Next level: the GMT TTC grapple saw. TTC stands for Total Tree Control. TTC combines the advantage of grasping the tree flexible with the ability to keep or hold tree sections in position when removing them. Not only is the tilt cylinder of the grapple blocked, but so is the movement in all directions in the cardanic suspension between rotator and crane. This ‘blocking’ method is unique and patent for the system is pending.

What makes our felling head so unique? Mounted on mobile cranes, rotating telehandlers, container trucks, wood harvesting machines or forestry machines, it means you no longer need to use a cherry-picker. One person can operate the grapple saw from the ground! Directly off the tree into a container or chipper. In short: less manpower, less material and minimal nuisance to the environment!
