The UW180S Felling Grapple

The UW180S harvester head is specifically designed to fit all Usewood small forestry machines. It has a fast and reliable saw unit which is designed to cut stems up to 22 cm in diameter. The UW180S Felling Grapple has a high quality delimbing system, resulting in excellent delimbed timber. Energy- and firewood made by the UW180S Felling Grapple dries well because the feed rollers break the bark off the trunk. As an option, the UW180S Felling Grapple can also be equipped with a length and volume measurement system.

With small harvesters, efficiency is the key aspect. For a small machine to effectively cut and delimb trees, the power of the machine needs to be focused on the work as precisely as possible. The UW180S harvester head works as a part of the control system of the machine using it. The power and speed of the feeding wheels is adjusted automatically to delimb the trees at the optimal power, increasing speed in trees with small branches and increasing power in trees with big branches. This makes it possible to harvest relatively big trees at a low power and with a small fuel consumption. The UW180S is not just one harvester head among others. It’s part of the machine using it.

UW50 brushwood cutter

Effective operation in young forests requires a lot from both the driver and the machine. The plants are close to each other and brushwood surrounds them. Every unintentional movement can cause damage to the plants. That is why it is important to have the right tools for young forest management. The Usewood Forest Master is a suitable machine for brushwood cutting thanks to it’s strong and accurate crane and top class control system.

The UW50 brushwood cutter is an ideal tool for brushwood cutting when the brushwood is 30 mm in diameter or smaller. It’s blade, 80 cm in diameter, blade can cut’s brushwood from all directions. The symmetrical shape make’s it easy to operate, without the need for a rotator. Less controllable movements mean easier driving and more robustness. The driving is not as exhausting even during long working days.

Robust design

The UW50’s blade is made from strong, durable steel which, compared to a bush saw, doesn’t get dull as easily when coming into contact with sand or other soil. It also has plastic-covered fingers to protect the blade from bigger rocks.

“Slow is smooth, smooth is fast” The UW50 brushwood cutter cuts brushwood smoothly, without causing vibrations into the crane or the base machine. This preserves the machine and makes the driving much more accurate. Brushwood can be cut right next out from beside the desirable plants, just like with a bush saw.
