On May 28, 2026, China Construction Harbour & Navigation Bureau Group Co., Ltd. successfully held an expert review meeting for the equipment of SPIC Guinea Alumina Development Project at Jiangsu Zhongkuang Heavy Equipment Co., Ltd. The meeting focused on special technical review and demonstration of core equipment including the 6000t/h bucket wheel stacker-reclaimer, ship loader and belt conveyor, laying a solid technical foundation for the delivery and commissioning of project equipment.
The review meeting featured a professional lineup and complete participant hierarchy. Attendees included management staff and technical backbones from relevant entities engaged in project construction, design, engineering and equipment manufacturing, namely SPIC Aluminum & Power Jinhai Co., Ltd., SPIC Shandong Electric Power Engineering Consulting Institute Co., Ltd., China Construction Harbour & Navigation Bureau Group Co., Ltd. and Jiangsu Zhongkuang Heavy Equipment Co., Ltd. In addition, a special review panel composed of senior industry experts was invited, who conducted the review work throughout the meeting in a scientific, rigorous and impartial manner.
During the review, the expert panel and all participating parties strictly complied with industrial standards, project bidding documents and technical specifications, and thoroughly examined the complete set of design drawings, equipment calculation sheets and all supporting technical documents of the 6000t/h bucket wheel stacker-reclaimer, ship loader and belt conveyor. Participants conducted in-depth discussions on key aspects such as equipment design concepts, structural performance, operational stability, safety protection systems and working condition adaptability, and engaged in full exchanges and inquiries over technical details and optimization directions.
After comprehensive review and demonstration, the expert panel and all participating organizations reached a unanimous conclusion: the overall design schemes of the reviewed 6000t/h bucket wheel stacker-reclaimer, ship loader and belt conveyor are scientifically sound with a mature and complete technical system. The equipment boasts excellent operational stability and safety reliability, fully adapting to the complex working conditions of the project, including long-span cantilever operation, heavy-load work, continuous production and all-weather service. All core technical parameters and performance indicators of the equipment fully meet the requirements specified in the project bidding documents and technical specifications, and the equipment has successfully passed the expert review.
The successful convening of this review meeting serves as an authoritative inspection of the technical schemes for the project’s core equipment, and fully demonstrates the R&D & design capabilities as well as intelligent manufacturing strength of Jiangsu Zhongkuang Heavy Equipment Co., Ltd. in high-end heavy equipment. Targeting the complex and harsh operating conditions of the overseas project in Guinea, Jiangsu Zhongkuang leverages its rich experience in heavy equipment R&D, solid technical accumulation and comprehensive design system to accurately tackle technical challenges arising from heavy-load, continuous and all-weather operation. The complete conveying equipment solution developed by the company integrates safety, stability and practicality, with all core technical indicators fully complying with the project’s high construction standards.
The approval of this review effectively eliminates technical risks in equipment design, and consolidates the foundation for equipment manufacturing, installation and subsequent operation and maintenance. It also fully verifies Jiangsu Zhongkuang’s R&D, manufacturing capacity and core competitiveness in the field of complete sets of large-scale industrial and mining equipment for overseas projects. This will guarantee the efficient advancement, standardized construction and high-quality implementation of SPIC Guinea Alumina Development Project, and support the steady commissioning and efficient operation of this key overseas alumina project.
