenated vegetable oil) and GTL (gas-to-liquid) fuels. Refer to guidelines for successful application. Please consult your Cat dealer or “Caterpillar Machine Fluids Recommendations” (SEBU6250) for details.

Cat Grade technologies combine advanced guidance with optional automated machine control helping you reach grading targets while reducing fuel burn and greenhouse gas emissions by improving efficiency, job site productivity, and accuracy.

Auto Engine Speed Control reduces unnecessary fuel burn and greenhouse gas emissions by allowing the engine to automatically go into idle mode when the machine is not working.

Cat® Payload for excavators provides on-the-go material weighing which helps reduce fuel burn by improving loading efficiency, job site productivity, and eliminating trips to the scale.

Cat® 2D E-fence keeps the front linkage within a predefined work area to avoid hazards such as traffic - not only helping keep personnel safe but also helps you avoid repairs, downtime, and costly job site fines.

Extended maintenance intervals not only reduce downtime but decrease the amount of fluid and filters that are replaced over the life of the machine.

Cat VisionLink® displays the CO2 emissions for monitored assets, calculated by fuel type for the Runtime Fuel Burned each day in a selected date range.

Remote Flash minimizes downtime and maintenance time while keeping your asset running with maximum efficiency. Alerts for machine updates are sent virtually from your Cat dealer and updates can be deployed without a dealer technician needing to be onsite.

Remote Troubleshoot decreases maintenance time and keeps your machine running with maximum efficiency by allowing your Cat dealer to virtually test the machine while working. Once a problem is identified, a technician can fix it the first time, saving time and money.

*Engines with no aftertreatment devices can use higher blends, up to 100% biodiesel (for use of blends higher than 20% biodiesel, consult your Cat dealer).

**Tailpipe greenhouse gas emissions from lower-carbon intensity fuels are essentially the same as traditional fuels.

340 Variable Angle Boom Configuration

The Cat® 340 Variable Angle Boom 6.6m (21'8") (VAB) provides one extra articulation to maximize your application range while minimizing the space required to rotate in tight earthmoving and demolition sites, allowing you to work closer to the machine.

On-Board Cat Technology Helps Increase Efficiency

This configuration is equipped with standard Cat technologies, including Standard Grade Assist, Cat Payload, and 2D E-Fence, which boosts operating efficiency through technology and is compatible with VisionLink®, Cat PL161 attachment locator, Remote Troubleshoot, Remote Flash, and Cat Inspect, allowing you to eliminate the guesswork in managing your equipment.
Cat Grade Assist for excavators automates boom and stick movements for more accurate cuts with less effort. It uses machine position sensors and operator-defined depth and slope parameters to enable single-lever digging, helping improve efficiency.
Cat Payload helps you achieve precise load targets to improve your operating efficiency. Pick up a load of material--with a bucket and thumb combination or grapple and clamshell attachments--and get a real-time weight estimate without swinging.
The 2D E-Fence prevents the excavator from moving outside operator-defined set points. The system works with thumb and bucket combinations, hammer, grapple, and clamshell attachments.

Demolition Cab Compatibility

For demanding demolition sites, the 340 VAB is compatible with the optional demolition cab that tilts up to 30° for a more productive and comfortable sight line.
The front windshield and roof window are made with EN 356 P5A glazing for enhanced impact resistance and have one-piece parallel wipers with three intermittent settings and washer spray.
Standard Operator Protective Guards (OPG) help protect the roof and front reinforced EN356 P5A laminated windows from falling debris during demolition while helping to maintain visibility on the jobsite.
The optional demolition cab features a larger premium heated and cooled seat with a 254 mm (10 in) high-resolution touchscreen monitor. The monitor allows operators to view the active stability monitoring system, which gives audible and visual alerts when the work tool's position approaches its stability limit.
Get in and out of the cab with ease using the tip-up left console.
Control the excavator comfortably with easy-to-reach controls located in front of you.
Stow your gear with plenty of in-cab storage beneath and behind the seat, overhead, and in the consoles.
Use the standard radio’s USB ports and Bluetooth® technology to connect personal devices and make hands-free calls.
Rearview and side-view cameras are standard. You can also upgrade to 360° visibility to view objects and personnel around the machine in a single view.
Grease sealed between track pins and bushings reduces travel noise and prevents debris from entering to increase undercarriage life.

The 340 VAB configuration is available for Europe only.
