an articulated work device formed by a plurality of driven members including a boom having a proximal end rotatably coupled to an upper swing structure, an arm having one end rotatably coupled to a distal end of the boom, and a work tool rotatably coupled to another end of the arm;

a plurality of hydraulic actuators including a boom cylinder that drives the boom on a basis of an operation signal, an arm cylinder that drives the arm on a basis of an operation signal, and a work tool cylinder that drives the work tool on a basis of an operation signal;

a plurality of hydraulic pumps that deliver hydraulic fluid for driving the plurality of hydraulic actuators;

operation devices that output an operation signal for operating a hydraulic actuator desired by an operator among the plurality of hydraulic actuators;

a plurality of flow control valves that are arranged so as to respectively correspond to the plurality of hydraulic actuators, and that control directions and flow rates of the hydraulic fluid supplied from the hydraulic pumps to the plurality of hydraulic actuators on a basis of the operation signals from the operation devices; and

a controller configured to output a control signal that controls the flow control valve corresponding to at least one of the plurality of hydraulic actuators such that the work device operates within a region on and above a target surface set for a work target of the work device, or perform region limiting control that corrects the control signal output to control the flow control valve corresponding to at least one of the plurality of hydraulic actuators from the operation devices, wherein

the controller is configured to compute a first estimated velocity of the arm cylinder used for the region limiting control on a basis of a first condition defining, in advance, a relation between an operation amount of the operation device corresponding to the arm cylinder and the first estimated velocity of the arm cylinder when an operation amount of the operation device corresponding to the boom cylinder is equal to or smaller than the operation amount of the operation device corresponding to the arm cylinder, and

the controller is configured to compute a second estimated velocity of the arm cylinder used for the region limiting control as a velocity higher than the first estimated velocity of the arm cylinder computed on the basis of the first condition when the operation amount of the operation device corresponding to the boom cylinder is larger than the operation amount of the operation device corresponding to the arm cylinder.
