Caterpillar Autonomously Hauls Over 1 billion Tonnes of Material In Less Than a Year


During 2021 trucks equipped with Cat® MineStar™ Command for hauling have autonomously moved roughly 1.2 billion tonnes. To date, trucks equipped with Caterpillar’s autonomous haulage system (AHS) have traveled more than 147 million km (91.3 million mi) with zero loss-time injuries, nearly the same distance as traveling from the Earth to the sun and safely hauled more than 4 billion tonnes of material.

Marc Cameron, vice president, Caterpillar Resource Industries said, “Safety and sustainability continue to be top values in the mining industry. We are now entering our ninth year with zero loss-time injuries with Command for hauling, a testament to its safety record,”.

Autonomous trucks equipped with Command for hauling are operating at 18 mine sites by 10 companies across three continents. Commodities autonomously hauled include iron ore, oil sands, copper, coal and gold.
