09 Mar 2026 CW Team

All equipment presented at the exhibition complies with North American certification standards, with several models specifically developed to meet local regulatory requirements and site conditions. One of the highlights was the ZRT1500V6 rough-terrain crane, designed for the North American market. The crane features a six-section 198.5-ft elliptical boom and a self-loading counterweight system that keeps transport weight within regional road limits, allowing easier relocation between job sites. The enlarged operator cab is designed to enhance comfort and on-site usability.

The company also presented earthmoving equipment suited for North American applications. This included compact excavators for municipal and confined-space projects as well as the ZE500G large excavator designed for demanding mining and earthwork operations. The ZE500G incorporates a high-horsepower engine and an advanced cooling system intended to improve operational reliability and simplify maintenance in challenging environments.

In the concrete equipment segment, a pump truck configured with a North America-specific chassis drew significant attention. The machine offers a maximum vertical reach of 151 ft and uses carbon-fibre boom sections to reduce weight while increasing effective load capacity.

Zoomlion reported strong customer engagement during the opening day of the exhibition, completing equipment deliveries on site and signing multiple cooperation agreements across crane, earthmoving and concrete machinery categories.

Tan Ruxu, Deputy General Manager of Zoomlion’s Overseas Company, stated that North America remains an important market for the company’s global expansion strategy. He noted that Zoomlion will continue strengthening its local service network and support capabilities to respond efficiently to customer requirements and deliver reliable project performance with partners.
