Work machine including a boom, an arm and a bucket, and for performing work including finishing and rough excavation of a flat surface or an inclined surface of a construction target

Abstract

The present disclosure provides a work machine capable of providing operation assistance matching an operator's intent in consideration of a rotating motion. A control device includes a storage device and a central processing device. The storage device has stored therein construction target information for a work device and determination criteria information for the work content of the work device based on the amount of operation of a rotating device. The central processing device, based on the position and attitude of the work device detected by a sensor, the amount of operation of the rotating device detected by an operation amount detection device, and the determination criteria information stored in the storage device, determines the work content of the work device, calculates a correction value for the construction target information based on the determined work content, and controls a drive device based on the construction target information and the correction value.
