2490 XCMG’s enormous 400tonne capacity mining truck is another example of the company’s product diversification strategy. Its sophisticated diesel-AC electric drive allows a top travel speed of 50km/h, with advanced retardation and braking systems to maximise safety. The box section chassis is said to be strong and durable to suit tough operating cycles while the ergonomic cab provides high levels of operator comfort. Features include an automatic weighing system, a centralised fire extinguishing package, quick oil filling and automatic lubrication.
XCMG’s TZ3 tunnelling jumbo represents another sign of the firm’s diversifying product line. This three boom jumbo drill is intended for duties in large tunnelling excavation projects. It features a ROPS-protected canopy and is a notable development for the firm as it is a sign of the company’s strategy to become a full line supplier, including underground excavation machinery. Its development highlights the firm’s widening machine portfolio, which has expanded well beyond its previous line-up.
XCMG has unveiled a novel ADT design at bauma China, the DAE60. This machine features all-wheel-drive and uses a single axle at the rear, with gear drive casings that can rotate about the ends of this axles and dual wheels for each casing. The design is said to allow good all terrain capability as the wheels can cope with very uneven ground, without losing traction. The machine has a cooling pack to the rear of the cab, with a wide but low, sloping engine cover at the front to ensure forward visibility.
