Pain Points and Solutions

User Core Pain Point

Exclusive Solution

Direct Value for Users

Extreme mining site conditions including low temperature, high dust and flammable gas cause electric start motors to fail frequently, leading to unplanned downtime

Pneumatic motor design with explosion-proof, moisture-proof and dust-proof performance, operating temperature range of -30°C to 65°C, customizable for wider temperature ranges

Reduce unplanned downtime by up to 40% compared to traditional electric start systems

Heavy-duty giant mining truck diesel engines require high starting torque, but conventional start motors overheat and fail under repeated heavy load starts

Patented axial load-bearing structure, overload-resistant design, compatible with mainstream diesel engines including Cummins, Weichai, Perkins, Mitsubishi Heavy Industries and Daihatsu

Extend motor service life by 3 times compared to standard start motors

Limited replacement part availability for imported start motors leads to long lead times and high maintenance costs

Full range of replacement models compatible with Ingersoll Rand, Cooper, Gast and TONYSUN start motors, with annual production capacity of 80,000 to 100,000 units

Cut maintenance lead time by 60% and reduce replacement costs by 35%
