The right excavator for every application

As a pioneer in producing hydraulic excavators, we produce the widest range in the world – from one-tonne Zaxis minis to 800-tonne EX ultra-large mining machines. Hitachi excavators benefit from decades of manufacturing experience, incorporates leading technology, and is renowned for exceptional reliability.

Mini Excavators

User-friendliness is at the heart of every Hitachi mini excavator. The one- to four-tonnes models are easy to transport by trailer and a suitable towing vehicle. Short-tail swing versions make light work of difficult jobs in confined spaces, and convenient maintenance features make them quick to clean and inspect. With fast cycle times and efficient hydraulics, our mini excavators make a big impression on the job site. The five- to six-tonne models can be used on more demanding sites, when space is limited. All models have been updated to  comply with the latest harmonised standards for machinery and provide an even higher level of comfort and safety for operators. 

Medium Excavators

You can find our seven- to 50-tonne medium excavators working on all kinds of job sites. The standard models are commonly used on earthmoving and general construction projects, while larger machines can be used for quarrying.

Large Excavators

We work hard to provide you with a range of large excavators that work hard too. Our Zaxis 50- to 87-tonne machines can operate for 24 hours a day in the most challenging environments, for earthmoving, construction, mining and quarrying operations.

Wheeled Excavators

If you have a fleet of construction equipment, a Hitachi wheeled excavator will be a valuable addition. If you’re self-employed or run an SME, then a Hitachi wheeled excavator might be the only machine you need.
