China's heavy equipment makers did not concentrate their overseas moves on a single market or product line last week. An all-electric wide-body hauler was working a live basalt quarry in Homberg, Germany; integrated mining equipment filled a hall in Jakarta; smart mining solutions took the stage in Perth; and a new mining dump truck was unveiled in Belo Horizonte. Four exhibitions across Europe, Southeast Asia, Oceania and South America — and, on the same chain, the first KD-assembled electric heavy truck rolled off the line in Türkiye while the GALAXUS fleet set out on a nationwide real-road roadshow in Mexico. Exhibitions and deliveries, in other words, are now feeding one another rather than running in parallel.
This issue covers nine developments: two from the heavy-truck sector, four from construction machinery, and three deliveries and orders. Beyond the numbers, the change worth noting is one of rhythm. Exhibitions are turning from product showcases into on-site performance tests, and local assembly and local service networks are becoming a precondition for orders rather than a supporting act.
After closing out its Peru stop, the Auman GALAXUS Global Value Tour moved into Mexico, adding further reach to the brand's dealer network and reputation across Latin America.
The GALAXUS fleet held a launch ceremony in Mexico City and started a nationwide real-road roadshow covering key commercial and logistics hubs including Mexico City and Querétaro. Professional test drives were staged at local CEDIS service centres for industry media, channel partners and end customers. Tested against Mexico's long-haul routes and complex road conditions, GALAXUS heavy trucks demonstrated their core strengths in energy efficiency, reliability and intelligent comfort — a close fit for what Latin American logistics operators need, and a further lift for Auman's brand influence and channel penetration in the region.
On September 9, SANY Trucks held a market launch event in Türkiye, marking the formal start of its systematic, large-scale local operation, extending the brand's strategic reach across Eurasia and opening a route into the Central and Eastern European and Black Sea markets.
At the event, SANY Trucks signed and authorised local dealers, putting in place nationwide sales, service and spare-parts coverage — a closed loop of localised support. In parallel, the first fully electric heavy truck equipped with a 636 kWh battery rolled off the line at SANY's Turkish KD plant, bringing local assembly and local delivery of new energy trucks on stream to shorten lead times and speed up response at the point of service. Türkiye sits at the junction of Europe and Asia and is a key hub for regional logistics and mine haulage. SANY is using the country as a strategic springboard for Central and Eastern Europe and the Black Sea, pairing localised production and service with high-quality new energy heavy trucks and integrated transport solutions to move the industrialisation of Chinese new energy trucking abroad.
Steinexpo 2026, one of Europe's best-known working-mining exhibitions, was held in Homberg, Hesse, Germany, in early September. Staged inside a large working basalt quarry, the event runs live demonstrations that show how equipment performs under real conditions. It is one of the most authoritative platforms for Europe's mining and aggregates sectors — and a valuable window for Chinese green and intelligent mining machinery entering the European market.
Tonly Heavy Industry brought its self-developed DTE95 all-electric wide-body dump truck — the industry's first electric mining truck fitted with wide-base tyres. The model handles muddy and rough quarry roads, carries a smart-upgrade interface on its chassis for unmanned convoy operation, and has already passed field verification in Poland with stable performance. XCMG exhibited at the show for the first time, displaying its full line of electric excavators, loaders and mobile energy storage equipment and running live demonstrations of coordinated mining operations. Its combined "electric equipment plus energy supply" package addresses the problem of charging electric machinery at off-grid mine sites and underscores the core strengths of Chinese green mining equipment.
The 2026 Indonesia International Construction Machinery and Mining Exhibition ran from September 9 to 12 at the Jakarta Convention Centre. Focused on mineral development and low-carbon transition in Southeast Asia, it is a key platform for localised cooperation in the region.
SDHI exhibited as a group with five brands — Weichai, Sinotruk, Shacman, Shantui and Lovol — presenting a full-chain matrix of intelligent mining equipment, all specially calibrated for Indonesia's high temperatures, dusty conditions and B50 biodiesel. Multiple strategic agreements were signed during the show, further building out local R&D, manufacturing and service capabilities. Cummins exhibited alongside, showing its full range of off-road engines and generator sets optimised for the country's hot, humid conditions and biodiesel standards. Backed by global technology and full-lifecycle service, Cummins continues to support Chinese OEMs going overseas and the low-carbon upgrade of Southeast Asian mining.
The 2nd Asia-Pacific Iron Ore Supply-Demand & Investment Development Conference took place in Perth, Australia, from September 2 to 4. As the event's exclusive strategic partner, SANY Group attended with senior executives and presented integrated green and intelligent mining solutions aimed at the transformation and upgrading of Australia's mining industry.
SANY set out an "ecosystem collaboration" approach to mining, combining intelligent equipment, new energy technology, digital management and full-lifecycle services to address three core industry challenges: cost, safety and carbon. Its hybrid mine haulage equipment delivers clear fuel savings, with several units set to enter the Pilbara. Across Asia-Pacific, SANY's large-scale deployment of autonomous mining trucks is a standout, and its unmanned operating mileage leads the industry. With an established equipment operation system and local service network in Australia, the company continues to root itself in the market and deepen strategic cooperation with leading Australian miners.
EXPOSIBRAM 2026, one of South America's most influential mining exhibitions, was recently held in Belo Horizonte, Minas Gerais, offering a significant window for Chinese construction machinery brands in the region's mineral market.
SANY Group showcased its core electric and intelligent technologies alongside integrated green mining solutions, and unveiled a new mining dump truck on site, broadening its mine haulage portfolio. Also on display were its mainstay lines for intelligent compaction, excavation and loading, together with equipment connectivity, intelligent operations and integrated generation-grid-load-storage energy systems, forming a complete smart mining framework. The show drew strong interest from local Brazilian miners, expanding SANY's pool of quality customers in South America and reinforcing its strategic position in the region's mining market.
On September 10, 2026, SANY Heavy Machinery delivered a second batch of customised excavators to a well-known European equipment rental company. The machines will serve as core rental units at the customer's outlets across France. Cumulative deliveries to this customer now approach 200 units, a reflection of the brand's recognition in Europe's high-end construction machinery market. Built to strict local operating conditions and market access rules, the batch was localised and CE-certified to meet Europe's high requirements for safety and reliability, strengthening the customer base for SANY's high-end European business.
On September 10, 2026, XCMG shipped batches of XDA45 articulated dump trucks bound for African mine sites, suited to the local mix of heat, mud and steep gradients. The model operates at ambient temperatures of up to 50°C; six-wheel drive, articulated steering and a reinforced frame improve durability and terrain adaptability. A customised mining engine lifts climbing efficiency by 5% and cuts fuel consumption by 8%. Multi-stage braking, a certified safety cab and an intelligent monitoring system keep operations safe and controlled. Longer service intervals and easier maintenance — supported by XCMG's localised service network in Africa — reduce operating costs and give African mines an efficient, cost-effective haulage solution.
FAW Jiefang's Zambia office has signed an agreement with a major local logistics company for 100 JH6 tractors, to be used mainly for long-haul transport in Zambia. Zambia is a priority market in FAW Jiefang's international strategy, and the 100-unit order marks a key breakthrough for the brand in the country's commercial vehicle market. Reliable product performance and strong localised service have earned the customer's recognition, and both sides will keep working together on transport solutions tailored to local needs, supporting the upgrade of Zambia's logistics sector and its high-quality development.
First, delivery is moving ahead of the sale. A KD plant rolling trucks off the line in Türkiye, machines built to order for individual outlets in France, vehicles specified to mine-site conditions in Africa — the unit of competition abroad is no longer a single machine but a package of equipment, production line and local service. Whoever can compress delivery and maintenance into the customer's own timetable is the one most likely to turn exhibition attention into repeat orders.
Second, charging and certification remain the two gates. XCMG's "electric equipment plus mobile energy storage" points straight at the practical limits of off-grid mine sites, while CE compliance and local customisation in Europe show that high-barrier markets do not open on price alone. From here, the economics of electric haul trucks and heavy trucks will be settled not by range figures but by energy and maintenance cost per tonne-kilometre.
Third, autonomous haulage is moving from demonstration to billable operation. SANY's unmanned operating mileage already leads the industry; if its hybrid and autonomous units in the Pilbara move into per-tonne or per-kilometre commercial contracts in the second half of 2026, the role of Chinese suppliers shifts from equipment vendor to haulage service provider.
Measured against that, this week's multi-market moves are only the opening act. What decides the landscape is whether the intentions signed at these shows turn, in the next quarter, into line cycle times and the density of overseas service networks.
