I have a hakki pilki 2x and two of us can do 100 cubic meters a day. If we dont stop for a pee, lunch, adjust or sharpen the chain never service the tractor, never grease anything, dont process into bags, always have 8" stuff and work 24hrs straight through, otherwise its 8 hrs of the above and we get 18 cubic metres :biggrin:

You had me worried there for a bit.

 

Ten years ago using similar I could load 14 .7m3 bags and stack them in barn in a normal 7 hour day.

80 tons, so say 200 cube, at 4 cube an hour ( more likely 3 on average) thats 50-70 hours work, a year !. Well you certainly have the capacity for some growth unless you go contract processing with it.

Plenty of room for growth!

Circular saw is what you need! :biggrin:

 

TCT blade on posch 300, will do well over 100 ton before needing a sharpen.

 

we were doing 4 cube in 45 minutes yesterday on 8 inch logs softwood.

 

Great machine, 3 yrs old and havent touched it austrian engineering at its best:thumbup1:

 

Hi five for the Posch processor! We send off a blade once a year and we probably do 400-500 ton a year though our 350. cuts much faster than chains. The green and orange arnt without thier faults but i think they are generally better machines, not chep though. The diference in timber straightness and iameter is night and day though.
