Explore our elite selection of Shacman and Sinotruk HOWO tractor heads, tippers, and specialized heavy transporters direct from the factory line.
In the global infrastructure and logistics sector, heavy-duty trucks act as the true "Red Giants"—powerhouses that drive progress across mining sites, large-scale transport routes, and urban construction zones. Hongkai Automobile Trading Co., Ltd. has spent over two decades engineering, refurbishing, and distributing these vital assets to B2B clients worldwide.
Founded initially in the logistics and automotive hub of Deyang City, Sichuan Province, China, our company embarked on a long-term strategy targeting the domestic distribution and rigorous mechanical certification of major heavy brands. Recognizing the global demand for reliable, cost-efficient machinery, Hongkai expanded into international markets, successfully servicing operations in Africa, the Middle East, and Central Asian countries. Today, we stand as a premier builder and dealer, connecting clients with top-tier brands like Sinotruk HOWO and Shacman.
Our dual-core facilities—consisting of our modern 15,000 square meter office and logistics center in Shundi Auto Trade City, Deyang, alongside our massive 196,000 square meter advanced industrial manufacturing and truck testing center in Chengdu—allow us to execute bumper-to-bumper modifications, customized powertrain tunings, and emission standard compliance adaptations (Euro 3, Euro 4, Euro 5).
Operating on a global scale requires institutional-grade infrastructure. Hongkai has scaled its operations to ensure that every heavy tractor, dumper, and mixer passing through our pipeline meets international engineering safety certifications.
Our flagship assembly facility in Chengdu spans a massive 196,000 square meters. Housing specialized divisions for powertrain diagnostics, chassis reinforcement, cab refurbishing, and painting, this facility is run by an elite workforce of 186 employees. This integrated crew features experienced mechanical design engineers, certified electrical technicians, and specialized international service professionals.
In Deyang, the 15,000 square meter Shundi Auto Trade headquarters operates as our master distribution node. Our facilities include a custom vehicle testing loop and an extensive climate-controlled warehousing center capable of stocking hundreds of heavy trucks. This stock system ensures high-efficiency turnaround times, reducing logistics and delivery times for cross-border projects.
How we are integrating modern sensor arrays, high-efficiency diesel drivetrains, and green-energy concepts into the next generation of custom heavy transportation.
We are working directly with China’s premier powertrain manufacturers to implement customized electronic control unit (ECU) fuel mapping. By adjusting injection profiles for different altitudes, climates, and sulfur levels in fuel, we maximize the thermal efficiency of Shacman and HOWO engines, saving our global clients between 5% and 8% in fuel consumption.
Our Chengdu engineering center specializes in custom conversions between emission standards. Depending on local laws in Central Asia or Sub-Saharan Africa, we configure exhaust scrubbers and SCR catalyst blocks to operate optimally on Euro 3, Euro 4, or Euro 5 standards, ensuring zero-regulatory friction for import.
Future fleet procurement programs include optional smart hardware integrations. We install onboard computers supporting real-time GPS fleet tracking, load sensors, and predictive diagnostic alerts. Operators monitor fleet metrics from unified dashboards, reducing unscheduled repairs.
No single truck configuration fits every job site. We engineer and specify our line of HOWO dump trucks, Shacman tractors, and multi-axle tippers to meet the demanding parameters of these key industrial applications.
Operating under dusty, high-vibration conditions requires reinforced high-tensile steel cargo boxes and specialized double-reduction axles. Our custom-configured Shacman F3000 8X4 and 6X4 dump trucks offer payloads up to 60 tons. They utilize multi-leaf spring suspensions, reinforced chassis, and oil-bath air pre-cleaners to protect the engine in extreme environments.
For urban infrastructure projects, manoeuvrability, chassis stability, and clean hydraulics are key. We supply customized HOWO TX and Shacman 10/12-wheel tippers featuring advanced dual-cylinder hydraulic lifting mechanisms. This system guarantees fast tipping times and prevents rollover accidents on uneven ground.
For fuel distribution and inter-state shipping, operators choose the Sinotruk HOWO NX 371HP to 420HP tractor heads. These vehicles are designed to pull fuel tankers and heavy flatbed trailers. We adjust the cabin layout (offering comfortable sleeper cabs for long trips) and optimize the driveline with gearboxes (like HW19710) to keep fuel consumption low on flat highway runs.
China's manufacturing sector has evolved into a global leader in industrial automation and supply chain resilience. At our Chengdu heavy truck factory, we leverage these advantages to provide high-quality trucks at competitive price points.
Our modernization line employs automated welding jigs, computerized chassis diagnostics, and electro-static painting rooms. Because we source original OEM parts directly from nearby hubs—like Shacman's main components and Sinotruk's engine foundries—we avoid long supply chain delays.
By avoiding third-party component sourcing, we pass the savings directly to you. This enables us to offer competitive quotes on high-demand configurations, including used and refurbished HOWO sand tractors and Shacman tippers, without compromising on quality or mechanical certification.
Our evolution from a regional domestic trader into a major global dealer and custom builder of heavy machinery.
Entered the field of truck sales, accumulating frontline practical experience and defining the demand profiles of heavy-duty truck operators.
Established cooperative partnership sales systems, pioneering integrated B2B lease-to-own programs and maintenance operations across South China.
Independently registered Hongkai Automobile Trade. Shifted focus toward high-end heavy machinery sales and set up our initial design and refurbishment system.
Constructed our landmark 20,000 square meter Hongkai Auto Trade City, cementing dealership ties with Sinotruk, Shacman, Jiefang, and Dongfeng.
Formed our dedicated transport fleet of 100+ vehicles, enabling delivery across South China logistics nodes within 48 hours.
Launched a global expansion program, setting up dedicated export support, online consultation pipelines, and offline distribution partnerships in Africa and Central Asia.
Purchasing heavy machinery across international borders requires a clear process. Below is the workflow we use to transition custom truck specifications from the factory line directly to your port of discharge.
Clients choose their chassis types (6x4, 8x4, 4x2) and select powertrain requirements, engine horsepower (371HP, 380HP, 420HP), emission configurations, and drive sides (Left-Hand Drive/Right-Hand Drive).
Approved orders move to our Chengdu facility for refurbishing. Here, technicians complete a 100-point inspection check covering engine compression, hydraulic lift pressure, gearbox synchronization, and chassis structural integrity.
We manage international customs paperwork and arrange transport via Roll-on/Roll-off (Ro-Ro) vessels, flat rack containers, or bulk ocean freight to protect your equipment during transit.
Our customer-first service culture is built on four core pillars: Integrity, Professionalism, Innovation, and Win-Win outcomes.
With 20 years of operational experience, we understand global trucking rules and fuel challenges. All engineers in our Chengdu testing center hold verified mechanical safety certificates, ensuring that every vehicle we deliver meets high performance standards.
We adapt every order to your specific operating conditions. Whether that means installing heavy-duty double-layer steel frames for mining dumpers, adjusting cooling radiators for high-heat desert environments, or customizing trailer connections, we adapt the truck to the job.
We support our clients long after their purchase is delivered. Through our 7×24-hour service channels, our engineering and spare parts teams assist clients with remote diagnostics, component sourcing, and maintenance questions to minimize fleet downtime.
We regularly host international buyers at our offices and testing centers, helping B2B procurement managers inspect their fleets in person before shipment.
Answers to key questions from fleet managers regarding refurbishing standards, custom orders, shipment timelines, and global import compliance.
