Abstract

The paper presents the 3D modeling of a multifunctional equipment that can be attached to the excavator arm in order to prepare the wood material, being necessary for harvesting trees with high productivity. The equipment performs operations of clamping the trunks of the trees with hydraulically driven claws, cutting operations with a chainsaw and the operation of moving the trunk of the tree with the help of rollers in both directions for cleaning branches and bark. The CAE analysis of the requested parts confirms the correct design of this type of equipment.
