”When you have a stable forwarder, you become more efficient”

March 15, 2020

A stable forwarder does not only mean a better work environment with less strain on the operator, it’s also of great importance to achieve good productivity. To forest machine contractor Patrik Jonsson, at J Jonssons Skogs AB, the greatest benefits lie in more efficient crane operations and a higher transport speed.
– I have had this Komatsu 895 since May 2019, and it is the most stable forest machine I have operated, says Patrik Jonsson.

MaxiVision is a completely new digital tool that helps the forest machine operator to visualise the state and conditions of the forest. Different map views provide the operator with data about ground conditions and the rest of the team’s production, making it possible to plan the work as efficiently as possible and with minimal forest impact. Since everything is cloudbased, updates occur in real time and any changes are immediately seen onscreen in the cab.
