60 exhibits that demonstrate the transformative impact of artificial intelligence (AI) on heavy machinery and robotics.
Under the theme
“AI-Driven, Smarter Future,” Zoomlion plans to showcase five dedicated exhibition areas centered around AI technology applied to construction machinery, intelligent manufacturing, autonomous operations, and robotics. This initiative reflects Zoomlion's commitment to pioneering advancements in heavy industry through innovative technology.
Exhibition Highlights
At the main exhibition space located at the
Shanghai New International Expo Center, attendees can explore various cutting-edge technologies, including:
- - Cranes: Advanced models that incorporate AI-driven optimization for various construction tasks.
- - Concrete Machinery: Innovative solutions designed for efficiency and performance in building projects.
- - Earthmoving Equipment: Includes autonomous and manually-operated models designed for complex tasks in construction and mining.
- - Robotics: Showcasing the company’s humanoid robot, the Z01, and its Zbrain system that offers embodied intelligence for various industrial applications.
The main exhibit product lines will emphasize not just enhanced capabilities but also safety, efficiency, and sustainability—key trends driving the industry today.
Live Demonstrations
Live demonstrations will play a key role in the exhibition, showcasing how these intelligent machines can autonomously perform complex tasks. For instance, AI agents will demonstrate coordinated excavation and vehicle movements in simulated mining operations. Attendees will observe how excavators, such as the groundbreaking
ZE4000GEL, a 400-ton electric ultra-large excavator, function optimally. Additional demonstrations will feature cabin-less mini-excavators and compact loaders performing autonomous tasks typical of European site conditions.
Focus on Eco-Friendly Solutions
In anticipation of growing market demand for machinery with alternative energy sources, approximately half of the showcased premium models will incorporate innovative power technologies. Highlights include an
electric concrete pump truck with a remarkable
73-meter boom and various models tailored for international markets, including those with right-hand drive suited for Europe.
Zoomlion's hybrid, electric, and plug-in technologies are specifically designed to reduce energy consumption and operational costs—showing the company’s dedication to accommodating diverse customer requirements on a global scale.
