Hitachi was an innovator in its home country of Japan. In 1949, Hitachi developed the Hitachi U05, the first cable-operated power shovel made entirely from Japanese technology. Hitachi Construction Machinery (HCM) was established in 1970, when Hitachi Ltd. separated its construction machinery division from its other businesses.
Hitachi is still an innovator in the construction industry, producing a wide range of equipment, including wheel loaders, artic dump trucks, excavators and more.
