Robust chassis for heavy load

The chassis frame is made from high-strength steel. Its front section is bent outwards to accommodate the cab and engine, and has the same material thickness in the web and the flanges.

The frame section thickness is 8 mm, flange width of 90 mm and 300 mm high. Frame section is reinforced with a 5 mm thick reinforcement profile all along the full length of chassis. Frame liner is also made of high-strength steel which provides extra rigidity to the chassis.

Front two axles are fitted with three-leaf parabolic spring suspension with extra stiffness. The springs feature rubber spacers in the ends, between the spring leaves,which help to reduce vibration and bumps.

Third front axle has electronically programmable air suspension, which ensures right load distribution across thevehicleundergivengrossvehicleweight.Additionalprotective cover on air suspension bellows makes it more reliable for use in the mining conditions.

Rear suspension is of bogie design with 11-leaf springs. It is also equipped with rubber-journalled V-stays and reaction rods. The rear suspension is reinforced to meet tough operating demand of heavy duty mining applications. Rubber springs between the spring leaves and axles contribute to good comfort under all axle loads.

Volvo patented Z-cam brake system offers good safety with high efficiency combined with excellent brake feel and control. The Z-cam wheel brake is characterized by high braking effect and precise brake application and offers increased braking safety on heavier vehicles.

Parking brake on Second Front axle and both the Drive axles fulfills the requirements of added parking brake power for heavy load operations.

12-24 Cross-ply mining tyres ensure better footprint of the vehicle in rough mining roads, while carrying heavy load. It also helps in improving the ground clearance of the vehicle, to ensure unhindered operation in off-road applications.

Higher capacity for higher productivity

productivity

Volvo FM480 10x4 tipper comes with uniquely developed rock body suitable for rough and tough application of mining. It comes with specially designed 24 cum body to be employed in the highly demanding environment and applications. The higher capacity body enables the customers to get the best in class productivity without much brunt on the fuel efficiency. Higher capacity helps the customer reducing the fleet size for the same gamut of work and thus helps increasing the overall profitability for the customer.

Less kerb weight which can carry more payload More than the necessary expenditure of energy contributes toexcessiveconsumptionoffuel.Lesskerbweightforgivenpayload consume less energy for transportation which directly translates to less fuel. More productivity is achieved with less kerb weight of the vehicle and more payload. The power to weight ratio improves with less kerb weight.

Electronically controlled operations The engine control module takes in data from several sensors on the engine and the vehicle. The control unit compares currentreadingswithstoredparametersAndadjustfuelquantity and injection timing accordingly, throughout the engine’s operation. The vehicle control unit collects data from various cab sensors for vehicle speed, accelerator position, service brake, parking brake, cruise control, retarder and power takeoff,and then transmit it to various other control unitsinthesystem.AllElectronicControlUnitsareintegratedwith each other for accuracy in controls. This keeps the fuel consumption low.

Integrated split gear gives low fuel consumption The split gear, which is a compact and sturdily supported unit, is fitted on the input shaft in the forward part of the basic unit. The split gear is operated by compressed air, and the split cylinder is integrated into the clutch casing. The high and low positions of the split gear are preselected with a button

on the gear lever knob. Shifting takes place as soon as the clutch pedal is depressed.

In the low-split position, a downshift takes place which halves the shifting step between two basic gears. Thanks to the low-split function, the correct gear can be selected in relation to the engine’s economy speed, which results in lower fuel consumption.

Crankcase ventilation TheD13A480engineoffersfullysealedcrankcaseventilationasan option - the system is called closed crankcase ventilation.

The crankcase gases in the valve cover are returned via a centrifuge-equipped oil separator to the turbo-charger. The oil mist is separated in the maintenance-free centrifuge system, requiring no filter replacements. This system provides an extremely clean, environmentally friendly engine by re-using the crankcase gases.
