DR Congo Mining Enterprise Secures Joint Fleet Order of Sinotruk Hohan Tractor Truck and HOWO Crane Truck from Aorun Factory

Synergy Engineering for Congolese Mining & Infrastructure Projects

Operating heavy equipment across DRC’s challenging terrain—ranging from muddy tropical bypasses to remote Katanga quarry tracks—requires a combination of high towing capacity, self-reliant lifting capabilities, and mechanical fuel system tolerances.

1. Sinotruk Hohan 6x4 Tractor Truck: High-Efficiency Long-Haul Transport

• High-Torque Powertrain: Driven by a Weichai WP10 / Sinotruk WD615 series engine (371HP to 400HP) paired with HW19710 10-speed manual transmission, delivering reliable torque output for pulling 50+ ton semi-trailers.

• Reinforced MAN-Tech Chassis: Equipped with HF9 9-ton front steering axles and HC16 16-ton double-reduction rear drive axles with inter-wheel differential locks, ensuring traction on unpaved mining bypasses.

• Tropicalized Driver Cabin: Features a widened sleeper cab with high-capacity air conditioning and multi-stage fuel-water separators to resist dirty local fuel injection wear.

2. Sinotruk HOWO Truck Mounted Crane: Independent Cargo Handling

• High-Capacity Telescopic / Knuckle Crane: Integrated with top-tier crane brands (XCMG, SQ, or PALFINGER) offering 10-ton to 14-ton lifting capacities with 360-degree continuous rotation.

• Dual-Function Flatbed Cargo Box: Built with 5.5m to 6.2m high-strength steel cargo sideboards, enabling the truck to lift, load, transport, and unload heavy generators, pipes, and mining gear without requiring third-party mobile cranes.

• Outrigger Hydraulic Stability: Outfitted with front and rear hydraulic H-type outriggers to guarantee operational stability on soft ground.

Direct Factory Verification & Combined Ocean Freight Efficiency

The DR Congo client joint order for Hohan tractor and HOWO crane truck highlights the logistics and procurement advantages offered to Central African fleet managers:

• Factory Floor Inspection: Congolese engineers personally audited hydraulic line pressure tests, chassis anti-corrosion dipping, and crane boom load-stress tests at Aorun's Jining Liangshan manufacturing base.

• Combined RORO / Bulk Shipping: Both vehicles are shipped under a single maritime consignment from Qingdao or Tianjin Port directly to Port of Matadi (DRC) or via East African transit ports (Dares Salaam, Tanzania / Durban, South Africa), lowering total shipping fees per vehicle.

• Commercial Network: Trade financing, pre-shipment inspections, and French-language export documentation are facilitated through our commercial hubs in Guangzhou, Yiwu, and Jinan.
