Since May 2019, the CAT fighter competition has held 33 qualification matches in various regions of China for multiple rounds of selection. Due to the focus on highly skilled people in the industry, caterpillar's people-oriented philosophy, and commitment to. Create value for customers ” Advanced products and smart technology are the foundation of this competition. The operators in this competition are equipped with a new generation of CAT excavator equipped with intelligent technology, which will test their agility, operation skills and construction skills using CAT intelligent technology. How to combine technology with operational experience to improve efficiency is also one of the highlights of the game.
definition of intelligent technology; efficient construction leads the industry transformation and upgrading
Unlike countries with highly intelligent construction industries such as Europe and the United States, most Chinese operators tend to rely on empirical technology for construction operations. In the construction industry in the process of intelligent transformation and upgrading, the market demand for high-skilled personnel is increasing. With the launch of a new generation of CAT excavators and intelligent solutions in China in 2017, and the expansion of the product line over the past two years, CAT intelligent technology has gradually become part of operators' daily work.

competition operators challenge excavation project
& other; Judging from the feedback we've received in China, even Chinese operators who have traditionally relied on experience have a high level of acceptance of smart technology. Nowadays, many operators and owners in China are young people who are quick to accept new technologies and applications and are very interested in smart technology products. Anyone who USES a smartphone or tablet in their daily life can easily master CAT smart technology. Throughout the &; John Fallows also has faith in the Chinese operators ahead of next year's global finals. This is a challenge related to the application of science and technology and experience. I believe the Chinese operators' quick adaptability and rich experience make them not inferior in the competition. I am looking forward to this grand carnival gathering the world's top operators! Throughout the &;
