EACON Mining Technology delivers the world's most widely deployed autonomous haulage system. Founded in China in 2018, EACON provides turnkey solutions that optimise surface mining operations through scalable, mixed-fleet autonomy. Our flagship platform, ORCASTRA®, is fully OEM-agnostic and compatible with trucks of any brand, new or existing.

With vehicle-level autonomy, 360-degree perception, and real-time optimised dispatching, we help mines enhance safety, improve productivity, and accelerate their path to net zero. EACON also brings deep expertise in emission-reducing technologies, seeking to bring offerings of hybrid-electric, battery-electric, and retrofit autonomy options to the Australian market to support a safer, greener future for mining.

Today, EACON operates one of the largest autonomous haulage fleets in the world, deployed across dozens of projects spanning coal, metal, and aggregate mining. In July 2026, EACON Group listed on the Main Board of the Hong Kong Stock Exchange, a milestone that reflects both our track record and our ambition to become the world's leading autonomous haulage provider.
