First, a feller cuts trees and lays them down on the ground. Then, a skidder pulls those trees to bring them to the road where the branches will be removed by a delimber. The skidders ride on trails where they must make many round trips. info@heavymachineryinfo.com (Article Admin) Wed, 21 Feb 2007 00:00:00 -0500 http://www.heavymachineryinfo.com/articles/476/1/Mini-Skidder/Mini-Skidder.html The idea behind building a mini-skidder stems from the fact that the conventional forestry machinery causes significant damage to forest soils and requires wide forest roads. Also, the prohibitive cost of conventional machinery makes it inaccessible to private woodlot owners and its size makes it inappropriate for selective cutting operations. info@heavymachineryinfo.com (Article Admin) Wed, 21 Feb 2007 00:00:00 -0500 http://www.heavymachineryinfo.com/articles/356/1/Increasing-Safety-and-Productivity-of-Forestry-Workers-Through-Engineering/Increasing-Safety-and-Productivity-of-Forestry-Workers-Through-Engineering.html Over the course of the past thirty years, there has been a dramatic change in the way that commercial harvesting operations are performed. info@heavymachineryinfo.com (Article Admin) Mon, 12 Feb 2007 00:00:00 -0500 http://www.heavymachineryinfo.com/articles/285/1/Tigercat-forestry-and-logging-equipment-skidders/Tigercat-forestry-and-logging-equipment-skidders.html The most innovative characteristic of Tigercat skidders is the revolutionary hydrostatic drive.

Morgan Forestry Products, Trans Gesco, and Tigercat all now produce modern skidders with innovations and technological advancements that have the environment, as well as productivity in mind. A real standout in this developing skidder market is the Morgan Skidder developed by Int.Silvatech Industries in Vancouver, British Columbia. After nine years of research and development, Int. Silvatech is now commercially producing the first fully hydrostatic log skidder. info@heavymachineryinfo.com (Article Admin) Fri, 01 Oct 2004 00:00:00 -0400
