Seilkran-Simulation 4.0
Based on the forest digital twin, timber harvesting with a cable crane can be simulated. Working times, machine hours and the timber assortments produced are added up and displayed graphically. The results can be used to compare different variants of line layout and intervention strength and thus determine an optimum.

Timber harvesting with cable crane system

Timber harvesting with a cable crane method is simulated and all work steps and the harvested timber assortments are totaled so that the results of the simulation can improve the executed felling.
