Within a state<br />
forest management<br />
programme, Germany<br />
has conducted a second count<br />
showing that the nation’s forests are<br />
enormous and growing.<br />
Wood is a renewable energy<br />
resource, meaning it can be used<br />
forever for a wide range of different<br />
applications without depleting the<br />
earth. Because of its high sustainability<br />
and profitability, fuel wood has<br />
become a raw material largely in<br />
use and handled by a large number<br />
of private small/medium size private<br />
contractors. For this reason efficient<br />
and versatile loader/grapples technologies<br />
are a very important sales<br />
argument.<br />
Time-saving and efficient are mandatory<br />
qualities of all heavy-duty<br />
equipment. Attaching a log grapple<br />
for handling your timber without<br />
ever getting off your tractor is an<br />
optimal work method.<br />
successful use of timer-harvesting<br />
and logging vehicles requires particular<br />
on-site routes appropriate for<br />
use of tractors and off-road forest<br />
machines.<br />
heavy-duty equipment by <strong>BGU</strong>maschinen<br />
are designed by a modular<br />
construction concept that makes<br />
them suitable for a large number<br />
of different possible applications in<br />
order for farming and logging contractors<br />
to be able to take the most<br />
out of their investment and fully<br />
exploit the technical potentialities of<br />
our machines.<br />
We strongly focus on standard fittings<br />
and accessories for all our<br />
equipment in order to make it easily<br />
and efficiently retrofitted to any<br />
existing feeding/conveying system<br />
or equipment. This is a key-feature<br />
for effective and smooth onsite<br />
operation.<br />
