Powder Tank Truck Project

Overseas Customized Powder Tank Semi-Trailer Project Successfully Delivered with Repeat Orders Secured

1. Project Background: Precise Insight into Overseas Market Needs Leads to Deep Customization Collaboration
During its active expansion into overseas markets, Zhongtian Jinjun established initial contact with a major transportation enterprise in the Middle East. This client faced persistent challenges in transporting powdered materials (such as cement and fly ash) under high-temperature, dusty conditions—including low efficiency, severe tank wear, and poor unloading performance—urgently requiring a specialized powder tank semi-trailer adapted to local extreme operating conditions.
Addressing this critical need, our company swiftly formed a cross-functional project team comprising Overseas Trade, R&D Design, Procurement Management, Manufacturing, and Quality Control. This team formally launched the “Olive Project” development initiative, dedicated to creating an export-grade powder tank trailer featuring high reliability, strong adaptability, and a superior operational experience.
2. Collaborative Innovation: Multi-Round Technical Discussions and Targeted Design Breakthroughs
Throughout the project, our company prioritized deep engagement with the client, organizing over 10 online technical exchange meetings covering critical aspects such as tank structure, material selection, fluidized bed layout, pneumatic system configuration, and coating processes. Through thorough research into Saudi Arabia's climate characteristics (high temperatures, arid conditions), road conditions (high proportion of unpaved surfaces), and end-user operating habits, our R&D team proposed three core optimization solutions:
Enhanced Chassis Durability: Adopted high-strength alloy steel chassis with reinforced critical load-bearing sections, paired with heavy-duty suspension systems. This reduces failure rates while significantly improving vehicle stability and service life on complex terrain.
Optimized Fluidization System Layout: Introduced a novel honeycomb fluidized bed and adjustable differential pressure air control system. This ensures over 99.5% efficient unloading under varying air pressure conditions.
Flexible Material Handling: Optimized discharge piping and outlet structures with modular designs adapt to diverse material properties (density, flowability, etc.), enabling efficient transport and unloading of cement, fly ash, mineral powder, and other granular materials. This eliminates the need for specialized vehicles while boosting vehicle utilization.
Following client approval, these designs entered rapid prototyping.
3. Rigorous Validation: Comprehensive Quality Control from Prototype Development to Heavy-Load Testing
The first customized prototype completed trial production and underwent multiple loading/unloading tests on the company's test tower. Key metrics including unloading speed and material residue rate met design specifications. Subsequently, the company conducted heavy-load testing over approximately one week across complex road conditions—urban streets, mountain inclines, and unpaved surfaces. Tests included full-load operation, continuous unloading cycles, and vibration fatigue testing, with all metrics exceeding expected standards.
Subsequently, the company entered mass production and trial deployment. The first batch of 15 units was shipped to the Middle East for field validation. With local partners' assistance, vehicle transportation environments spanned urban roads, desert trails, and steep inclines. Customer feedback indicated the new model reduced unloading time by approximately 20%, lowered fuel consumption by about 8%, and halved maintenance frequency, earning unanimous praise from frontline drivers and fleet managers.
The success of this initial order not only validated the product's technical feasibility but also strengthened the customer's trust in our company's professional capabilities.
4. Mass Delivery and Continuous Repeat Purchases: Establishing a Sustainable International Cooperation Model
Based on the outstanding performance of the prototype vehicles, the customer placed additional orders totaling nearly 50 units throughout 2025. To date, all vehicles have been successfully delivered and put into operation, with an overall failure rate below the industry average and after-sales satisfaction exceeding 97%.
More significantly, this project has evolved from a single-product collaboration into a long-term strategic partnership. The client has explicitly designated Zhongtian Jinjun as a preferred supplier for vehicle procurement over the next five years and plans to explore further cooperation on other specialized vehicle models.
The successful implementation of this project vividly demonstrates our company's commitment to the “global thinking, local execution” strategy and marks a crucial milestone in Zhongtian Jinjun's transformation from a traditional manufacturer to a high-end solutions provider. We firmly believe: every precise alignment with customer needs is a stride toward becoming a world-class brand; every trust entrusted by our clients fuels our shared drive to create a better life.
