Ongoing projects

A joint project for a better tomorrow

Centipede project

A new type of forest machine is currently driving around the forests of Sweden. It combines a low-impact approach, increased productivity and an improved operator environment and is the result of a major cooperative project by eight Swedish forestry companies and Komatsu Forest.

Towards the future of forestry

The Cluster of Forest Technology

Skogstekniska Klustret (The Cluster of Forest Technology) is an economic association with 10 member companies that together employ over 1,100 people. The heart of the work is the innovation system, where the member companies are connected with researchers, students, start-ups, forest companies and funders - thets helps to run projects that develop forestry.

For sustainable agriculture and forestry

AGRARSENSE project

A new project takes agricultural and forestry related productivity to the next level. The consortium will develop European state-of-the-art technologies in electronic components and systems for future needs, building European resilience in critical sectors and strongly contribute to sustainability targets and climate change mitigation.

Collaboration to develop reliable autonomous systems

XSCAVE

Together with ten European universities and companies, including Umeå University, Komatsu Forest are participating in an EU project where computational science meets the latest AI technology. The goal is to combine methods in computational physics with artificial intelligence, AI, to create safe and efficient AI-driven machines that minimize the risk of harming people or the environment.
