[Asia Economy Reporter Jeong Hyunjin] Volvo Group Korea, a specialist in excavators, announced on the 13th the launch of the 2022 model 5-ton class compact radius excavator ECR58F.

The ECR58F is equipped with the eco-friendly Volvo D2.6 engine that meets the newly applied domestic exhaust gas environmental standard, EU Stage 5. It features an HD-grade rear camera monitor providing a wide, blind-spot-free work view, and a 5-inch color I-ECU display operable via a jog shuttle switch. Additionally, it comes standard with a premium suspension seat integrated into the left and right consoles, offering various functions.

Volvo Group Korea explained that this product applies an advanced high-performance hydraulic system that maintains optimal work balance in conjunction with the Volvo engine depending on the task, delivering powerful digging force and high lifting performance with low fuel consumption. In particular, the upper frame with a low center of gravity design and an additionally reinforced counterweight enable compact radius operation.

The ECR58F is equipped with a new quick-fit automatic dual safety device allowing bucket attachment and detachment without a manual safety pin, and the offset work equipment has enhanced durability. Furthermore, the indoor I-ECU monitor allows real-time checking of key equipment status, and various major functional parts and oil filters are efficiently arranged for easy access. The newly applied Volvo patented hydraulic oil misfiltration system effectively filters during tank oil filling or oil return, extending oil life.

To commemorate the domestic launch of the ECR58F, Volvo Group Korea is conducting an online customer event at the Volvo Anseong Center, where customers can test drive by making advance reservations, and all visiting and contracting customers will receive commemorative gifts.

Im Jaetack, Vice President of Domestic Sales and Service at Volvo Construction Equipment, said, "The ECR58F, the first general-purpose excavator model of the newly launched F series in Korea, offers differentiated design and performance from existing compact radius products, and we are confident it will provide satisfaction beyond expectations." He added, "Along with this new product launch, we will continuously supply various accessories and do our best to expand work utilization on-site for the benefit of our customers."
