En jämförande studie mellan stickvägsgående och beståndsgående skördare och skotare.

Öberg, Daniel January 2016 (has links)
Thinning is performed today with essentially two thinning methods, with strip-roads or stand-thinning machines. The result after thinning affects the stands future development. In this study, the two thinning methods was compared with regard to distribution of basal area, resulting damage, the distribution of stems, actual thinning intensity and the impact that these differences may provide in the future. The survey was conducted in Sundsvall, Sweden in two different stands where basal area- surfaces, number of stems, damage and thinning strength was measured. The result shows that stand-thinning machines produce less damage to the stems and a more even distribution of the basal area. The strip-road method carried out a thinning of excessive thinning intensity of 50 % compared to 30 % for stand-thinning method. From a quality point of view the stand-thinning machines performed a better result. These machines have a lower production (harvested volume per hour) which probably results in lower financial gains in thinnings. Keywords: stand-thinning, basal area, thinning strength, Vimek, soil damage.

Produktionsoptimering av boggie-H vid Vimek / Production optimization of bogie-H at Vimek

Olofsson, Emil January 2022 (has links)
Vimek är en tillverkare av skogsmaskiner i kompaktklassen. Företagets skogsmaskiner används ofta i beståndsgående gallring, men också för andra åtgärder på skogsfastigheter, som att hämta vindfällen, snöbrott eller för underhåll av diken. Under Vimeks utvecklingsprojekt Vimek Next generation har de utvecklat en unik boggie-H för en 8-hjulig skotare. Detta examensarbete har genomförts för att utarbeta realistiska förslag för produktions-optimering av boggie-H som kan verkställas på kort sikt. Målet var att i tidigt skede eliminera kvalitets- och arbetsmiljörisker samt uppnå en god produktivitet. Verktygen som användes under projektet var lean manufacturing, 5S och kaizen, som tillsammans med flertalet analyser för att kartlägga nuläget var grunden för att erhålla implementerbara förslag. De framtagna förslagen bidrar till att reducera monteringstider, minska kostnader alternativt förbättra arbetsmiljön för montören. Några av de förslag som tagits fram har varit design av en montörvagn, konstruktionsoptimering av drevnav och ett alternativt sätt för att täta gängor. Det kan dras slutsatsen att syftet med projektet har uppfyllts. De flertal förbättringsförslag som projektet resulterat i medför en årlig tidsbesparing om 201 timmar och 20 min respektive en kostnadsbesparing på 488 959 SEK per år. Förbättringsarbetet bör ej stagnera efter att projektet avslutats, utan det ska ske ständiga förbättringar. / Vimek is a manufacturer of compact forest machines. The forest machines are often used in permanent thinning, but also other tasks on forest properties, such as retrieving wind traps, snow breaks or for the maintenance of ditches. During Vimek's development project Vimek Next generation, they have developed a unique bogie-H for an 8-wheeled forwarder.  This thesis has been carried out with the aim to prepare realistic proposals for production optimization of a bogie-H that can be implemented in the short term. The goal was to eliminate quality and work environment risks at an early stage and to achieve a good productivity. The tools used during the project were lean manufacturing, 5S and kaizen, which, together with the analyses to map the current situation, provided the basis for obtaining implementable proposals. The developed proposals will contribute to reducing the assembly time, production costs and improve the working environment for the assembly worker. Some of the proposals that have been developed have been the design of an assembly trolley, design optimization of the drive hub and an alternative way of sealing threads.  In conclusion, the purpose of the project has been fulfilled, as it resulted in improvement proposals that entail a yearly time saving of 201 hours and 20 minutes, as well as cost saving of 488 959 SEK per year. It is recommended that the improvement work continues even after the completion of the current project.
