Optimizing Your Open-Pit Extraction Strategy
In mining, every second of cycle time counts. Hitachi-Landcros mining excavators are built with a single goal: maximizing your output. We analyze your geological conditions and target production to recommend the ideal EX-Series configuration, ensuring a perfect synergy between breakout force and fuel efficiency.
The EX-7 series features electronic cylinder pumps and an optimized hydraulic system (HIOS-VI) that reduces fuel consumption by up to 10% without sacrificing breakout force, directly lowering your operational Opex.
Our ultra-class shovels are built with a rigid box-section design and S690QL high-strength steel, specifically engineered to withstand the abrasive conditions of surface mining. This ensures a service life exceeding 100,000 hours, outperforming competitors in the most demanding open-pit environments.
Safety is paramount. Hitachi-Landcros excavators feature the Aerial Angle™ 360° vision system, pressurized cabs for dust protection, and escape chutes for emergency egress, meeting all international MSHA/ISO safety standards.
We optimize the "Pass-Match" between our shovels and haulers. For example, an EX2600 is perfectly balanced to fill a 100-ton rigid truck in 4 to 5 passes, ensuring maximum fleet synchronization.
Integrated Mining Intelligence for surface mining
Hitachi-Landcros technology transforms data into production because A surface mining operation is a complex ecosystem where every machine must be perfectly synchronized. We provide real-time monitoring and certified support to guarantee the highest availability on the market.
A mining excavator is only as productive as the fleet it supports. We configure full-cycle solutions to ensure your operations never stop.
Optimized Hauling Cycles
Couple your EX-Series shovel with our [Rigid Dump Trucks] for a perfectly synchronized loading process and reduced fuel burn per ton.
Hybrid Energy for Mines
Support your mining camp and infrastructures with our [BESS Energy Storage], reducing diesel dependency and optimizing your site's carbon footprint.
