Hitachi Construction Machinery, or HCM, manufactures and sells construction and mining machinery, and provides related services such as parts supply, rentals, and others. HCM was established in 1970 as a subsidiary of Hitachi, but its origins date back to 1949 when it introduced Japan's first mechanical excavator. The company's main products include hydraulic excavators for mining/construction, rigid dump trucks, and wheel loaders. As of August 2022, Hitachi is no longer the parent company of HCM, after selling 26% of its stake to HCJI Holdings, a joint venture between Itochu and Japan Industrial Partners. Currently, Hitachi has a 25.4% stake in Hitachi Construction Machinery as an equity-method affiliate. HCM is based in Tokyo, Japan.
