Volvo XC Series Power Step Suppliers

-- Steady & Reliable Manufacturer --

Technical Overview

Power steps for the Volvo XC series (XC60, XC90, XC40) are designed with a critical focus on Safety and Environmental Compliance, aligning with Volvo's core values. The control system incorporates Pressure-Sensitive Anti-Pinch Technology that exceeds standard requirements, ensuring immediate cessation of movement upon detecting any unusual resistance.

Electronic integration is achieved through a bespoke module that respects the Sensus/Sensus Connect vehicle protocol, sourcing activation signals reliably while maintaining low quiescent current draw. The mechanical structure features a blend of lightweight aluminum platforms and specialized mounting brackets that account for Volvo's unique crash structure design.

Introduction

Common Questions

Q: Are the steps compatible with the hybrid models' specific battery placement?
A: Yes. The mounting hardware and bracket routing are custom-designed to avoid all factory wiring harnesses, high-voltage lines, and battery enclosures unique to the XC60 and XC90 Hybrid variants.

Q: Does the anti-pinch sensor distinguish between a foot and a small object?
A: The system's advanced logic detects abnormal motor current spikes and rapid position changes, ensuring immediate safety stop, effectively protecting against any detected blockage, large or small.

Q: What is the benefit of the ultra-low standby current draw?
A: A low standby current ensures that the accessory does not contribute significantly to the overall electrical load, maintaining the vehicle's battery longevity and stability, particularly important for vehicles with complex electrical systems like Volvo's.

Core Features

Enhanced Safety Logic: The anti-pinch mechanism utilizes both current monitoring and positional feedback for fast, redundant obstruction detection.
Low Energy Profile: Features an ultra-low quiescent current draw when stowed, preserving the vehicle's battery health, essential for hybrid vehicle stability.
Sleek, Integrated Design: The aesthetic is refined to match Volvo's minimalist design language, sitting discreetly when retracted.
Robust All-Season Performance: Materials and electronics are specified and tested for reliable function in extreme temperature variations and high moisture environments.

Manufacturing & Customization

Our manufacturing includes a rigorous Salt Spray Chamber Testing protocol that simulates Scandinavian weather exposure to validate the corrosion resistance of the finished components. The ECUs are programmed with specialized Volvo protocol firmware.

Customization Opportunities: Targeting safety and region-specific needs:

Nordic Specification Sealing: Applying specialized low-temperature gaskets and lubricants for markets with prolonged sub-zero climates.
Safety Certification Branding: Providing client-specific branding and required safety markings (e.g., CE mark, E-mark compliance documentation).
Installation Training Materials: Developing detailed, graphically-rich installation manuals and videos for distribution partners, tailored for each XC model.

Material Selection

The construction uses a Hybrid Linkage, often pairing Aluminum (for lightness) with High-Grade Steel (for pivot strength) to optimize performance for the vehicle size.

The step surface features a Textured Polymer or Rubberized Insert set within an aluminum frame, chosen for its superior grip and reduced susceptibility to freezing in cold, wet conditions.

Crucial electrical connectors are Volvo-Specific or Certified Automotive Connectors to ensure a reliable and vibration-resistant electrical interface.
