en.Wedoany.com Reported - Recently, XCMG (Shenzhen Stock Exchange: 000425), a Chinese construction machinery manufacturer, officially delivered its XE1350 large-scale mining excavator to a European customer. This delivery marks the first entry of XCMG's 100-tonne mining equipment into the high-end European market, signifying a major breakthrough in the global strategy of the Chinese brand.
The XE1350 is a classic model in XCMG's 100-tonne mining excavator lineup, with an operating weight of approximately 121 tonnes, a bucket capacity ranging from 5.2 to 10 cubic meters, and is powered by a Cummins QSK23 engine with a rated power of 567 kW. The model delivers a bucket breakout force of 710 kN and a maximum digging radius exceeding 12 meters. Previously, the XE1350 has been exported to major mining regions worldwide, including Africa, South America, and Southeast Asia. The model delivered to Europe fully meets EU standards in terms of technology, emissions, and safety, and is equipped with desert and air filtration systems to enhance dust resistance, achieving an equipment availability rate of over 93%.
The European market imposes strict standards on the performance, environmental friendliness, and safety of mining machinery. This delivery represents a phased achievement in XCMG's deep cultivation of the European market. In recent years, XCMG has steadily built a localized R&D, production, marketing, and service system, continuously expanding its product portfolio across all categories. Yang Dongsheng, Chairman of XCMG Group and XCMG Machinery, stated, "In Europe, for Europe, XCMG is committed to becoming a key participant and trusted partner in Europe's low-carbon, intelligent, and sustainable development."
XCMG ranks among the top four global manufacturers of open-pit mining equipment. According to the Yellow Table 2026 published by KHL Group's International Construction magazine, XCMG ranked third globally and first in China among construction machinery manufacturers, with equipment sales of $14.207 billion and a global market share of 5.8%. XCMG's mining machinery covers the entire mining process, including drilling, excavating, hauling, dumping, and auxiliary mining, with products ranging from small to ultra-large tonnages, suitable for both coal and non-coal mining applications. The company has formed a complete product spectrum, including 70 to 700-tonne mining excavators, 30 to 60-tonne articulated dump trucks, 60 to 100-tonne three-axle rigid dump trucks, and 70 to 440-tonne two-axle rigid dump trucks.
The first entry of the 100-tonne mining excavator into the European market represents a solid step in XCMG's strategy of transitioning from "product export" to "technical standard export," and from "going global" to "going deep" and "going up," providing global mining customers with a full lifecycle solution from equipment to services.
