Just released! On-board computers tutorial

FPInnovations has launched its latest knowledge transfer tool, the Tutorial on Best practices to ensure the quality of processed logs and data from the on-board computers.

This learning tool brings together the wealth of useful information in one place in the form of videos, photos and simple examples on the following topics:

  • Main components of processor and harvester heads: their purpose, inspection and maintenance.
  • Operating modes of on-board computers and parameter adjustments.
  • Concepts of error in diameter, length and volume as well as some of their causes.
  • Control measurement methods.

It is dedicated to all people who wish to apply best work practices to ensure the quality of processed logs and data from on-board computers including contractors, operators, supervisors, training centres…etc.

You can access the tutorial directly or by go to the FPInnovations website > Forest operations > Knowledge transfer.
