“The Ponsse team is all around great to work with and their service is hard to beat. If they cannot send someone out right away, they can usually talk us through the issue over the phone. Parts are almost always available locally or in Rhinelander and can be shipped overnight. The equipment itself is user friendly and reliable. And our Ponsse Salesman is one of the best!”

“Elliot Henderson Ltd has always been at the forefront of new machine releases over the years, which in turn keeps the harvesting fleet productive and at the vanguard of innovation. We are excited to be adding this Scorpion Giant to the fleet. This machine will go straight to work and we feel the extra power and H8 head will benefit us in this application. We look forward to seeing what it can do! We are currently running PONSSE Scorpion, Ergo, three Elephants and one Buffalo.”

A warm thank you to all participants!

“The choice of forest machine was clear. PONSSE is the best machine, and Baltic Agro Machinery has the best maintenance and other services. For the sake of efficiency, we use moderately large PONSSE Buffalos and one PONSSE Bison for our forwarders.”

”I’ve used Harvester Active Crane for a few years now. I wouldn’t go back, as the system has made working so much more easily. When you control the harvester head’s movements instead of individual functions, you can keep going longer. You don’t have to focus on crane operations in so much detail. It’s great to see how systems like this are developed to make working easier.”

The Cobra machines were chosen because of the better efficiency in the use of the hydraulic system, which allows lower diesel consumption.

In the case of forwarder Mammoth it is for its load capacity, which is 25 tons, so it allows us to be more efficient and more productive. It also has additional features such as the Active Cabin and Active Seat, which helps the ergonomics of the operator and his care.

CTL is one of the most environmentally friendly forest cutting systems. And in addition to that, the logistics are simpler, more direct – you are working with a couple of machines from the same brand, from the same line, so the logistics are much faster.

We were quite happy with the decision, because it is an equipment that really performs in a very delicate way the extraction of selected trees within the stands without causing damage. [Talking about a harvester Ponsse capable of thinning without damaging the residual forest].

Customer Stories

It was because of the reputation (the purchase of Ponsse Machines) that Ponsse had for having the best equipment for the type of work that was needed.
