Abstract:
A load value W, which is a weight of a transportation target carried by a front work implement 12, is calculated based on a work load of a boom cylinder 16 of the front work implement 12, and on posture information which is information associated with a posture of the front work implement 12. A load threshold T used for determining whether to recalibrate a load measuring system is changed in accordance with a posture index value which is an index associated with the posture of the front work implement 12 and is obtained based on the posture information. Whether to recalibrate the load measuring system is determined based on the load value W and the load threshold T. A determination result is displayed on a display screen 30 to notify an operator of the determination result. In this manner, deterioration of measuring accuracy is more appropriately detectable regardless of variations of a posture of a front work implement of a work machine.
