XCMG MACHINERY UNVEILS A NEW ERA FOR MINING WITH ZERO- CARBON, INTELLIGENT SOLUTIONS

XCMG IS EMERGING AS A CATALYTIC FORCE, DRIVING A PROFOUND SHIFT TOWARD SUSTAINABLE AND INTELLIGENT OPERATION
As the global mining industry grapples with the dual imperatives of carbon neutrality and digital transformation, XCMG is emerging as a catalytic force, driving a profound shift toward sustainable and intelligent operations. Moving far beyond traditional models defined by fossil fuels and manual labor, the company is delivering integrated solutions that combine new-energy equipment, intelligent management systems, and full lifecycle services, ushering in a new paradigm where economic growth and environmental responsibility go hand in hand.
XCMG is answering that call with a comprehensive vision for change, built around two core pillars: green energy transition and intelligent operation.
Four Pioneering Equipment Combinations Leading the Green Revolution
• XE1350E + ZNK95: The Autonomous Electric Duo
For decades, mining has been characterized by high energy consumption, high pollution, and high risk. Accounting for over 7 % of global industrial carbon emissions, the sector also faces persistent challenges around safety, resource efficiency, and operational costs. But with countries and corporations worldwide committing to carbon reduction goals, mining’ s evolution is no longer optional— it is essential to its future.
This eco-friendly pairing features the XE1350E, an all-electric hydraulic excavator powered by a 3,000 kWh mobile power unit, and the ZNK95, a fully autonomous pure-electric mining truck with a 53m ³ load capacity. Designed for open-pit mining, the ZNK95 incorporates intelligent obstacle avoidance, adaptive cruise control, and optimized route planning. Together, they form a zero-emission, high-efficiency digging-and-hauling system that eliminates diesel dependency and reduces operational carbon footprint.
