沃尔沃建筑设备公司的全自动电动轮式装载机原型机LX03是第一款应用自主学习概念的轮式装载机,具有决策、执行任务和人机互动等功能。虽然尚未商用,但研发该产品的工程师们希望LX03的概念能够应用于未来。
LX03受到沃尔沃建筑设备公司和乐高技术工程师和设计师的设计概念的启发,这一产品的开发体现出了沃尔沃建筑设备探索机器智能的下一阶段及其致力于建筑行业脱碳的决心。
5吨的LX03轮式装载机采用模块化概念开发,只需对制造过程进行一两次更改,就可以使机器变得更大或更小。它与L25 E电动装载机采用相同的传动系统,具有零排放、低噪音的特点,根据应用条件,运行时间可长达 8 小时。
LX03可适用于不同场景,具有实时决策和与人工协作的能力。客户可以对其进行编程以完成繁重、重复或危险的作业任务。

‘Self-learning’ wheeled loader from Volvo CE
By Andy Brown
The fully autonomous, battery-electric prototype wheeled loader, LX03 by Volvo Construction Equipment (Volvo CE), is said to be the first real-world example of a self-learning concept wheeled loader with the intelligence to make decisions, perform tasks, and interact with humans.
While not commercially available, engineers expect that insights from the LX03 will feed into future appliCATions.
Inspired by a concept devised by Volvo CE and LEGO Technic engineers and designers, the LX03 represents both the next stage in Volvo CE’s exploration into machine intelligence and its determination to decarbonise the construction industry.
Melker Jernberg, President of Volvo CE, said, “We need to transform the construction industry with smart and more sustainable solutions that will have an impact on a global scale. The unveiling of the LX03 prototype today represents just that.”
The five ton wheeled loader has been developed as a modular concept so it can easily be made smaller or bigger
The five ton wheeled loader has been developed as a modular concept, with the capability of being made larger or smaller with just one or two changes to the manufacturing process. It shares its driveline with the L25 Electric, making it a zero emission, low-noise machine with a runtime of up to eight hours depending on its appliCATion.
It is said to have the capacity to adapt to different scenarios, make decisions in real-time and collaborate with humans. It can be programmed by customers to complete heavy, repetitive or dangerous tasks, reducing the need for a human on site.
Lars Stenqvist, chief technology officer of Volvo Group, said, “As transport and infrastructure leaders we have a vital role to play in taking action on climate change and stepping up the pace of innovation needed to deliver on emissions targets.”
