Abstract
A work machine includes a vehicle body, a work implement movably connected to the vehicle body, a plurality of actuators that are connected to the work implement and change an orientation of the work implement with respect to the vehicle body, an operating device that is operable to change the orientation of the work implement, a sensor that detects the orientation of the work implement, and a controller. The controller acquires a current orientation of the work implement, determines a target orientation of the work implement corresponding to an operation of the operating device, determines respective target stroke lengths of the plurality of actuators so that the work implement assumes the target orientation from the current orientation with a combination of stroke motions of the plurality of actuators, and controls the plurality of actuators based on the target stroke lengths.
