Although the trucks were produced in the Chattanooga plant in the mid-2000s, production shifted to the company’s plant in Japan in 2009, where it remained until now. The 473-horsepower HM400-5 trucks are used primarily in the construction, mining, and quarry industries to move material across challenging terrain. In addition to the HM400-5 trucks, the plant produces midsize hydraulic excavators and intelligent excavators. Approximately 525 people are employed at the Chattanooga campus.
