Was there ever a machine more adaptable, scalable, or shape-shifting than the excavator? Here we look at the versatility behind a selection of Volvo Construction Equipment’s mighty machines.
To provide the most versatile machine possible on demolition job sites, EC700CHR reaches a lofty 32m but it can also be fitted with both high-reach equipment and a standard boom-and-arm. The ability to switch from one type of boom-arm configuration to another with ease offers a higher return on investment. And a hydraulic modular joint enables a fast and safe change from demolition to standard attachment, boosting machine utilization when not required for high-reach projects. Watch this space – an even bigger and better demolition excavator is coming soon from Volvo CE.
Operators can work in comfort in the spacious cab, which can be raised up to five meters above the ground for an eye-level view. To enhance safety, the Volvo EW240E material handler is equipped with a limited arm that avoids collision between the cab and the grapple.
Powered by the award-winning Volvo Co-Pilot in-cab console and incorporating sensors and the latest location technology, Dig Assist delivers incredible excavation accuracy in a fraction of the time normally taken using conventional methods. Simple and intuitive, the operator can set up projects in just a few touches by selecting the required job parameters. The operator can then monitor progress of the job as it gets underway and on-screen alerts indicate when pre-set parameters are met.
