L4 Autonomous Electric Mining Truck & Unmanned Battery Swap Haulage Solution

Full-stack iDrive Autonomous System, Pure Electric Cabless Mining Haulers, 6-min Automatic Battery Swap, Turnkey Zero-Carbon Open Pit Mine Solution

This L4 autonomous haulage solution features full-stack self-developed autonomous driving, vehicle control and battery swap technology. It provides two delivery modes: brand-new “Electric Bull” series pure electric autonomous mining trucks (including cabless models), and autonomous retrofit kits for existing mining haulers. The system forms a closed-loop operation covering automatic loading, dumping, obstacle avoidance, fleet scheduling and unmanned battery swapping. With more than 30 commercial mine projects globally, it is specially optimized for large open-pit mines pursuing low carbon emission and 24/7 non-stop haulage production.

Important Note: This system is designed for open-pit surface mines only. Underground mining requires separate explosion-proof certification; standard autonomous kits cannot be deployed directly in underground gassy hazardous zones.

Core Key Advantages

• Full-Stack Autonomy + Unmanned Battery Swap Core Technology Full self-developed iDrive autonomous driving system and line-by-wire chassis. Automatic battery swap completed within only 6 minutes, enabling non-stop 24-hour mining operation, eliminating long charging downtime. The whole system integrates autonomous driving, electric drive and energy replenishment into one closed-loop solution.
• Cabless Pure Electric Heavy-Duty Mining Truck Options Electric Bull series pure electric autonomous haulers including 105t and 145t heavy payload models. The 145t cabless version is one of the world’s largest pure electric autonomous mining trucks, greatly cutting fuel consumption and carbon emissions for open-pit mines.
• Proven in Large-Scale Commercial Mine Sites Successfully deployed in over 30 mining projects, accumulated 60+ million km safe operation. Achieved safety-driver-free night production, with stable operation in coal, iron, copper and limestone mines under heavy dust and low-temperature plateau environments.
• Flexible Business Modes for Mine Clients Multiple cooperation options available: sell complete autonomous trucks, supply retrofit kits, provide fleet leasing and mining transport operation services, suitable for clients with different CAPEX budgets.
• Digital Twin & Multi-Machine Coordination Cloud dispatching platform supports mixed manned-unmanned fleet, and coordinated operation of excavators, drills and auxiliary mining vehicles. Built-in digital twin visualization system for real-time mine monitoring and fleet management.
• Strong Adaptability for Harsh Mine Conditions Optimized for heavy dust, high altitude, extreme cold climate, steep haul ramps and rough unmarked mine roads. Reliable operation in plateau and northern frigid open pit mines.

Suitable Regions & Countries

• Australia: Large open-pit iron & gold mines, high labour cost, strict mine safety and ESG carbon requirements.
• South America (Brazil, Chile, Peru): Large iron ore mines, ESG-driven green transformation demand, suitable for pure electric unmanned haulage.
• Central Asia & Mongolia: High altitude, frigid open-pit coal mines, long haul ramps and severe winter environment.
• Southeast Asia: Bauxite, limestone and gold open pit mines for green electrification upgrade.
• Africa & Middle East: Large mines facing labour shortage, hot and dusty working conditions, carbon reduction requirements.

Working Application Scenarios

• Large open-pit coal mine, iron ore, copper, gold, bauxite and limestone quarry
• Mine projects requiring zero-carbon, low emission, pure electric transportation
• Mines pursuing 24/7 continuous haulage with fast automatic energy replenishment
• Mines planning phased unmanned upgrade with mixed manned & unmanned fleet operation
• High-altitude, severe cold, heavy dust, steep ramp open pit mining sites
• Large-scale mines with high ESG requirements and carbon reduction targets

Key Technical Specifications

Project Considerations

• Core advantage: unmanned battery swap. 6-minute auto battery swap realizes round-the-clock mining operation, ideal for large mines with high daily haul volume.
• Two options for clients: Purchase our integrated pure electric autonomous mining trucks, or retrofit existing mining fleet with our autonomous system.
• ESG & carbon reduction value: Pure electric design helps mines cut carbon emission and meet global ESG requirements for mining investment.
• Phased upgrade path: Safety monitoring → remote control → L4 no-safety-driver operation, helping mine control CAPEX step by step.
• Site assessment required: Site survey to evaluate haul roads, wireless communication and battery swap station layout before project implementation.
