About Hitachi Construction Machinery
Hitachi Construction Machinery builds hydraulic excavators, wheel loaders, rigid dump trucks and other heavy equipment for construction and mining. The current company was established in 1970, while its construction-machinery lineage extends to Hitachi’s post-war excavator development and the start of mass production in 1950.
Automation spans remote-controlled excavators, autonomous haulage and the ZCORE system platform. The company is extending that work toward learned machine operation by combining onboard imagery, work instructions and operator control data. It remains a large production machinery company rather than a research-only robotics venture, reporting consolidated fiscal-2025 revenue of ¥1.4055 trillion and 25,288 employees as of March 2026.
