- Mining contractor operating a fleet of 6×4 and 8×4 heavy trucks
Overview
A mining contractor running Chinese-built heavy trucks at high altitude needed replacement engines to keep the fleet running through a multi-year contract.
Challenge
Trucks of two different makes used different engines, and the contractor had no local dealer support. They needed complete engine assemblies ready to drop in, with electronic control units and wiring, plus a stock of high-wear parts.
Solution
| Item | Model | Qty |
|---|---|---|
| Truck diesel engine | Cummins ISDe300 40, 300 HP, 6-cylinder | 8 |
| Truck diesel engine | Weichai WP13.530E40, 530 HP, 6-cylinder | 6 |
| Engine accessories | ECU, wiring harness, turbocharger, clutch assembly matched per engine | 14 sets |
| Parts stock | Filters, injectors, water pumps, belts, gaskets | 1 lot |
Scope of supply
Engine identification from chassis and engine-plate photographs, supply of complete engine assemblies, inspection video for each engine, export crating, CIF Callao, and a parts catalogue cross-reference for the customer's workshop.
Outcome
Fourteen trucks were returned to service without local dealer involvement. The contractor now orders high-wear parts on a quarterly basis.
Customer names are withheld; the case describes a typical supply scope built from products in the MARS catalogue.
