Several new Volvo Construction Equipment excavator models will be arriving in Australia
CJD Equipment, the Australian dealer of Volvo Construction Equipment (Volvo CE) has announced that several new Volvo CE excavators will soon be available in Australia.
The EC230, EC260, EC300 and EC360 Tier 3 and Stage 5 excavators integrate engine-pump optimisation technology, delivering up to 15 per cent greater fuel-efficiency compared to previous models.
A brand-new cab design has also been implemented to increase operator support.
“These new generation excavators can deliver premium quality and heavy-duty performance,” Volvo CE region international excavator product manager Olle Watz says.
“They mark another way Volvo CE is continuing to understand and adapt to the unique needs of customers and end-users by providing superior, highly productive options.”
From agriculture and roadwork to general construction, trenching and quarrying, the six Volvo CE excavator models are designed to provide reliability and performance in a variety of applications.
The new ROPS-certified cab offers improved ergonomics, intuitive controls and advanced human-machine interface (HMI) systems, providing operators with a comfortable, productive working environment, with enhanced visibility, reduced noise levels and efficient HVAC systems, Volvo CE says.
“With the cab, it’s a totally new design with a more intuitive layout,” Watz says.
“Whilst we’ve prioritised productivity and power, it’s not to the expense of operator comfort.”
All models are compatible with Volvo Dig Assist, an intelligent machine control system that improves excavation precision and productivity. Operators can utilise tools such as real-time weighing, automated digging and smart monitoring, which enhance efficiency, with Volvo Smart View producing 360° machine visibility. Additional features such as preset depth, height, and swing limits further enhance on-site safety.
All models in the series are powered by Volvo engines and advanced hydraulic systems, ensuring precise, smooth movements and reduced cycle times. Lower engine revolutions per minute reduce fuel consumption and carbon emissions.
“The new generation of Volvo excavators are built to meet the evolving demands of the industrial landscape,” Watz says.
“Volvo CE is once again helping customers have the right tools for their specific needs.”
