The introduction of the EW230C wheeled excavator, Volvo’s largest to date, offers superior stability in heavier lift operations.

The EW230C from Volvo Construction Equipment is built around a new, more robust platform, which is designed to ensure the stability needed to manage bigger loads, for heavy lifting applications, such as laying big pipe for drainage projects, or hard digging.

Following the recent launch of the EW210C, a benefit of this platform for a machine in this 20t weight class, is that its design ensures that the rear axle weight, when fitted with the standard counterweight, is below 12t – making it approved for road travel between sites.

Two new mid-sized wheel loaders are the latest additions to Volvo Construction Equipment’s F-Series line up. The Volvo L45F and L50F delivers peak performance for increased productivity – and profitability.

The latest additions to Volvo Construction Equipment (Volvo CE)’s ever expanding F-Series range of wheel loaders is the L45F and L50F machines. Fitting into the mid sized class of machines, both wheel loaders are made for performance, with features that include the patented Torque Parallel (TP) loader linkage, separate working hydraulic pumps for maximum power, 100% axle differential locks, the famed Volvo Care Cab and long service intervals. The initial roll out will start in December 2008 concentrating on European markets and the plan is to expand internationally throughout 2009.
