Volvo Construction Equipment has developed Volvo Co-Pilot, a fully integrated system that acts as the operator’s partner in the cab. It is the world’s first system of its kind to utilize on-board machine information combined with high-precision sensors. The high definition touchscreen provides unrestricted access to functionality that unlocks a Volvo machine’s full performance potential.

Delivering a range of software for productivity, fuel efficiency, uptime and safety, the industry-leading solution gives the operator and owner the information they need to ensure highly productive – and profitable – operation.

Keep production up and running

The interactive display works simultaneously with the Volvo Assist family, which so far, is comprised of Load Assist for wheel loaders, Dig Assist for excavators, Compact Assist for asphalt compactors and Pave Assist for pavers. These software solutions are tailor-made for each machine type to offer unmatched productivity, significantly increased quality and improved safety.

Whether loading material, digging trenches, compacting or paving, Volvo Co-Pilot offers outstanding controllability, ensuring maximum productivity and uptime across a variety of applications and machines. Volvo Co-Pilot is designed to work seamlessly with each application, providing real-time operation data for a responsive, harmonious and efficient operating experience.

Safe and easy operation

Not only does Volvo Co-Pilot make light of heavy-duty jobs, it also minimizes interruptions in the workflow for greater onsite safety. The ergonomically-positioned display reduces operator interaction with fewer on-screen menus, helping to keep their focus on the task at hand. When pre-set operating limits are met, Volvo Co-Pilot alerts the operator through audio and visual signals. This intelligent technology reduces the need for additional onsite personnel such as grade checkers around the machine, thereby improving safety and increasing operator autonomy.

With Volvo Co-Pilot, the operator can quickly and independently manage all operations with ease. The Volvo Co-Pilot display is intuitive enough to operate with minimal training and on-screen tips are always available at the touch of a button, optimizing ease of operation and uptime. Operators can also customize functions and targets in seconds and easily monitor the progress of their work with greater independence and confidence.

Production results and on-board produced reports are sent to the machines’ own Cloud storage where customers can access their data from any internet-connected device. This greatly reduces administration for production data by office personnel and allows operators to remain focused on the machine operation.

Room to grow

The Volvo Co-Pilot system is designed for quick functionality growth, offering Volvo customers and dealers an exceptionally short time to market for new software applications. Thanks to the over-the-air software update capability, Volvo Construction Equipment will offer new functionality over time to all Volvo Co-Pilot customers through their dealers. The dealer can remotely activate new functionality on the machine on customer demand. Volvo’s extensive dealer network is the customer’s partner to meet business needs including machines, attachments, parts, warranty and services.
