Zoomlion’s ZE3000ELs shovel is the firm’s largest ever hydraulic excavator
From 1175 Zoomlion comes a surprise launch at bauma China in the shape of its impressive 300tonne class shovel, the ZE3000ELs. This huge machine is powered by a 196 Cummins QSK50 diesel rated at 1,044kW for this installation. The machine wields a 17m3 bucket, allowing it to pass match loading of rigid dump trucks in the 100tonne payload class. According to Zoomlion, the development of this excavator involved the registering of 39 patents. It is the largest ever hydraulic shovel developed and built in China and takes the firm’s excavator line-up into the market for removing overburden from large quarries as well as mining operations.

    January 6, 2017
    ZF used bauma 2013 to show the next stage of development for its cPower continuously variable transmission (CVT). By combining the transmission with a hybrid module, ZF said greater operating efficiencies were available from the integration of start/stop technology and energy recovery from regenerative braking. Potentially, the hybrid drive system has the ability to boost fuel efficiency by up to 25% in addition to the 20% higher operating efficiency already offered by the cPower transmission, said ZF.
