Albeit that no one sits behind the steering wheel, a number of ore transport vehicles are passing through the depths of a vast outdoor copper mine in Kazakhstan in an orderly way between mine pits and storage terminals under targeted instructions. This is how remote control systems and driverless equipment independently developed by Qingdao Fambition Heavy Machinery Co., Ltd. perform on working sites.

As the implementation of the Belt and Road Initiative advances, mines in Central Asia are becoming speedily an international arena where Chinese-made high-end intelligent equipment delivers a stunning performance. Fambition Heavy Machinery, a company based in Qingdao that is venturing abroad, is resorting to innovation to speed up the application of its smart equipment in the exploitation of “intelligent mines” across the world, a newly developing sector. The company’s exports to Central Asia surpassed the RMB 50 mln mark in 2025, two and a half times as much as that in 2024.

Since the beginning of 2019, Fambition Heavy Machinery has been bolstering its global presence and taking steps to improve local services, whose overseas service network has currently covered its principal markets.  (Li Deyin)
