Introducing Dig Assist, powered by the in-cab Volvo Co-Pilot tablet. Whether you are levelling sites, digging trenches, grading slopes or creating site profiles, digging operations have never been faster, easier and safer. Dig Assist is a suite of tools designed to deliver excavation accuracy in a fraction of the time compared to conventional methods, eliminating the need to manually mark out a site and check depths and grades.
Intended for site levelling and profiling slopes, 2D uses real time data to clearly show operators when target depth or slope levels have been achieved. With just a few touches of the screen, a target depth is set and excavation can begin within minutes. Combine depth and slopes as required and use the machine to set your height reference. A laser catcher is included, located on the excavator arm, making the machine ready to operate existing and commonly used tools.
In-Field Design makes easy work of time-consuming jobs, using GNSS and RTK navigation technology to offer centimeter-level accuracy across a wide range of tasks, such as trenching, foundations and driveway/pool preparation. Go from a paper drawing to a digital excavation model in minutes, using the simple on-screen instructions to design your digital shape before using the machine to replicate it in real-life. The Volvo Co-Pilot can also save projects in case the excavator needs to leave the jobsite and return to finish the work later.
Your workday just got easier with Volvo Active Control – designed to enhance the comfort and productivity of all operators. Automated boom and bucket movements make the excavation process more efficient and with less effort.
