Tailor-made system solution for forestry skidder

Complete hydraulic and control system solution for an international customer. The machine continues to be further developed, efficiently via remote access and with on-site support when needed.

Tailor-made system solution for forestry skidder

A comprehensive system solution was implemented for a high-performance forestry skidder, integrating both hydraulic and control technologies. The goal was to meet all customer requirements within a flexible, expandable system concept. The project was developed in close coordination with the customer and our local subsidiary, from the initial enquiry through implementation to commissioning and field support.


Even after the project phase was completed, the machine continues to be further developed. New versions are individually adapted and efficiently commissioned via remote access.

The challenge

The customer placed high demands on functionality, operation and flexibility. This results in ongoing requirements for a control system that must integrate a wide range of functions:

  • Versatility
    The machine must offer numerous functions while remaining easy to operate.
  • Interaction between crane and drive
    During crane operation, higher engine speed is required while the drive must still be finely controllable.
  • International project structure
    Support had to be organised across national borders, including troubleshooting and remote upgrades.
  • Long-term collaboration
    The project is ongoing and continuously evolving to meet new customer needs.

The solution

Based on the requirements, a robust and adaptable system solution was developed, combining intelligent control and proven hydraulic components:

  • Intelligent control system
    Optimal coordination between crane control (PVG 100/32) and drive system for precise operation at variable speeds.
  • Flexible software architecture
    Easily configurable for individual operator preferences and future machine versions.
  • Rugged hardware
    Components selected specifically for harsh forestry conditions.
  • ModulDrive with wide conversion range
    Wide speed range without gear shifting.
  • Drive system with PCAC software
    Proven standard software from Danfoss, tailored with project-specific adaptations.

Value-added

With the new vehicle, the customer has a versatile and robust machine perfectly suited to forestry operations. The intelligent control system, responsive driving behavior, and modular expandability enhance both efficiency and user comfort in daily operation. The solution is future-proof and quickly adaptable to new requirements, making it a sustainable long-term investment.
