Improve safety and productivity by sharing data about people, machinery and construction environments in site. Hitachi Construction Machinery envisions a construction site that is capable of improving safety and productivity autonomously through the mutual exchange of data about people, machinery and construction environment.

Machinery and equipment operate 24 hours a day, 365 days a year at mining sites to supply the resources that support our daily lives. Hitachi Construction Machinery utilizes ICT and IoT technology to develop long-distance remote control and autonomous operation technology for ultra-large hydraulic excavators and to also promote the development of a dump truck Autonomous Haulage System to contribute to the achievement of autonomous operation for customers around the world to improve the productivity and safety of mining operations.

Hitachi Construction Machinery Group works on developing autonomous construction equipment that can work in collaborative safety with humans and ICT/IoT technology for improving safety and productivity at construction sites. One such project under development is an autonomous compaction system using vibratory roller for earthwork.

Construction machinery is used for high-load work in a variety of environments around the world. At Hitachi Construction Machinery, we have enabled quick and accurate evaluation in product development by integrating technologies for experimenting on prototypes of construction machinery with our simulation technology. We will promptly provide customers with products featuring improved safety, durability and other properties, and enhanced performance.
