2. Solutions
2.1 Scene: High-intensity hard rock excavation in mines
Pain point: Insufficient power, weak digging force, high failure rate, large downtime loss
Function: Isuzu high-torque engine + Linde high-precision hydraulics + reinforced arm
Result: Easier hard rock crushing & excavation, stable continuous operation, 40% less downtime
2.2 Scene: Large-scale infrastructure earthwork transportation
Pain point: Slow action, high fuel consumption, low efficiency, tight schedule pressure
Function: Load-sensing flow adaptation + large-flow hydraulic pump + high-efficiency transmission
Result: 18% faster loading speed, lower energy consumption, significantly increased daily earthwork volume
2.3 Scene: Heavy-duty loading & unloading in ports /stockyards
Pain point: Unstable swing, unreliable braking, material scattering, high safety risk
Function: Linde reinforced swing motor + smooth braking + 37-ton stable chassis
Result: Smooth start-stop without shaking, precise positioning, safe and efficient operation, lower loss
3. Applicable Industries
Mining industry: Used for heavy-duty operations such as hard rock excavation, ore loading, mine stripping, tailings treatment
Large-scale infrastructure industry: Used for earthwork projects of highways, railways, bridges, water conservancy, airports
Urban construction industry: Used for old city reconstruction, site leveling, foundation pit excavation, municipal pipeline network construction
Port logistics industry: Used for port bulk cargo loading & unloading, yard stacking, container auxiliary handling
4. Industry Cases
A large iron ore project in Africa: Batch purchased 38-ton excavators for hard rock stripping and ore loading. No major failures in 12 months of continuous operation, attendance rate over 95%, construction efficiency 20% higher than original equipment.
General infrastructure project in Southeast Asia: Used for highway subgrade excavation and earthwork transportation. With low fuel consumption and high stability, it helped customers shorten construction period by 15% and reduce comprehensive operating cost by 25%.
