Zoomlion Accelerates Global Adoption of Large Hydraulic Excavators and Smart Mining Solutions
Zoomlion Drives Global Expansion of Heavy Machinery
Zoomlion Heavy Industry Science & Technology Co., Ltd., commonly referred to as Zoomlion, has unveiled its latest advancements in the realm of exceptionally large hydraulic excavators and cutting-edge smart mining solutions. These developments emphasize the company's commitment to building the next generation of efficient, safe, and sustainable mining operations worldwide.
As global mining projects pivot towards increasing scale, efficiency, and reduced emissions, Zoomlion is enhancing its footprint in the excavator market, especially for machines over 100 tons, fueled by technological innovation and integrated system solutions. The company has developed an extensive product line ranging from 60 to 1,000 tons, featuring models such as the ZE1050G to ZE2000G and heavy-duty equipment like the 400-ton ultra-large excavator ZE4000G, the 35 m³ electric excavator ZRS35G, and the hybrid-electric mining dumper ZTE520.
In addition to machinery development, Zoomlion is spearheading the green and intelligent transformation across the entire mining sector. Emphasizing electrification, hybrid power, and hydrogen energy, the company is implementing ultra-fast loading systems capable of megawatt levels along with mobile energy systems to enhance operational efficacy and reduce CO₂ intensity. Furthermore, Zoomlion has established an integrated technology ecosystem encompassing 'Smart Vehicle, Smart Driving, Smart Mine, and Smart Logistics', facilitating remote operations, disturbance early warning systems, and predictive maintenance for the entire mining fleet.
One of the latest innovations is the ZT115DPEV, a wide-body battery trolley truck featuring a dual power system that combines overhead lines and battery supply. This system helps to mitigate charging restrictions within mining operations while improving route planning efficiency and flexibility. Additionally, the intelligent mining truck ZT160HEV has demonstrated autonomous 24/7 operations in mines located in frigid regions; over 120 units have been deployed in conditions as cold as -30 degrees Celsius, showcasing stable performance even in harsh, dusty environments.
Wu Yuanfeng, Deputy General Manager of Zoomlion Earthmoving Machinery Co., stated, "Our strategy transcends mere machine manufacturing. We aim to provide optimal lifecycle value by integrating intelligent systems, electrification technologies, and comprehensive service capabilities. By focusing on reliability, energy efficiency, and smart operational management, we help our customers reduce overall operational costs while enhancing safety and productivity."
In 2025, Zoomlion Earthmoving Machinery witnessed remarkable growth, with domestic sales increasing contrary to market trends and international sales tripling. By consistently investing in advanced manufacturing, digitalization, and green technologies, Zoomlion is reinforcing its role in shaping the future of intelligent and sustainable global mining.
