XUZHOU,China,Sept. 3,2018 -- XCMG,China's top construction machinery manufacturer,has delivered six pieces of equipment to a mining company in South Africa,marking another milestone for the brand's development in the African market.

The order included three XDA40 mining winches,one XE470D excavator,one GR2405 mining grader and one LW1200KN,the largest-tonnage loader model in China.
