Product catalog summary
Introduction
This document discusses the conversion of forwarders into combi machines, highlighting the benefits and technical specifications of such machinery in the forestry sector.
Benefits of Combi Machines
  • Increased productivity by using one machine for multiple tasks from tree stump to roadside.
  • Cost-effective for small harvesting areas, reducing capital and maintenance costs compared to traditional chains.
  • Versatile operations suitable for small sites with high road transfer costs.
  • Capability to convert both new and old base machines into combi machines.
Base Machine Requirements
  • For 12-ton machines: 100 cm3 variable volume pump, minimum crane lifting capacity of 550 kg, safety glass windows.
  • For 15-ton machines: 130 cm3 variable volume pump, minimum crane lifting capacity of 750 kg, safety glass windows.
Head Alternatives and Features
  • Nisula 425C: Multi-purpose harvester head with grapple arms for efficient timber handling and sorting.
  • NCU3 Control System: Adjusts grip force, increases feeding capacity by 20%, and offers improved delimbing efficiency.
  • NCU3X: Features a 12.1” touch screen, value and quality scaling, and advanced algorithms for production maximization.
Technical Specifications
  • Nisula 500H/C and 425H/C: Detailed specifications including weight, delimbing diameter, operating pressure, and oil consumption.
  • Accessories: Stump treatment facility, color marking, saw control, and automatic chain adjustment.
Conversion and Modification
  • Combi machines can perform both work phases without equipment changes.
  • Forwarders can be equipped with separate harvester heads and timber grapples.
  • Modifications are tailored to customer needs, including crane adjustments and load space modifications.
Conclusion
Nisula offers versatile solutions for efficient logging operations, with advanced control systems and adaptable machinery suitable for various forestry needs.

The Future of efficient logging-2

Benefits of a combi machine • Increases the productivity of the base machine • One machine can be used to provide harvesting services from the tree stump to the roadside • Harvesting areas / cubic volumes that are too small for a harvesting chain can offer full-time use for a combi machine • Less risky Less capital tied to machinery than in a traditional chain • Smaller transportation and maintenance costs compared with a chain • More diversified operations • Highly competitive at small sites where the impact of road transfer costs on the unit costs in harvesting are highest • Possibility to...

More features to enhance harvesting operations Nisula 425C is a multi-purpose harvester head equipped with grapple arms that make handling and sorting timber effortless. The NCU3 control system adjusts the grip force of the grapple arms to the tree stem being handled, enabling a firm grip of the stem during felling, feeding and moving operations. In combined use, the separate grapple arms also allow loading without changing the head. When larger and heavier trees are felled and moved, the grapple arms apply a strong grip on the stem. When feeding starts, the grip force is reduced to minimise...

NISULA FOREST OY Korjaamokuja 3 35600 Halli, Finland www.nisulaforest.com facebook.com/nisulaforest DOWNLOAD NISULA APPS NOW alternative 1 Combi machine in which both the work phases can be Nisula offers two head alternatives for combi machines that can perform both the work phases in one go. Depending on the crane capacity, the 425C multi-purpose head suits 12-ton and heavier base machines. The 425C head is ideal for first and second thinnings and the 500C multi-purpose head for more extensive thinning operations. Depending on the crane capacity, 500C suits 15-ton or heavier base machines. The...
