From A Bucket To A Track

Company Volvo Construction Equipment has started release of a new V-series of compact loaders with onboard system of turn. The new class includes five models: Volvo MC60B, Volvo MC70B, Volvo MC80B, Volvo MC90B and Volvo MC110B. These machines are equipped by engines capacity from 36,9 to 64 kw and lift from 612 to 1020 kg. New machines offer operators a choice standard mechanical (manual or foot) control facilities, and also remarkable on the comfort and efficiency hydraulic auxiliary means of a hand control. Both control systems have been developed with the assistance of operators of loaders during carrying out of the repeated comparative field estimations achievement of the highest level of comfort of the operator was which purpose, execution and productivity.
The new design of a seat provides the ergonomic decision of an armrest. Ease from which control levers submit to movements of hands of the operator, promotes increase of efficiency of its activity and weariness reduction. A new design of handles joysticks both mechanical, and auxiliary control systems include standard auxiliary hydraulic function. The hydraulic experimental control system provides comfort and convenience. Steam rooms joysticks allow the operator to make active the right hand all load-lifting functions of a loader, and left – to operate all functions of its engine. To increase of accuracy of performance of all industrial operations promote both auxiliary hydraulics, and a gas pedal.
Cabin execution can be both opened (canopy), and closed. Both executions provide presence as ROPS (roll-over protection safety, that is systems of tracing of lists of a vehicle), and FOPS (falling objects protection safety, that is systems of maintenance of safe falling). In this case ROPS it is characterised by keeping force of 5400 kg that allows operators to use the heaviest hinged equipment confidently. The big apertures (or wind windows) provide to the operator the maximum all-round visibility, including the best review of the hinged equipment at loading of dump-body trucks. Isolation fastenings promote vibration and noise reduction, that also does stay of the operator in a cabin of a working loader by more comfortable. A variety of variants of installation of a seat and its design thus is available. Including the so-called suspended variant, and best of industrial versions of a soft back of an armchair are possible also. The closed variant of a cabin provides presence of the big forward door with the maximum area of the glazed aperture that provides optimum visibility. The door design includes standard equipment of a windscreen of a vehicle. Lateral windows are easily taken out for clearing. The seat belt with three points of an attachment reliably keeps the operator on its workplace. The closed cabin is equipped with a heater or a heater/conditioner. Now Volvo Construction Equipment is the unique manufacturer of similar technics offering an air conditioning of a cabin of each of models of a compact loader with onboard system of turn.
The control panel the new equipment is simple, all instructions are easily read. Audiopreventions of occurrence of this or that operational problem are thus provided both visual, and. In addition, new loaders Volvo of a V-series are equipped by additional system of autoclosing of a cabin and the anticreeping auxiliary keyboard that provides additional level of protection of the machine. More effective and qualitative work of a loader is promoted also by that all new line is equipped by 4-cylinder engines of new generation Volvo Tier 2. Precisely picked up for the sizes of each of machines 16-klapannyj engine Volvo with liquid cooling allows to develop twisting moment, sufficient to dig in the constrained conditions. Developed capacity has enough for performance of the big variety of operations which demands both landscape building, and a pulling down of structures, both destruction of designs, and moving of cargoes, and the building site organisation. It is necessary to tell, that the hinged equipment used on compact loaders with onboard system of turn Volvo of series B, is universal enough and it can be applied to equipment practically any machine of a similar class. Various kinds of the replaceable hinged equipment include the planning knifes, the equipment for drilling of chinks and digging of ditches, pneumohammers, ladles (including clamshells), harrows, brushes and, certainly, plugs for moving of pallets with cargoes.
