Automatic Log Loading

With global containerized log exports on the rise, having efficient and safe equipment for loading logs into containers is more important than ever.
Using knuckleboom loaders or modified forklifts for container loading is inefficient and risky. These machines aren’t designed for containerized operations, leading to higher maintenance costs, potential container damage, and costly weight adjustments.
Optimize your log export operations with equipment built specifically for containerized loading, increasing safety, efficiency, and profitability.

Automated Log Loader for Containerized Exports

Efficient, safe, and cost-effective log loading is more important than ever with global containerized log exports surging. Traditional equipment like knuckleboom loaders or modified forklifts aren’t designed for containerized operations, leading to higher maintenance costs, container damage, and costly rework.

Our Automated Log Loader solves these challenges by providing fast, safe, and reliable container loading for logs and other long, heavy goods.
 

Overview

•   Speeds up containerized log loading by preparing cargo in advance
•   Reduces manual labor and operational costs
•   Ensures every container is safely and efficiently packed
•   Customizable to handle specific log sizes or other long/heavy cargo
 

Key Features

•   Sliding plate mechanism for rapid container filling
•   Single-operator functionality – one person loads an entire container
•   Certified scales for pre-weighing and load adjustment
•   Heavy-duty design to minimize maintenance and downtime
•   Adaptable to different container sizes (20ft, 40ft, 45ft)

Benefits

✓ Speed Up Loading. Load containers in minutes, optimizing turnaround and throughput.

✓  Reduce Maintenance Costs. Cut operational costs by up to 30% with one automated system.

✓ Eliminate Container Returns. Pre-weigh logs and adjust loads to avoid costly container rejections.
