All-Electric Autonomous Mining Dump Truck Joins Taiyuan Heavy Industry's Fleet
June 29,2026
At a mine site in Xinjiang, a white figure is nimbly moving through the area, with its warning lights flashing rhythmically. The truck bed accurately positions itself at the loading and unloading points, and the steering, braking, and lifting actions are performed seamlessly, yet there is no one in the cab to control it.
This is the latest 120t battery-electric autonomous mining dump truck launched by Taiyuan Heavy Industries, following the 136t methanol-powered autonomous mining dump truck, marking another significant product in the autonomous mining dump truck category.
"Battery-electric power + autonomous driving", the combination of these two features elevates the performance of this mining dump truck to new heights.
Large capacity means longer range
Equipped with an industry-leading 800kWh battery pack, it provides exceptional endurance, meeting the demands of long-distance, heavy-load uphill operations in mining areas.
Fast charging and even faster battery swapping
As the company's first mining dump truck to adopt an integrated charging and swapping solution, it can achieve efficient energy replenishment under complex conditions.
Precise perception and evolved algorithms
The perception system, composed of LiDAR, millimeter-wave radar, and cameras, ensures that every direction has "eyes". Further optimization of the algorithms allows it to accurately identify obstacles, pedestrians, and working equipment, fearless of the complex environment in mining areas.
Strong software and robust hardware
The braking system specifically designed for autonomous driving, along with a high-strength frame and chassis system, provides a reliable hardware foundation for the entire vehicle, ensuring the precision and safety of unmanned operations.
Currently, this model has successfully completed field verification in Xinjiang's mining areas. Relying on mature and reliable perception and control technology, even under extreme conditions such as sandstorms, large temperature differences between day and night, and long-distance steep slopes in mining areas, the vehicle can still stably perform the entire process of autonomous loading, transportation, and unloading, fully proving the product's reliability and environmental adaptability.
From methanol to battery-electric, Taiyuan Heavy Industries' autonomous mining dump truck product matrix is becoming increasingly complete. Taiyuan Heavy Industries is always striving to make mine operations smarter, greener, and safer.
