En jämförande studie av fem lastbilsmonterade flishuggar

Abstract: The study was carried out as a time study of five wood chippers placed on trucks,so‐called huggbilar. They are trucks with built‐in wood chipper, chip bowl and crane pulling a chip trailer. The system is used for chipping wood fuel, transporting, and delivering the chips to heating plants. Some of the biofuel plantations are adjacent to large cities, and inward transport is influenced by a variety of factors such as traffic density, road class, passage of smaller towns, etc. The purpose of this study is to identify and describe the time required for processing and transporting forest fuel by different models of wood chippers on trucks. The intention is also to describe the geographic differences in the form of various road standards, etc. The study was conducted after a proposal from Skogsåkarna i Mellansverige AB.
