will change this industry,” Roland
Sundén, President of Hiab, said.
“Forests will be the same as today
but the way logs are delivered
from the forest to the sawmills and
to other industries will definitely
change as automated solutions
and the use of big data develops
rapidly.”
“The first LogLift/Jonsered
forestry cranes were introduced
more than 55 years ago. Since
then we have developed and set
the market standards, first by
introducing the top seat, later the
cabins and now moving operations
to the truck cabin. We deliver the
best solutions for our customers’
needs, with a special focus on
safety, ergonomics, efficiency and
sustainability of their businesses.”

smooth and easy operation, as
well as precise control over crane
movements.
The 125Z incorporates
SmartBase for smooth handling,
stability and low weight, as well
as a Hose Protection Link to guard
against blows and sticking.
Visitors also experienced a
LogLift forestry crane equipped
with HiVision, which enables safe
and comfortable crane operation
inside the truck cabin. There are
four cameras on top of the forestry
crane that provide the operator
with a realistic 270 ° view. This
enables the crane operator to see
the working area and operate the
crane using Virtual Reality (VR)
goggles.
The first HiVision deliveries took
place at the beginning of this year
in Sweden and Germany and will
continue in Finland and Japan, for
example, with customers ranging
from operators to educational
institutions.

“The concentrated engagement
in this branch of industry has
deepened our knowledge about
its requirements and desired
solutions,” he said.
“The result is a complete
product range for biomass
production in the forest including
large chippers and flexibly
customizable screens.”
The chipping specialists
precisely reduce branches, log and
root timber and wooden residues
to wood chips, with the screens
separating the input material in up
to six fractions. The machines are
available for stationary or mobile
use; on wheels or on tracks.
Together with its Swedish sales
partner, OP-System, Doppstadt
showcased solution-oriented
procedures for biomass processing
in the timber and forestry industry
at Elmia.
The precision chippers DH 910
SA-B Super Panther, DH 812 LD and
DH 811, and a mobile combination
of the DW 3060 shredder and
compatible Selector on tracks were
shown in operation.
This combination performs two
recycling procedures in one single
process: it shreds waste wood,
green waste and mono-material
wood waste batches and then
screens it to the required sizes. The
mobile Doppstadt chippers take
in up to 90 cm-thick lumbers and
efficiently reduce log timber, tree
tops, shrubs and slabs to wood
chips between G 30 and G100 sizes.
Hiab presented a selection of
crane models under the leading
LogLift and Jonsered brands,
featuring some of its latest
innovations, such as the LogLift
