The grand opening of the ROBLEX joint venture took place today in Moscow.
The project combines the industrial potential of OJSC "BELAZ", the investment capabilities of RT-Business Development LLC (State Corporation "Rostec"), and the cutting-edge developments of InDev Solutions IT company. This credible alliance ensures a comprehensive approach to solving problems of varying complexity.
The key goal of ROBLEX is to integrate comprehensive solutions for hydrogen-powered and autonomous mining dump trucks into the Russian mining industry. These technologies are aimed at significantly reducing operating costs, minimizing carbon footprints, and increasing open-pit mine safety.
ROBLEX will cover a wide range of areas, providing full support for innovative solutions:
• Introducing hydrogen-powered and autonomous mining dump trucks to the Russian market;
• Creating the necessary infrastructure;
• Adapting and supporting IT solutions;
• Providing service support, including training, technical support, and software and hardware upgrades.
In the course of this collaboration, the Belarusian side will focus on manufacturing dump trucks and developing specialized software, while the Russian side will ensure the seamless integration of these innovative solutions into mining enterprises. These joint efforts are aimed at creating a unified platform that will promote the development and implementation of artificial intelligence, telemetry, and hydrogen energy technologies.
"The launch of ROBLEX is not just a new stage of cooperation, but a fundamental step toward the technological sovereignty of our countries. Today, we are combining the strength of Belarusian mechanical engineering and digital expertise with the investment potential of our Russian partners. Our shared goal is to offer the market not just equipment, but an intelligent ecosystem," Sergey Lesin, General Director of OJSC "BELAZ" emphasized. "The autonomous technologies and hydrogen energy we are implementing will be key to dramatically reducing costs and improving safety in the mining industry. I am confident that our joint work will lay the foundation for the sustainable development of the entire industry for decades to come."
"ROBLEX is a company with cutting-edge international technologies and enormous export potential. The project is expected to attract attention not only in the Russian market but also globally, offering not just an innovation, but a comprehensive product that combines breakthrough engineering with high commercial efficiency," Alexey Kukharev, General Director of RT-Business Development LLC noted.
According to Oleg Belyakov, General Director of InDev Solutions, the project features 100% locally developed code, which is critical for import independence. "This is precisely why our development is already in demand in the CIS countries: mining companies are seeking reliable, secure, and scalable solutions without being tied to Western vendors. Our joint venture with BELAZ and RT-Business Development allows us to address this need systemically – from software to infrastructure and service,” he said.
"By launching ROBLEX, we are creating a unique operator capable of offering the market ready-made solutions for the mines of the future – autonomous and with a minimal carbon footprint," Dmitry Sizemov, General Director of ROBLEX commented.
