The environmentally friendly 10-wheeled forwarder concept meets the modern challenges of effectiveness and respecting the environment. The objective of the "Beating the challenge of peat land timber harvesting using conventional machines" project was to create a simple and reliable forest machine that leaps to a whole new level of environmental friendliness by introducing soft terrains with poor carrying capacity into the sphere of the forest economy.
The purpose of the co-operation project between Ponsse Oyj, Metsähallitus and Metla was to look for practical solutions that can be used to increase timber harvesting on peat soil when the soil is not frozen using machinery that is in general use. The development issues included:
1) equipping forest machines for soft soil,
2) adapting working with a machine to soils with poor carrying capacity,
3) developing on the design, and
4) improving the preconditions of wood harvesting companies.
The project included extensive testing in the terrain to compare the various track solutions. The track models to be tested were manufactured by Metsätyö Oy.

Having achieved enormous popularity, the BuffaloDual harwarder now welcomes a powerful little brother. The brilliant technical solutions of the BuffaloDual are now combined with the Wisent's lightness and agility in one power package: the WisentDual.
A rugged machine for final fellings - a lightweight machine for thinnings. Sound familiar? What if one could improve performance even more and still operate even more flexibly in the ever-changing conditions which face the contractor?
With the help of the WisentDual, you can substantially improve the return from less productive harvest sites, because you will achieve significant savings in capital, transport, maintenance and wear. The WisentDual is very suitable for harvesting small areas or stands with small-diameter trees. This frees the heavier machinery to work in more lucrative harvesting areas....

|
The Dual is both a harvester and a forwarder. Work is efficient and flexible because the transformation from forwarder to harvester or vice versa is quick: it takes less than ten minutes! Felling and driving can be planned and put into effect flexibly, taking into consideration the locations and distances between marked stands, the diameter and volume of the standing timber to be felled, and the workload of the contractor's other machines or machine teams. In this way, you can optimise the efficient use of machine capacity.
The interchangeable harvester head and grapple allow versatile use of the machines. The P0NSSE Dual is also excellent as a dedicated harvester or forwarder in a harvest machine team, helping you easily circumvent problems caused by overheated machines.

The Gremo forwarder 1350VT is equipped with a continously working and variable speed hydrostatic transmission called Gre- VT (Grevete). Gre- VT is another leap forward in technology that Gremo has been the first to introduce on forestry machines. The unique transmission cuts the working cycles and by that increases performance and profibility. The hydrostat pump drives two hydrostat motors mechanically connected to the cardan shaft via a gearbox.
The driver does not have to shift gear, but can select the speed range, either 0-11.8 km/h or 0-25 km/h. Driving position 1 has always both motors engaged. This position is selected, if the speed should not exceed 11.8 km/h. In driving position 2 both hydrostat motors are still engaged from start, but the larger of those two is disengaged automatically as soon as the speed exceeds 11.8 km/h. Engaging and disengaging are controlled by GreControl, a software developed by Gremo.
The unique feature with this system is the fact that the Gremo 1350VT is able to run at 0-25 km/h without being interrupted by gear shift and with maximum pulling force. Thus it is possible to start with maximum pulling force even in driving position 2 The pulling force amounts to fully 18.4 kN, and the system submits higher pulling force across the speed range.

The Buffalo is equipped with durable bogie axles and wide balloon tyres. Its weight distribution across eight tyres lowers the ground pressure and reduces ground damage. This, combined with the Buffalo's excellent manoeuvrability, also makes it a good choice for thinning sites.
The Buffalo's strong K90 loader provides massive force for loading. The construction of the K90 loader is based on technical solutions which have proven reliable through the years. Its 10 metre reach and seamless control increase the machine's productivity. The loader's strength is especially suitable for work on sloping terrain and for processing large trunks.
In the design of the Buffalo, particular attention has been paid to the cooling and filtering of the hydraulic oil. A dedicated pump provides a continuous cooling and filtering cycle for the hydraulic oil, regardless of machine movements. Thanks to this system, the oil is kept extremely clean and the temperature remains optimal under all conditions. Minimising pressure loss throughout the system lowers fuel consumption even more.

Tigercat builds four innovative forwarder models ranging incapacity from 12-20 tonne capacity. The 20 tonne 1075 is the industry's highest capacity forwarder. All Tigercat forwarders are designed and built for extreme duty applications.
Tigercat forwarders offer a number of advantages over competing machines, including tough construction, excellent cooling capacity and better stability when traveling and loading.
With Tigercat's unique centre section design, the 1065 and 1075 models do not require oscillation locks. All Tigercat forwarders are extremely stable and this allows the operator to reach out and pick up a load of logs while the machine in still in motion. This contributes to significant productivity gains. Other forwarder brands must have the oscillation lock in place in order to reach out over the side of the machine. When the oscillation lock is engaged the machine cannot travel and productivity decreases.
