Experimental Determination of Delimbing Forces and Deformations in Hardwood Harvesting

Delimbing is the process used to cut the branches off the trunk during tree processing by forest harvester. This process can be described as chipless cutting of green wood at a feed speed of 3 to 7 ms-1.This work aims to identify the parameters influencing the efficiency of the delimbing process. To...
