Hitachi ended its decades-long joint excavator production venture with John Deere in February 2022. Since the dissolution, Hitachi Construction Machinery Americas Inc. has added 150 new employees.

When the agreement with John Deere ended, the company announced its intention to introduce new equipment to the markets that will have "cutting-edge technologies that increase efficiency and safety while lowering total cost of ownership." Those technologies include advanced hydraulic and safety systems, "internet of things" services and telematics.

ConExpo will be a chance to unveil multiple upgrades and new options for the Hitachi machines.

According to the company, the next-generation Dash-7 excavators and wheel loaders address customer needs with enhancements to core capabilities that optimize performance and reliability while reducing operating costs.
