This bachelor’s degree thesis was conducted in mechanical engineering at Halmstad University during spring semester 2010 in close collaboration with the company Gremo AB, located in Ätran, Sweden. Gremo AB produces, developes and sales forest machines in both Sweden and on the international market. Gremo AB belongs to one of the market leaders in forest industry, especially with their forwarder. In order to become a market leader even with their harvester, the company decided to change the harvester to have a swivel and a leveling driver cabin. The aim with this bachelor’s degree thesis was to develop a design concept for the harvester driver cabin, which Gremo AB can apply on the new harvester. However, this bachelor’s degree thesis was limited to the outside design of the driver cabin. Further, the aim was to develop a smaller model in order to get a better feeling about the new driver cabin’s appearance. By dint of different analysis we developed an edgy driver cabin with shared side posts and a lot of storage space on the outside. Additionally, there are options for more and adjustable lights, which was one of Gremos preferences. Also the inside storage space has become larger with better comfort for the driver. In case of underline our result we developed a smaller prototype. The result of this thesis has been passed on to Gremo AB for further development.
