In this second edition of Logging-on, Ponsse brings news of their move into electric forest machines with the Ponsse EV1 forwarder. Ponsse have partnered with Epec, who already have significant experience in components for electric vehicles. John Deere have made upgrades on their knuckleboom loaders, which have focussed on improved operator visibility from the cab. Case have had their innovative oils flowing with the production of the first-of-its-kind Minotaur DL550 compact dozer loader. Finally, we look at new tracked carriers from Prinoth and FAE that can carry mulching or grinding heads and access difficult terrain using remote controlled operation.
