The results of a study showed that bucking was faster, and that bucking splits were shorter.

All three units were equipped with multitree handling devices. The highest productivity was achieved by the unit equipped with a chainsaw.   Read press release   Read more in Resultat No. 14, 2009   Maria Iwarsson Wide 2010-01-19T11:06:36+01:00 http://www.skogforsk.se//templates/sf_NewsPage.aspx?id=28346&epslanguage=en Railway terminal boost efficiency of energy-wood haulage For long distance transportation of energy-wood rail haulage is a competitive alternative to road haulage. But it is important that the trains can be loaded and unloaded quickly at the terminals.   Read press release   Read more in Resultat No. 13, 2009 Johanna Enström 2010-01-19T11:11:27+01:00
