(stock code: 600031.SH) dispatched 50 units of the SKT145E 90-ton pure electric wide-body mining trucks to a mining area in Inner Mongolia on June 2, 2026. This large-scale delivery marks the first batch deployment of this model in the Inner Mongolia mining region, signifying Sany Heavy Industry's further expansion in electrification, automation, and intelligent mining solutions.
Founded in 1994 and headquartered in Changsha City, Hunan Province, Sany Heavy Industry is one of the world's leading construction machinery manufacturers, with products covering concrete machinery, excavating machinery, hoisting machinery, road machinery, and mining vehicles. The SKT145E is a pure electric wide-body mining truck specifically designed by Sany Heavy Industry for heavy-duty mining operations, with a rated load capacity of 90 tons and a level-heaped volume of 50 cubic meters. This model is equipped with a battery pack from Contemporary Amperex Technology Co., Limited (CATL) with a capacity of 801 kWh, a cycle life exceeding 4,500 cycles, and a charging time of less than one hour; the power system delivers 620/900 kW, with a maximum gradeability of 35%; it features a triple braking system with a continuous braking torque of 3,500 N·m. According to Sany Heavy Industry, the availability rate of this model in fully autonomous driving mode exceeds 90%, and key components enjoy a five-year warranty.
This model is an upgraded version of the previously widely deployed 72-ton SKT105E. The SKT105E is currently in operation both within and outside China, with localized production at Sany's factory in Pune, India, and applications at LKAB's Svappavaara mine in Sweden, Barrick Gold's Kibali gold mine in the Democratic Republic of the Congo, and quarries in Poland, among others. Recently, Sany Heavy Industry also launched the SKT145Ei, a driverless, cab-free version of the SKT145E, which supports on-site and remote takeover, fully autonomous driving modes, and integrates advanced technologies such as perception, edge-cloud collaboration, and intelligent dispatching, capable of handling harsh conditions including extreme cold, high temperatures, heavy loads, and complex terrain.
The shipment of 50 SKT145E electric mining trucks represents a significant step by Sany Heavy Industry to accelerate the green and intelligent upgrade of mining operations, helping to drive the transformation of Inner Mongolia's mining areas towards new energy transportation and unmanned operations.
