In private cars, it has become more and more common lately – the clever function that stops the car engine as the car stops at, for example, a stop light. Yes, we are of course talking about the Start/Stop function. But the novelty is that Volvo Penta now introduces Start/Stop functionality for industrial engines – and helps operators reduce fuel with up to an impressive 5% – or more.

With the introduction of a number of new engine variants, Volvo Penta can now offer the mining industry a complete range of engines approved for underground mining applications. The selection of nine Tier 2 engines and nine Tier 4i engines – which provide outstanding ventilation rates – enable manufacturers and users of mining equipment to make the perfect Volvo Penta engine choice.

Today, operators of industrial machines and equipment strive to increase engine uptime. Every stop, even planned ones, means extra costs and a loss of income. However, with a quick oil analysis, performed regularly, operators can now extend the periods between the service occasions. This service from Volvo Penta takes the operators one step closer to the dream of their life – the one of the perpetual motion machine.

Sandvik Mining has selected Volvo Penta engines for its underground vehicles for the global mining industry. Engines meet Tier 4i/Stage IIIB emission standards and reduce fuel and ventilation costs.
