New Mid-Sized Wheel Loaders from VCE
November 20th, 2008 by moresnow | No Comments | Filed in UncategorizedTwo 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 are the new Volvo L45F and Volvo 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 rollout will begin in December 2008 in the European markets and delivery will expand internationally throughout 2009.
The Torque Parallel linkage gives both the Volvo L45F and Volvo L50F smooth, parallel lift, high rollback torque and excellent lifting power throughout the lift range. A key element to any wheel loader is visibility, and the linkage on both machines provides class-leading pallet visibility, along with a clear view of attachments. A wide rollback angle adds to Volvo’s already good reputation for retaining loose bucket material, while the parallel lift action makes it suited for material handling and pallet handling.
