Peruvian Mining Delegation Visits Tuoxing Factory for Custom Underground Equipment Inspection | Tuoxing

In mid-March 2026, a technical delegation from a Peruvian mining company visited China to conduct an in-depth inspection and on-site audit of Tuoxing Heavy Industry's manufacturing base. The visit aimed to evaluate Tuoxing's capabilities in providing customized equipment tailored to the complex underground mining environments found in South America, as well as to engage in substantive business negotiations regarding potential large-scale procurement plans. As a nation rich in mineral resources, Peru's market demonstrates a continuously growing demand for underground mining equipment that is efficient, safe, and capable of operating within narrow mine roadways. Leveraging its proven track record of successful project deliveries within the Peruvian market, Tuoxing emerged as one of the key Chinese suppliers of particular interest to the visiting delegation.

Core Technical Highlights and Real-World Application Validation

Flexible Solutions for Narrow Roadways

To address the operational challenges frequently encountered in Peruvian mines—specifically those involving tight turning radii and ramp operations—Tuoxing's technical team highlighted the chassis design and power-matching solutions featured in their TU Series Underground Mining Trucks and TC Series Loaders (LHDs) . A focal point of the delegation's inspection was the TU-8 (8-ton class) mining truck , which boasts the following unique technical advantages:

- Customizable Body Dimensions: The vehicle's width and height can be adjusted to match the actual cross-sectional dimensions of the client's mine roadways, thereby maximizing volumetric utilization efficiency.

- Power Adaptability: Equipped with a standard Deutz air-cooled engine, the vehicle effectively resolves heat dissipation issues inherent to high-temperature underground environments while simultaneously meeting the South American market's requirements for spare parts interchangeability.

Intelligent Upgrades: 5G Remote Control Demonstration

In a demonstration zone simulating an underground mining environment, members of the delegation personally experienced a remote control system powered by 5G network technology. Utilizing low-latency, real-time video feeds, technical personnel stationed at a surface control center precisely executed loading, maneuvering, and dumping operations using an underground loader. The Peruvian clients expressed keen interest in this system, recognizing its potential to significantly enhance safety in deep-level mining operations by removing human operators from the high-risk environment of the mine face.

Durability Testing Data Under Rigorous Operating Conditions

Tuoxing's laboratory presented the delegation with reports on simulated wear-and-tear tests specifically designed to assess equipment durability against the rock hardness characteristics typical of Peruvian mines. Data indicates that buckets and truck bodies constructed from high-strength, wear-resistant steel demonstrate an expected service life approximately 20% longer than the industry standard under full-load operating conditions. Specifically tailored for high-altitude mines in the Peruvian Andes, Tuoxing’s electronic engine control systems have undergone specialized calibration to address power degradation issues inherent to low-oxygen environments.

Manufacturing Capabilities and Quality Control Systems

The delegation conducted an in-depth tour of Tuoxing’s digitized welding production lines, final assembly workshops, and R&D testing center.

- Precision Manufacturing Capabilities: The visit featured a live demonstration of automated robotic welding processes, which ensure the structural consistency and strength of components—thereby alleviating any potential concerns customers may have regarding weld quality.

- Comprehensive Quality Inspection: From steel pretreatment to final machine rollout testing, Tuoxing’s ISO-certified quality management system left a profound impression on the delegation. The head of the delegation stated: "The level of intelligent manufacturing and attention to detail demonstrated by the Tuoxing factory far exceeded our expectations; this is a partner worthy of long-term trust."

## Confirmation of Intent and Outlook on Strategic Cooperation

During the concluding meeting held at the end of the visit, the Peruvian delegation explicitly expressed their intent to place bulk orders for the TC-0.6 hydrostatic-drive LHD (Load-Haul-Dump) and the TC-100P power-shift LHD. Both parties also reached a preliminary consensus on the following details regarding their cooperation:

1. Localization & Adaptation: All equipment exported to Peru will come standard with a Spanish-language operating interface, warning labels, and a complete set of technical documentation in Spanish. Additionally, units will be fitted with reverse-view cameras and integrated audio-visual alarm systems to ensure strict compliance with local mining safety regulations in Peru.

2. Strategic Synergy: Both parties agreed to elevate their relationship from a simple "supply-and-demand" arrangement to one of "strategic synergy." Tuoxing will proactively engage with the client regarding their deep-mining plans for the next five years, offering early-stage consultation on equipment selection and the optimization of mine roadway designs.

The successful visit by this high-level delegation not only solidified Tuoxing's professional brand image within the Peruvian market but also marked a solid step forward for China's intelligent manufacturing sector in the competitive global landscape of mining equipment.

## Customer Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

Q: Are Tuoxing's equipment units compatible with the Deutz engine spare parts commonly found in Peruvian mines?

A: Absolutely. The core power units for our TU-series trucks and TC-series LHDs—which are exported to Peru—come standard with air-cooled Deutz engines. This configuration is highly compatible with the existing maintenance and repair infrastructure in the South American market, thereby significantly reducing spare parts inventory costs for our clients.

Q: Can Tuoxing provide custom-tailored equipment for the narrow roadways often found in older mines?

A: Yes; customization is one of Tuoxing's core strengths. Based on the roadway cross-section diagrams provided by the client, we can redesign the equipment—adjusting its width, height, and bucket capacity—to ensure it operates with maximum efficiency even within extremely confined spaces.

Q: Are the equipment's operating interface and instruction manuals available in Spanish?

A: Yes. To ensure compliance with local Peruvian regulations and facilitate ease of use for operators, all equipment we export to Peru comes standard with a Spanish-language operating interface, dashboard, and a complete set of technical documentation, as well as warning labels in Spanish.

Q: How long does it typically take from the signing of the contract to delivery at a Peruvian port?

A: For equipment with standard configurations, the delivery lead time is typically 3 to 4 months. For customized orders involving significant structural modifications, we will confirm the specific schedule once the technical design has been finalized. We recommend discussing your specific requirements with our sales engineers in advance to ensure that production capacity is reserved for your project.

Q: Does Tuoxing have an after-sales service center or resident engineers stationed in Peru?

A: We have a long-term strategic plan for serving the South American market. Currently, we provide spare parts warehousing and technical support through our local contracted partners. Additionally, engineers from our headquarters in China are available at any time to provide remote guidance or travel quickly to Peru—upon obtaining a visa—to resolve any major technical issues on-site.
