Clients from Burkina Faso Visit Aorun to Inspect the HOWO 8x4 Dump Truck

AORUN | 2026-6-1

The HOWO 8x4 heavy-duty Truck--Tipper-Truck----The-Ultimate-Solution-for-Heavy-Duty-Engineering---Mining.html" >dump truck features an integral, double-layer (8+8mm) frame beam constructed from high-tensile alloy steel. Its chassis frame possesses exceptional deformation recovery capabilities, enabling it to withstand the instantaneous impact stresses generated when large excavators dump ore weighing several tons.

The rear axle features a heavy-duty cast steel drive axle, characterized by a high reduction ratio and superior off-road passability. Coupled with dual inter-wheel and inter-axle differential locks, it demonstrates exceptional traction—measured by its adhesion coefficient—when fully loaded and operating on unpaved, rugged terrain.

Addressing the environment of swirling dry sand and high-concentration dust prevalent in Burkina Faso's landlocked Sahel region, technical personnel at the Aorun facility conducted an on-site demonstration of the three-stage oil-bath desert air filtration system installed on this batch of vehicles. With a gas-solid separation efficiency exceeding 99.5%, this system completely eliminates abnormal cylinder scoring and wear caused by the ingress of fine sand and dust into the cylinders.

To safeguard against the typical hot, humid, and high-salinity marine climate encountered during sea transport to West African ports, Aorun employs a comprehensive three-layer polyurethane anti-corrosion coating process for the entire vehicle. Furthermore, prior to shipment, we apply a thorough, all-encompassing anti-corrosion wax spray to ensure that the chassis and valve boxes remain protected against oxidative corrosion throughout the long-distance voyage.

West Africa Cross-Border Trade & One-Stop Procurement FAQ

Q: Burkina Faso is a landlocked country; how does Aorun ensure the safe delivery of this batch of HOWO 8x4 dump trucks?

A: We possess a highly mature multimodal logistics network for West Africa. When vehicles depart from major Chinese ports, Aorun strictly adheres to Roll-on/Roll-off (RO-RO) vessel standards, ensuring they are always stowed *inside* the ship's hold—never on the open deck. Furthermore, the entire vehicle is coated with anti-corrosion wax prior to loading. The cargo vessels typically dock at the Port of Tema in Ghana or the Port of Lomé in Togo. After customs clearance at the port of arrival, a professional fleet of cross-border drivers—long-term partners of Aorun—takes over. They transport the vehicles directly across border crossings via a "drive-away" method, delivering them straight to Ouagadougou for final customs clearance and handover.

Q: What should overseas buyers do if they are staying in other Chinese cities and cannot fly directly to the factory in Liangshan, Shandong, to inspect the vehicles?

A: For clients unable to fly directly to Shandong, Aorun leverages an efficient "Front Office, Back Factory" collaborative system. You are welcome to visit our offices in Yiwu, Jinan, or our business center in Guangzhou—whichever is most convenient for you—to conduct negotiations and finalize settlements. Within these offices, we have installed dedicated large-format HD screens that establish a real-time, high-definition video link directly to our modern production base in Liangshan, Jining. Our bilingual technical engineers will guide you through a live, 3D-style demonstration using handheld cameras—showcasing the engine's cold start, cargo box lifting stability tests, and brake air-pressure retention tests—thereby delivering a 100% transparent "Cloud Inspection" experience.

Q: Is it convenient to obtain spare parts and perform routine maintenance for HOWO heavy-duty trucks locally in Burkina Faso?

A: HOWO is the leading brand among Chinese heavy-duty trucks in terms of market share and vehicle population across the entire West African and Sahel regions. In Ouagadougou—as well as at truck repair shops and spare parts stores situated along major cross-border transport routes—components such as filters for the 371-horsepower engine, brake pads, drive belts, and high-pressure fuel pump parts are readily available. Consequently, maintenance costs are remarkably low. Additionally, Aorun will provide a complimentary onboard kit containing a set of original, high-frequency wear parts packaged with every vehicle.
