How and why to choose a differen kind of Risutec machine

The choice of equipment is often challenging. Risutec has several products that overlap and I'll open up the main product groups here, hopefully this will help you understand why we make such a wide range of products.

 

FOREST BUILDERS:

A. Excavator mounted planting equipment
They only shape the point where the plant is placed, so the environmental impact is low. Easily portable and interchangeable with other tools such as a bucket. Several different models depending on the type of cultivation, type of seedling and size of the planter.

B. Harvester-mounted planting equipment
With the advantage of a large reach, the main job is just to plant. Water and fertiliser can be added as in the digging machine. Another advantage is the comfort of the wheeled base. 

C. Tractor-mounted planter
Inexpensive and efficient. Easy to move, pesticides and fertilizers can be added. Requires a flat and rock-free surface. 

D. Forwarder-mounted planting equipment - Forest Maker
A device for large and relatively flat areas. Low rockiness and good road access are also a requirement. For very large surface areas, pesticides, water and water gel can be added, as well as a variety of tillage equipment.

E. Soil preparation heads for excavators
Digging and soil cultivation attachments are available for both northern conditions and for land preparation of eucalyptus and other southern species.

F. Forwarder-mounted mounding machine MG-Combi
Can also be used for other transport such as short haul transport of energy wood. Seeder, fertilizer can be installed. Large area machine, works in almost all conditions.

 

CUTTING HEADS:

A1. Young stand tending machines

Three different models. The machines are used for young stand tending and pre-clearing before felling. Can be mounted on excavators, forwarder and harvester. Also tractor mountable, weight class and power limit the choice.

 

B1. Wood energy cutter 

One robus model for the harvester. Can be cleared and harvest energy trees at the same time, very efficient for harvesting energy wood in thinning areas.

C1. Guillotine heads for cutting
