Earlier this year, we traveled to Japan to visit Hitachi Construction Machinery (HCM) to see how they build medium and mining-class excavators.
While that was FANTASTIC, I also asked if we could visit a customer. They had one in mind at a quarry north of Tokyo. Great—I expected a relatively big machine.
But when they told me it was a Hitachi 5600, I thought they were joking... But they weren't!
