Caterpillar Equipment

587T Pipelayer

Engineered for reliable production in the toughest conditions. The 587T's high horsepower and rugged components are designed for tough and varied working conditions. This machine offers the reliability and durability expected from Cat Pipelayers.


Pipelayer


Fully hydraulic hook and boom winches provide excellent controllability for precise pipe placement. Counterweight and frame design provides excellent stability.

Winches


  • Boom and hook drawworks are driven by independent hydraulic winches.
  • Oil-disc brakes provide smooth operation, positive retention of boom and hook positions.
  • Modular design allows fast replacement, easy field service and testing.
  • High parts interchangeability between hook and boom winch assemblies.
  • Infinitely variable speed controls for both boom and hook allow precise control.

Counterweight


  • Counterweight is extended hydraulically for improved load balance and clearance.
  • Counterweight segments are contoured to provide a low center of gravity and enhanced forward and right side viewing area. Segments are splined to the counterweight assembly for ease of assembly and disassembly.

Drawbar


˘ Able to tow wide range of attachments.

Boom


  • 8.5 m (28 ft) Boom is standard equipment with large box section.
  • Replaceable, boom-mount bearings.
  • High tensile strength steel construction.
  • Allows for smaller sections for improved visibility.
  • Lighter weight for increased payload.
  • Durable for long life.

Blocks and Hook


Heavy-duty lifting components include the following:

  • Hook and boom blocks with sealed roller bearings.
  • Forged hook with latch and serviceable handle.
  • Ductile iron sheaves.
  • High performance cable for improved life, crush resistance, flexibility and strength.

Structure


Mainframe is heavy, strong and durable. Full box sections, steel castings and continuous rolled rails provide durable support to the undercarriage, elevated final drives and other integral frame components.

Mainframe Strength


The 587T mainframe is built to absorb high impact shock loads and twisting forces.

Frame Rails


Full box section, designed to keep components rigidly aligned.

Heavy Steel Castings


Adds strength to the main case.

Top and Bottom Rails


Continuous rolled sections, with no machining or welding, to provide superior mainframe durability.

Main Case


Elevates the final drives well above the ground level work area to protect them from impact loads, abrasion and contaminants.

Robotic Welding


Caterpillar uses robotic welding techniques in the assembly of the case and frames. This insures quality and reliability throughout the structure. Robotic welding provides deep penetration and consistency for long life, and reduces the chance for errors that may be made during manual welding.

Front Bumper


A front bumper is mounted to the frame rails and provides both protection and a towing device. Pipelayer frame mounts are also an integral part of the frame.

Optional Roll Over Protective Structure


Provides increased operator protection. ˘ Available with or without cab.

Operator Station


Designed for operator comfort, convenience and productivity. Machine control and vital information is provided at the operator's fingertips. A full day of work is no problem in this efficient work place.

Seat


Ergonomically designed and fully adjustable for maximum comfort. The seat cushion reduces the pressure on the lower back and thighs while allowing unrestricted arm and leg movement.

Clear Full-Circle View


A tapered hood and śnotchedť fuel tank give the operator a clear line of sight to the front, rear and side work areas. The new streamlined design of the Caterpillar 587T Pipelayer offers several operator visibility improvements for more precise maneuvering and placement of pipe.

Finger Tip Control (FTC)
