Volvo EC750D excavator to set new standards in the Australian mining industry

The most striking advantage of the Volvo EC750D is the increased levels of productivity it brings.

“The EC750D brings unprecedented levels of productivity to the job sites. With this 75 ton class excavator, miners are able to load their trucks quicker thereby enhancing production and optimizing fleet utilization,” says AM Muralidharan, Vice President of Sales Support and Dealer Development in Volvo CE Region APAC.

The driving force behind the new heavy-duty excavator is the powerful Volvo D16 Tier 3 engine, which has been significantly updated in recent times. It delivers increased horsepower and fuel efficiency and also has a robust design to ensure a low total cost of ownership.

Prime performance

The EC750D’s constant high system pressure delivers greater digging force and reduces cycle times. The high system pressure also delivers an impressive tractive force, particularly useful when the excavator is climbing gradients or travelling over uneven ground. And a wider track gauge and heavier counterweight improve stability.

Built with durable Volvo components, the EC750D has been designed to last. Robust parts and easy service access increase uptime and keep maintenance to a minimum. Volvo’s tried and tested components have been proven in even the toughest applications.

The reinforced heavy-duty boom and arm are built from high strength tensile steel while steel strips are welded under the arm to further increase protection. The reinforced upper and lower frames are built to withstand tough conditions and the strengthened idler frame, track links and bottom rollers are designed for constant impact. Heavy-duty plates provide additional protection to the underside of the machine.

Work in harmony

For increased productivity and profitability, the EC750D can work with a range of Volvo buckets and attachments. These include Volvo’s heavy-duty bucket, which is particularly well-suited to mining and quarrying, and which is built using wear resistant plates.

A comfortable, low noise cab with adjustable seat increases operator efficiency to further improve production. Volvo’s industry-leading cab boasts superior visibility from large expanses of front and side glass with slim cab pillars and the spacious environment provides ample storage and leg room.
