SANY Sends Autonomous Mining Trucks to South America（August 20）
SANY Autonomous Mining Trucks Export to South America for the First Time
On August 17, reporters learned from SANY Group that the first batch of SKT110Ei pure-electric autonomous mining trucks was dispatched from SANY Heavy Equipment's Shenyang park to overseas destinations. This is the first autonomous mining truck project to land in South America, marking the official entry of China's mining autonomous driving technology into the Latin American market.
Constrained by industry pain points such as shortages of specialized mining drivers and continuously rising labor costs, customers urgently need to transition to intelligent operation models. This delivery covers autonomous mining trucks, supporting dispatch systems, and operation and maintenance services. Facing the unique transport operation scenarios of overseas mining areas, the SANY project team deeply analyzed core pain points including mining safety production, cost reduction and efficiency enhancement, and personnel operation risk management, integrating the triple advantages of equipment manufacturing, technology R&D, and on-site overseas operation and maintenance to provide customized solutions for overseas customers.
The SKT110Ei pure-electric autonomous mining trucks dispatched this time feature high reliability, high attendance rates, and low energy consumption, equipped with a fully self-developed autonomous driving system that can effectively reduce mining enterprise operating costs and improve operational efficiency. Reporters learned that as a leading enterprise in the mining autonomous driving sector, SANY International's wholly-owned subsidiary SANY Zhikuang has been focused on building digital, green, and smart mines since its establishment, with 100% independently controllable core technology, building a full-industry-chain technological advantage spanning from drive-by-wire chassis, multi-sensor fusion perception, and AI decision-making algorithms to cloud-based intelligent dispatch platforms.
As of July 2026, SANY Zhikuang has deployed over 300 autonomous mining trucks, with commercial operations covering major domestic open-pit mining areas in Inner Mongolia, Qinghai, and other regions, accumulating over 13 million kilometers of safe operation mileage and transporting over 41 million cubic meters of earth and rock. The technology maturity and operational reliability have been fully validated across various complex working conditions.
