Hitachi takes control

Anyone that is active on social media will know that Hitachi has recently been posting some cryptic messages that seem to hint at a new development in which machine control takes centre stage. We can exclusively reveal that the new development is a new series of mid-range excavators and that machine operation is very much to the fore. At the time of recording, we haven't even seen a photo of the new machines; and they're not being shown at ConExpo. However, product specialist Wilbert Blom gave s the low-down on the new machines ahead of their introduction.
