Modern computerization facilitates data-gathering from forest machines, and offers new opportunities to develop models for predicting productivity in forest harvest operations. In this study, we analyze the productivity of cut-to-length harvesting and forwarding in thinning and final felling using a routinely recorded follow-up dataset. The data originate from over 700 machines that, over a 3-year…

Since the late nineteenth century when high-cost equipment was introduced into forestry there has been a need to calculate the cost of this equipment in more detail with respect to, for example, cost of ownership, cost per hour of production, and cost per production unit. Machine cost calculations have been made using various standard economic…
Abstract High harvesting costs are the main problems in first thinnings. Machines with lower operating costs could be one potential solution for cost-efficient first thinnings. The research investigated the productivity of the four most widely used small harvesters, i.e. thinning harvesters, and their cutting costs. Data were also collected on the productivity relationships between working…
Abstract Productivity levels between harvester operators have been noted to vary significantly, by up to 40% in similar stands. It is believed that differences originate from the operators cutting techniques, motoric skills, planning of work, experience, felling order of removable trees, decision processes at the working location, machine properties and the surrounding environment. The objective…
Abstract Time and motion studies have been and still are frequently used to describe, understand, and improve forest operations. Delays are recognized as being one of the major factors that limit productivity in most operations and are, therefore, an integral part of most time studies. But, delay events are erratic in both occurrence and magnitude…
