Dig Assist Start and Load Assist are now standard on excavators and wheel loaders.
Volvo says the Dig Assist Start feature is available on Volvo’s EC220E to the EC480E excavators increasing the accuracy of the machines and enables operators to create more complex site profiles.
The Load Assist feather provides Volvo’s L150H to L260H wheel loaders with real-time data. The program also helps wheel loader customers save time and money with on-board weight, ensuring machines shift the optimal load. This allows operators to eliminate overloading, under-loading, reweighing, and waiting times.
Volvo is also adding a new Operator Coaching functionality to its Load Assist program as a standard feature on L150H to L260H wheel loaders. This provides real-time guidance to operators on issues including idling, braking, and throttling. It also identifies areas for improvement or necessary changes in their technique.
