This Caterpillar 627K is a motor scraper — sometimes referred to as a self-loading scraper or elevating scraper — a heavy earthmoving machine designed to cut, carry, and deposit large volumes of material across a site in a single continuous operation. Caterpillar is one of the world's most recognised manufacturers of construction and mining equipment, with a long history of producing machines for earthmoving, road building, and heavy civil infrastructure work.
This 2023 machine is offered used from Wyoming, USA, and is priced at $1,300,000. It is configured in a push-pull arrangement, meaning it is set up to work in tandem with a second scraper unit, each machine providing push or pull assistance to the other during the loading pass — a common productivity strategy on high-volume earthmoving projects.
Power comes from a Cat C13/C9.3 engine combination meeting US EPA Tier 4 Final emissions standards, reflecting current regulatory compliance for construction equipment operating in the United States. A cold start attachment is fitted, supporting reliable operation in low-temperature conditions such as those commonly encountered in Wyoming and similar climates.
The machine is equipped with Cat Grade Control with blade assist (LD Assist), an integrated machine control system that helps the operator maintain target grade and optimise cut depth, improving accuracy and reducing overcut. Sequence Assist (CPM) is also included, which automates portions of the scraper cycle to improve consistency and reduce operator fatigue on repetitive passes.
Tyres are sized 33.25R29 Bridgestone VLT, rated E2A, a specification appropriate for the demands of motor scraper work on earthmoving sites. Lighting provision includes standard work lights and a beacon light mounted on the cab roof. Access to the machine is via a non-powered access group. The listing also notes storage protection, a domestic truck transport combination (TR/SCR combined), an online Owner's Manual, and films and standard certification to US (ANSI) standards. An AR camera system (AR-WAVS) is noted as fitted equipment.
