SANY, the construction, mining, logistics, and energy equipment manufacturer, unveiled India’s first hybrid off-highway 100-ton off-highway 100-ton mining dump truck with localised manufacturing at its factory in Pune. This cutting-edge addition to SANY’s range of mining equipment marks a significant step towards enhancing the nation’s self-reliance in manufacturing the next generation of mining machinery with world-leading technology.
Engineered to deliver exceptional power, efficiency, and operator safety, the SKT130S is equipped with a high-performance 925 kW rated power engine that generates an impressive 3200 Nm of torque, ensuring superior durability in challenging mining environments. Designed for heavy-duty applications, the truck features a 100-ton payload capacity and a 61 CuM heaped body capacity, making it a formidable asset in the mining sector.
Deepak Garg, Vice Chairman & Managing Director of Sany India and South Asia, said, “The introduction of the SKT130S is a remarkable achievement in our journey towards driving innovation and self-reliance in India’s mining sector. As India’s first 100-ton diesel-electric hybrid mining truck, the SKT130S demonstrates SANY India’s commitment to delivering high-performance, efficient, and safe solutions to meet the industry's evolving demands. Our focus on localisation supports India’s manufacturing vision and ensures that we bring cutting-edge technology to enhance productivity in mining operations.”
The SKT130S is expected to deliver fuel savings of 20% -25% compared to conventional mining trucks. Its key feature is a regenerative braking system, which allows the high-voltage battery to charge during downhill operation.
The SKT130S is designed to deliver optimum performance. It features an intelligent control module that ensures seamless operations and a 10-inch central control screen that enhances navigation and safety. Built with a strong focus on operator safety, the truck cabin is equipped with FOPS/ROPS certification, ensuring compliance with global safety standards while maintaining strength and agility.
Reaffirming its commitment to the Government of India’s ‘Make in India’ initiative, SANY India has localised the SKT130S and is actively working towards further localising major components.
The launch of the SKT130S positions SANY at the forefront of technological advancements in the mining sector. Moving forward, SANY remains committed to increasing localisation efforts and introducing innovative solutions that drive operational efficiency and sustainability in the industry.
