Zoomlion Heavy Industry Science & Technology Co Ltd has announced significant advancements in its ultra-large hydraulic excavator portfolio and intelligent mining equipment systems. The development underscores the company’s strategic commitment to delivering next-generation solutions that enhance efficiency, safety, and sustainability across global mining operations.
As mining projects worldwide continue to scale in size and complexity, Zoomlion is expanding its footprint in the 100-tonne-plus excavator segment through continuous technological innovation and integrated system solutions. The company now offers a comprehensive range spanning 60 to 1,000 tonnes, headlined by the ZE1050G to ZE2000G series, alongside flagship models including the 400-tonne ZE4000G ultra-large excavator, the 35 m³ ZRS35G electric shovel, and the hybrid electric-drive ZTE520 mining dump truck.
Central to Zoomlion’s strategy is the acceleration of the green and intelligent transformation of mining operations. The company is actively advancing electrification, hybrid power systems, and hydrogen energy pathways, supported by megawatt-level ultra-fast charging infrastructure and mobile energy replenishment solutions. These technologies are designed to significantly reduce carbon intensity while improving operational efficiency.
Zoomlion has further developed an integrated intelligent ecosystem encompassing Smart Vehicle, Smart Driving, Smart Mine, and Smart Logistics platforms. This comprehensive system enables remote operation, real-time fault detection, predictive maintenance, and optimised fleet management across entire mining operations.
Notable recent innovations include the ZT115DPEV wide-body battery trolley truck, which features a dual-power system combining overhead lines and battery supply to maximise route flexibility and minimise charging limitations. Additionally, the ZT160HEV intelligent mining truck has proven its capability in extreme conditions, achieving 24/7 autonomous operation in cold-region mines at temperatures as low as -30°C, with over 120 units currently deployed in high-dust, harsh environments.
Wu Yuanfeng, Deputy General Manager of Zoomlion Earthmoving Machinery Co, stated: “Our vision extends beyond equipment manufacturing. We are committed to delivering superior lifecycle value through the seamless integration of intelligent systems, electrification technologies, and comprehensive service capabilities. By prioritising reliability, energy efficiency, and smart operations, we help customers achieve meaningful reductions in total operating costs while enhancing safety and productivity.”
In 2025, Zoomlion Earthmoving Machinery recorded robust growth, with domestic sales increasing against broader market trends and international sales tripling. Through sustained investment in advanced manufacturing, digitalisation, and green technologies, Zoomlion continues to solidify its position as a key driver in the global transition toward intelligent and sustainable mining.
