en.Wedoany.com Reported - On May 25, 2026, Cummins held the "Mining Centennial China Tour & QSK60 China-Made Mining Engine Delivery" ceremony at its global high-horsepower engine manufacturing base—Chongqing Cummins. At the event, Cummins and XCMG jointly delivered the first China-made QSK60 mining engine to the Yimin customer, marking new progress in Cummins' manufacturing and delivery capabilities in the high-horsepower mining power sector in China, and reflecting its continued investment in the Chinese mining market.
In addition to XCMG, representatives from OEMs such as NHL, SANY Heavy Machinery, LiuGong Group, and China Coal, along with several mining users, also attended the event, demonstrating the industry's focus on the localized manufacturing and collaborative development of Cummins' mining power. Cummins has been deeply engaged in the mining sector for a century, and its history of serving the mining industry in China dates back to 1975, when its first customer served in China was a mining user.
Xiao Yunbo, Dean of XCMG Mining Research Institute, and Gao Xiaofeng, General Manager of Cummins Power Systems China Industrial Market, jointly delivered the first China-made QSK60 mining engine to Yimin.
The delivery of this first China-made QSK60 engine is not just a product handover, but also a concentrated demonstration of Cummins' localized high-horsepower capabilities. Relying on Chinese manufacturing and unified global standards, Cummins has gradually built a capability system covering collaborative R&D, intelligent manufacturing, supply chain management, and service support.
Yuan Jun, General Manager of Cummins Power Systems Business Unit China, stated: "Today's delivery is a concrete manifestation of Cummins' century-long mining power heritage in the Chinese market. Cummins has always adhered to long-term investment, continuously enhancing manufacturing, application engineering, supply chain, and service capabilities around the needs of Chinese customers, and constantly promoting the upgrade of mining power solutions. The QSK60 entering the delivery phase is precisely the result of these capabilities working in synergy."
This progress is not a single-point breakthrough, but a phased achievement of collaboratively building a full-value ecosystem with OEMs, mining users, and industry chain partners. Cummins is working with partners to extend the value of mining power from "engine delivery" to "customer value delivery," providing more reliable and efficient solutions.
Su Zimeng, President of the China Construction Machinery Industry Association, said: "This event reflects the new achievements in the collaborative development of international advanced power technology and China's mining equipment industry. The association will continue to play its role as a bridge and link, strengthen industry services, standard guidance, and exchanges and cooperation, and work with member companies, users, and partners to successfully complete the goals and tasks set out in the construction machinery industry's '15th Five-Year Plan'." In his view, the improvement in localized manufacturing and batch delivery capabilities will further enhance the resilience of the industrial and supply chains.
The QSK60 engine delivered this time was manufactured by Chongqing Cummins. As an important manufacturing base for Cummins' global high-horsepower engines, Chongqing Cummins has continuously advanced its manufacturing capabilities around the QSK60, establishing an independent production line for the 60L cylinder block, upgrading the V-type engine assembly line, building a new 3000KW test bench, and simultaneously introducing MES, AI visual inspection, and a quality big data platform to form an integrated manufacturing system.
Chai Ruimin, General Manager of Chongqing Cummins Engine Co., Ltd., pointed out that mining customers value not only equipment performance but also whether the equipment can operate stably and reduce unplanned downtime. Addressing this need, Cummins has established a service system in China covering on-site mine service, forward-positioned spare parts, rapid recovery, digital monitoring, and globally coordinated support.
On the day of the event, guests also visited Cummins' high-horsepower intelligent manufacturing base and technology R&D center. Looking to the future, Cummins will continue to join hands with OEM partners, mining customers, and all parties in the industry chain, focusing on greater reliability and higher efficiency, to promote the optimization and upgrade of mining power solutions in China.
