FRAME STRUCTURES AND FRAME
OSCILLATION LOCK
The design of the Elk frame focuses particularly on durability and ease of maintenance. In addition to reliability, the functional positioning and serviceability of components are typical characteristics of the structure.
POWER AND PRECISION
Elk’s strong hydraulics and precise feel make loading easy and reliable. The maximum reach of the loaders extend all the way to 10 meters. PONSSE Active Crane offers a new way of controlling the loader and boosting efficiency. It is a forwarder system which the operator uses to control the grapple movement instead of individual functions, allowing the operator to concentrate efficiently on loader work. Active Crane is easily controlled using two levers, one of which controls the grapple height from the ground and the other controls the direction of movement. What is essential is that the operator does not need to control all the functions simultaneously. Once the appropriate grapple location has been given to the machine, it will perform the lift and use the boom and extension automatically. The operator can easily switch between Active Crane and conventional loader control with a push of a button. Active Crane is based on Ponsse’s unique Sensor Module technology, which is used in the PONSSE Scorpion leveling system and the PONSSE Active Frame suspension system. This provides the Active Crane with easy maintenance A long bogie, a new bogie option designed for harvesting in soft conditions, reduces the ground pressure of the machine significantly compared to a standard bogie when using tracks.
