Volvo expands compact track loaders
Volvo Construction Equipment launched the new MCT110C compact track loader in North America.
This unit with a rated operating capacity of 2,250 pounds completes the range of compact track loaders filling the gap between the Volvo MCT85C and MCT125C. As the compact track loader market has developed, this model size class has grown into the second largest and represents 25 percent of the total market.
The MCT110C is the latest addition to the high-performing C-Series line of compact track loaders from Volvo — which comes in a wide range of choices. With the addition of the 2,250 pound rated operating capacity MCT110C, Volvo now offers four tracked models — the radial lift MCT110C and the vertical lift MCT85C, MT125C and MCT135C. The MCT110C shares the same assortment of high-end features with the other compact track loaders and skid steer loaders. Most notably — the powerful Tier 4 Final four-cylinder engine (74 hp / 55 kW), which features an advanced combustion system that cuts emissions while increasing fuel economy. Due to the cooled exhaust gas recirculation (EGR), common rail system and fixed-geometry turbocharger, a diesel particulate filter isn’t required — which is critical for such a compact machine.
Staying on top of the MCT110C’s vital data is simple, with two consoles at the front of the cab that present important information in an easy-to-read manner. The operator can select between three levels of control sensitivity to suit the application at hand, as well as operating preferences. An optional control pattern choice gives further flexibility, allowing the operator to select between Volvo ISO and H patterns.
These Volvo Tier 4 Final machines are fitted with a three-stage air cleaner, with active scavenging for enhanced engine life, reduced maintenance and longer service intervals.
