From May 12 to 15, the 3rd Changsha International Construction Equipment Exhibition (hereinafter referred to as 2023 CICEE) was held at the Changsha International Convention and Exhibition Center and the Changsha International Conference Center. At this high-end, cutting-edge "mecha feast," the Yutong YTR206AE pure electric rotary drilling rig and the Yutong YTR456HE extended-range electric rotary drilling rig won the 2023 CICEE "Golden Gear Innovative Technology Award" with their strength!

At this top global event, regarded as a "weather vane" for the world construction machinery industry, the Yutong YTR206AE and YTR456HE electric rotary drilling rigs stood out from numerous exhibited products, once again confirming the leading position and hardcore strength of Yutong electric rotary drilling rigs in the industry!

The "Golden Gear Award" is a highly anticipated industry award in the global construction machinery industry. Since its inception, the "Golden Gear Award" has paid tribute to innovation and recorded the era, taking stock of the highest achievements in the construction machinery industry and witnessing the benchmark power of industry innovation. As a booster of the global construction machinery industry's development, the CICEE Organizing Committee hosts the "Golden Gear Award" selection event, aiming to introduce the latest technological achievements and product intelligent application results in the global construction machinery field to the world.

The fact that both Yutong electric rotary drilling rigs won awards this time is both recognition and praise, and also fully deserved. Relying on Yutong's strong new energy technology and nearly 20 years of rotary drilling rig R&D experience, Yutong Heavy Equipment has made rapid breakthroughs in the R&D and production of electric rotary drilling rigs. In 2020, it launched its first motor direct-drive pure electric rotary drilling rig, and in 2021 it successively launched extended-range electric rotary drilling rigs, enabling electric technology to be truly and effectively applied to rotary drilling rigs, fully in line with national strategy, industry trends, and market demand.

Yutong electric rotary drilling rigs can effectively reduce carbon emissions. Each electric rotary drilling rig reduces carbon emissions by an average of 700 tons per year, equivalent to planting about 6,000 trees, meeting the environmental protection requirements of local governments. In addition, Yutong electric rotary drilling rigs are energy-saving and efficient: the pure electric mode saves 70%-80% energy, and the extended-range mode saves 40%-50% energy. The power of the power head winch motor is 20%-30% higher than that of fuel rotary drilling rigs of the same class. When drilling hard formations, the instantaneous overload capacity enables the power head to obtain greater explosive force and break rock formations faster.

At present, Yutong electric rotary drilling rigs cover nearly 10 models from 166 to 506, covering more than 80% of rotary drilling construction conditions. They have traveled across 15 provincial-level administrative regions nationwide, with cumulative operation exceeding 20,000 hours. Having withstood tests under extreme conditions such as severe cold, high heat, high humidity, and hard rock, they demonstrate the ultimate characteristics of high safety, high performance, and low energy consumption, have won comprehensive user recognition, and also contribute to the country's commitment to "dual carbon."

Amid the wave of low-carbon emission requirements and the vigorous development of electric technology, the electric construction machinery industry is ushering in major opportunities endowed by the new era. Yutong Heavy Equipment will continue to leverage its technological advantages and, relying on high-quality products and services, contribute Yutong's strength to the "electrification" process of construction machinery and create greater value for customers!
