A client from Zimbabwe visited Aorun’s Liangshan factory in person to carefully select a Howo 6x4 chassis and finalize an order for extensive heavy-duty tipper bodywork modification.

The customer visited the chassis preparation area to inspect the chassis's integral, high-tensile, double-layer alloy steel stamped side rails. On-site, engineers used calipers to measure the rail thickness and the positioning of load-bearing reinforcement plates; they also demonstrated the superior performance of the pure mechanical cold-riveting process in mitigating localized stress concentrations, effectively dispelling the customer's concerns regarding frame fractures or vehicle misalignment when navigating the harsh, bumpy terrain of the African interior.

Immediately after the order was finalized on-site, the factory’s technical director and foreign trade engineers held a dedicated technical alignment meeting with the client beside the welding production line. To withstand the transient impact of large chunks of chrome ore falling from a height at the client's mining site, the Aorun team custom-designed a reinforced, wear-resistant steel cargo body—featuring a rectangular or U-shaped profile—and finalized the technical specifications for a front-mounted, long-stroke hydraulic lifting cylinder.

During an on-site technical inspection, Aorun’s Quality Control Supervisor provided the client with a detailed breakdown of the technical highlights involved in converting the Howo 6x4 chassis into a heavy-duty dump truck. The vehicle features a dual-layer frame constructed from 8+8mm high-strength alloy steel, with high-rigidity longitudinal members secured by continuous transverse support beams. This design effectively dissipates the complex, alternating torsional stresses experienced by the chassis during lifting operations or heavy-load transport, thereby ensuring the vehicle's overall driving stability.

Prior to delivery to the port, professional foreign trade engineers apply a comprehensive, heavy-duty, marine-grade anti-corrosion wax coating to critical areas—including chassis longitudinal beams, drive shafts, steering knuckles, air brake valve housings, and hard-to-reach sections of the brake lines. The vehicles are shipped via Roll-on/Roll-off (Ro-Ro) vessels with under-deck stowage, establishing a robust physical barrier that ensures the vehicle arrives in "like-new" condition after the transoceanic voyage.

Q: As overseas buyers primarily based in Guangzhou or Yiwu, what should we do if it is inconvenient to travel to the Shandong factory every time we want to inspect the vehicles?

A: This is precisely where Aorun’s core cross-border advantage—a highly efficient, digitized "front-end showroom, back-end factory" supply chain—comes into play. In addition to visiting our modern production base in Liangshan, Jining (Shandong) in person, you can visit any of our local offline locations, including our business center in Guangzhou, our Yiwu office, or our Jinan office. Each office is equipped with a high-definition digital display that eliminates time-zone barriers, enabling direct, high-definition video links to the Liangshan factory. Bilingual technical engineers use handheld mobile cameras to provide live demonstrations—such as chassis assembly, cargo body welding, or hydraulic pressure testing for dump trucks—ensuring 100% transparency while seamlessly integrating business transactions with factory-floor quality inspections.
