  • Patent number: 11708682
    Abstract: A hydraulic excavator includes a computer-aided construction controller for performing machine control to operate a front work implement based on detected results from posture sensors and predetermined conditions. The computer-aided construction controller has a calibration posture storing section that stores at least one predetermined calibration posture of the front work implement for calibrating the posture sensors, and a calibration posture controlling section that carries out the machine control to inactivate the hydraulic actuators if detection target values of the posture sensors in the calibration posture and the detected results from the posture sensors are equal to each other. The time required for calibration can thus be shortened by increasing the operability for adjusting a calibration posture.
