A VALMET harvester head on a 500T VALMET harvester. As the tree is

harvested, it is pulled back through the processor head where it is delimbed

and bucked in to log lengths.

 

This VALMET 892 Forwarder picks up the logs and carries them to a landing where they are loaded onto trucks for transport to the mill.
