With the aim of consolidating its leadership position in the forestry sector, John Deere, a global technology company that supplies software and equipment for the agricultural, construction and forestry sectors, is present at the 5th edition of Expoforest.
The main release is IBC 3.0 technology, a new version of intelligent boom control. With the Harvester IBC, the operator only controls the head while the system takes care of boom movement. The IBC 3.0 offers even more features that help avoid feed into the cab and help the operator find safe ways to work while keeping the machine intact. With the IBC for Forwarder, the boom is very precise and easy to operate, the operator controls the boom tip instead of controlling the independent linkage movements. The IBC system has electrical end cushioning for all directions of main boom movement.
Another highlight is the forestry planter, which represents a true revolution for the market, capable of storing 2,392 seedlings and optimizing manual labor time by up to 90%. Through georeferenced planting using the Starfire 7000 antenna from John Deere and the Autotrac autopilot, the new machine has the TimberMatic Maps & TimberManager systems, which contributes to the reduction of labor, high precision and efficient use of the water, all of this done with remote planning of operations. In addition, its platform is the 1510G forwarder, robust and economical equipment that guarantees movement versatility in multiple terrains, more ergonomics and safety.
“The mechanization of forestry is a key aspect for technologies such as geolocation of seedlings, spraying with automatic pilot inside the forest and a planting map integrated into the harvester, with access to data maps that show the location of each tree. All of these integrated items help operators and managers achieve great production potential, making room for them to dedicate time to new techniques and handling, innovations and trends, based on the history and data generated throughout the entire production process,” he says. Stanley Gepp, director of the Forestry Division of John Deere Brazil and Latin America.
