| Caterpillar Forest Products features new center post saw  Caterpillar Forest Products debuted the SC-57 center post saw at the East Coast Sawmill and Logging Equipment Exposition. The new saw fells trees up to 22 in. diameter and also bunches medium and small stems, making it a versatile saw for thinning through final harvesting. The large box-section gathering arms are designed to support loads that can twist or bend the arms of less rigid saws. Several upgraded machines were also showcased. The SH-50 bunching saw, with the innovative Strait Grip bunching finger (patent pending) that tucks trees tightly into the accumulating pocket, was recently enhanced to increase performance and lower operating costs. The felling saws were shown paired with Cat and Prentice wheel feller bunchers, all recently upgraded to boost multifunctioning, saw recovery time, acceleration and ground speed.write your comments about the article :: © 2010 Construction News :: home page |
