Extra durable actuator developed for engine hoods on heavy machinery

“The engine hood’s actuators are often a weak point on wheel loaders, for example. Working in collaboration with our supplier, we have therefore developed an extra durable actuator that will be both more sustainable and cost-effective in the long run for machine owners,” says Håkan Ekstrand, CEO of Olsson Parts.

Olsson Parts’ actuator has been specially developed to meet the construction industry’s high demands for durability and wear resistance, compared with previous solutions, and is designed to cope with the tough environments in which heavy machinery often works.

– The machines and their components are subjected to heavy wear and tear on a daily basis. We offer a sustainable solution at a competitive price, which reduces both downtime and maintenance costs, says Håkan Ekstrand, continuing:

– The actuator is a quality product that is in demand, as well as being a valuable addition to both our range and our customers’ machines.

Olsson Parts’ actuator fits several Volvo wheel loader models, providing a solution that reduces both downtime and maintenance costs.

With an actuator, the operator can easily open and close heavy engine hoods at the press of a button, reducing the risk of injuries and providing easier access during inspections and maintenance. In addition to delivering convenience, it also improves safety by guaranteeing that the engine hood is closed and locked correctly, preventing accidents during operation.
