Device for manufacturing and handling bundles of stacked goods, such as bundles of logs, comprising: - two opposite trestles (2, 3) placed on a common base plate, preferably on an euro-pallet, - a first trestle being placed non-slidable on the base plate, whereas a second trestle is provided being slidable in a parallel direction with reference to the first trestle on the base plate from a first position which substantially abuts against the first trestle, that is, the basic position for stacking the bundle, into a second position spaced from the first trestle or into further positions, wherein a longitudinal insertion axis of the device extends between the two trestles (2, 3) in the first position, - wherein the trestles (2, 3) together have at the top, in the first position, a recess shaped like a segment of a circle in the form of the bundle to be formed, wherein the lower vertex of the recess contacts the surface of the base plate, and the extension of a combined recess shaped like a segment of a circle of a trestle amounts to more than 90°, and therefore the overall recess shaped like a segment of a circle of both trestles amount to more than 180° in total; - wherein each trestle (2, 3) consists of two lateral walls (4, 5), parallel to one another in the direction of the longitudinal insertion axis and being spaced and firmly interconnected, - the second trestle being provided with a belt reversing mechanism protruding radially into the inside of the recess, and - a tension belt which can be guided around the bundle, such that it is reversed protruding into the interior of the bundle via the belt reversing mechanism, wherein the tension belt is able to be closed and tightened over a turnbuckle. - two opposite trestles (2, 3) placed on a common base plate, preferably on an euro-pallet, - a first trestle being placed non-slidable on the base plate, whereas a second trestle is provided being slidable in a parallel direction with reference to the first trestle on the base plate from a first position which substantially abuts against the first trestle, that is, the basic position for stacking the bundle, into a second position spaced from the first trestle or into further positions, wherein a longitudinal insertion axis of the device extends between the two trestles (2, 3) in the first position, - wherein the trestles (2, 3) together have at the top, in the first position, a recess shaped like a segment of a circle in the form of the bundle to be formed, wherein the lower vertex of the recess contacts the surface of the base plate, and the extension of a combined recess shaped like a segment of a circle of a trestle amounts to more than 90°, and therefore the overall recess shaped like a segment of a circle of both trestles amount to more than 180° in total; - wherein each trestle (2, 3) consists of two lateral walls (4, 5), parallel to one another in the direction of the longitudinal insertion axis and being spaced and firmly interconnected, - the second trestle being provided with a belt reversing mechanism protruding radially into the inside of the recess, and - a tension belt which can be guided around the bundle, such that it is reversed protruding into the interior of the bundle via the belt reversing mechanism, wherein the tension belt is able to be closed and tightened over a turnbuckle.
