Skidders |
|
|
|
The most innovative characteristic of Tigercat skidders is the
revolutionary hydrostatic drive.
Hydrostatic drive improves productivity, reduces site impact and
makes operators happy.
No gear shifting With Tigercat skidders, the operator commands infinitely variable speed control from zero to maximum simply by depressing the foot pedal. The skidder operator does not have to continually shift to maintain the optimal gear for the terrain. Operator fatigue is significantly reduced. (During an average work shift, the skidder operator shifts gears as many as 1500 times!) Smooth travel On all Tigercat skidders, the wheels will maintain the speed commanded by the drive pedal, regardless of the traction or pulling torque required. When maximum horsepower is reached, speed reduction occurs automatically. Smooth and continuous traction allows Tigercat skidders to operate with minimal wheel spin. The result is reduced site disturbance, longer tire life, less driveline stress and improved performance in soft or steep terrain. No throttle pedal
Tigercat skidders can operate at full engine rpm for extreme terrain
conditions or variable rpm for enhanced fuel economy. Full hydraulic
power is ALWAYS available for all machine functions. Hydrostatic braking Because skidder travel ceases as the drive pedal is released on Tigercat skidders, there is virtually no reliance on the secondary braking system. Brake service is seldom required because secondary braking is rarely used. The operator can maintain excellent vehicle control on slopes.

Felling Head Attachments |
|
|
|
Tigercat's line of patented saws and shears are the industry's most productive. Felling heads that can cut and carry a great number of trees will improve the productivity of the entire harvesting system. Why? Because a feller buncher pays when it is cutting trees. It does not pay when it is driving or swinging to the skidder drag. It does not pay when it is dumping trees or driving to the next tree. A good bunching head holds the trees in tight, parallel alignment. This boosts skidder productivity because the skidder only pays when it is pulling wood to the deck. It does not pay when it is maneuvering around trying to gather a bunch and it does not pay in full unless it is pulling the largest payload that it is capable of High capacity Tigercat saws and shears ensure that the bunches are optimized for the skidder. Larger, tighter bunches also reduce wear and tear on the drive components of the buncher and skidder. For additional specifications and pricing contact Tejas Equipment, Inc. Sales at 409-331-0111 or email Jay Kenesson. |
