Can you afford to run on bad rollers?

In the Cut-to-Length (CTL) method, logs are processed in the forest into different types of timber, or product assortments, based on their intended use. In the CTL method, 12-18% of the harvester’s total working time is spent on feeding the wood. This means that during an eight-hour shift, 1 to 1.5 hours is spent solely on feeding the wood.

The feeding rollers have a significant impact on productivity and the costs associated with the harvester. They also play a crucial role in the Feeding rollers have a significant impact on both productivity and the costs associated with operating the harvester. They're also crucial when it comes to the quality of the harvest and the residual damage left behind.

Poor rollers can lead to lower productivity, higher operational costs, and worse harvesting quality. Over time, this can increase fuel consumption, wear on the machine, and even the need for more frequent repairs.

So, the real question is: can you afford to run with poor rollers? In the long run, the costs of poor rollers often outweigh the savings you might get from opting for cheaper, lower-quality options. It’s all about finding that balance between initial investment and overall efficiency. Quality rollers can pay for themselves through better performance and lower maintenance costs
