The Hitachi ZX345USLC-7 (ZX345-7) excavator turned many heads at the Civil Contractors Federation Heavy Equipment & Machinery Show in Brisbane, offering a remark-able combination of compact design and powerful performance.

Hitachi Construction Machinery Australia's latest innovative model in the medium-sized excavator market continues to enhance productivity on demanding job sites.

The ZX345-7 meets the growing need for ultra-short tail swing machines, excelling in tight, challenging environments while maintaining the power, precision and performance that operators expect from Hitachi.

A standout feature of the 35-tonne machine is its ultra-short tail swing radius of under 2.1 metres, making it particularly well-suited to civil construction projects where space is limited, including roadsides, urban construction sites and retaining wall installations.
