  • The objectives of this study were to identify engineering problems in the design and installation of cable logging operation that affects productivity through case study of actual logging sites, and to analyze associated productivity loss and increased cost. As a result of the study, when the geographic conditions and engineering safety of the site are not sufficiently considered, deflection of the cable line can not be secured. Hourly productivity of the operation decreased to 65% and the logging cost increased by more than two times compared to the productive yarding operation, which lowered overall efficiency of the operation. Thus, it is required to spread filed technologies that minimize unnecessary production cost incurred due to the in-efficient logging operations as well as secure work safety and efficiency to expand cable logging operation throughout the country.

  • In this paper, the characteristics of cable logging operations are discussed from a standpoint of mechanics. An example of standing skyline operations is used to illustrate the mechanical principles. Using force and moment boundary conditions, the maximum allowable payload was formulated as a function of slope profile, system geometry and operation options. This formulation includes fundamental equations for log drag and single segment mechanics. The catenary link model is the basic assumption in simulating cable segment stretches. In order to demonstrate the solution procedures of the formulation, a computer model was developed. The model uses Secant algorithm to determine the solution of the complex nonlinear equation set. Finally, the computer model was demonstrated using a hypothetical data set.

  • Stability of cable yarding with self-propelled carriage was discussed by theoretical tension calculation and field test. To verify usefulness of theoretical stability evaluation of cable yarding operation, skyline tension and stump anchoring force were measured and compared with theoretical calculation. As results, we know that measured skyline tension was similar to theoretical calculated tension. From these results, overall stability of cable logging operation could be evaluate. The stump anchoring force correlated closely with the stump diameters. The inclination angles that the stumps show the maximum anchoring force were ranged 5-10 degrees. It was conclude that the stumps have lost the function as an anchor when the inclinations was so large that they could be observed.

  • In this paper, the characteristics of cable logging systems, of which skyline length is adjustable during operation are discussed from a standpoint of system geometry. Among the cable logging systems, the live skyline is the typical one, of which operation is easy to understand. To analyze the cable logging mechanics of the live skyline, computer models were developed. In developing the computer models, the concept of the live skyline operation was classified into 'true live skyline' and 'live skyline with lift'. The former assumes to adjust skyline length continuously to maintain the skyline clearance over ground constant during inhaul ; the latter assumes to shorten the skyline length only to keep the minimum skyline clearance during inhaul. The computer model was used in investigating the mechanical efficiency and the operational characteristics of the live skyline system. First, the payload capability of live skyline was compared with that of standing skyline. Second, the effect of the change in the log-drag geometry on the payload capability of live skyline was investigated. Finally, the payload capability of live skyline with lift was compared with that of true live skyline as an effort to explain the concepts of true live skyline and live skyline with lift.

  • This study was conducted in clear cutting stands. For the whole-tree yarding operation, a tower-yarder based on excavator with a radio-controlled double clamp carriage was applied to analyze yarding productivity and cost. The productivity and cost of yarding operation was $6.2m^3/SMH$(machine utilization rate, 80.4%) and $13,705won/m^3$, respectively. Although the maximum yarding distance was longer than the previous studies, the setting up time of the tower-yarder was decreased as used straw line. The application of the radio-controlled double clamp carriage improved productivity and reduced costs. Based on the fuel log and growing stock($137.0m^3/ha$), the minimum production($m^3$) and area(ha) were $558.3m^3$ and 4.1 ha for Pinus rigida stands and $433.7m^3$ and 3.2 ha for Quercus mongolica stands, respectively. Based on the this study, it will be possible to select an efficient yarding machine by accumulation of data on minimum production and area for many machines in various harvesting sites.

  • This study was conducted to provide field-based harvesting study information which can be used to select an optimal cable system for certain work conditions on steep grounds (> $20^{\circ}$ ground slope) in Korea. To accomplish this study objectives, we evaluated three cable yarding systems (RME-300T tower-yarder, Chuncheon tower-yarder, FARMI tractor winch) working in typical work conditions for their yarding productivity and operational efficiency. Those yarders are commonly used for removing logs or trees on steep grounds in Korea. Under the same work conditions (average DBH of tree to be cut, 20 cm; yarding distance, 60 m; lateral yarding distance, 10 m; and machine utilization rate, 70%), the average productivities were $33.04m^3$/day, $38.47m^3$/day, and $14.17m^3$/day for RME-300T, Chuncheon tower-yarder, and FARMI, respectively. Our standardized cost comparison study also showed that the yarding cost was highest at $37,835won/m^3$ with FARMI, followed by RME-300T at $25,105won/m^3$ for the same work conditions. We found the lowest yarding cost with the Chuncheon tower-yarder at $20,520won/m^3$ which was resulted primarily from high yarding productivity at the yarding distance (60 m). Our analysis suggested that a small machine such as FARMI could be a low-cost yarding machine option for a cable yarding job with a short yarding distance (40 m or less). The Chuncheon tower-yarder is well suited for a mid-range yarding distance job in Korea, ranged between 40 to 140 m. If yarding distance were longer than 140 m, the RME-300T tower yarder appears to be most cost-effective.

  • This research was conducted in order to examine whether the Woodgrab short-wood logging method, most widely used logging method in Korea, is more favorable than other logging methods in terms of productivity and profitability. For the comparative purposes, whole-tree logging methods with cable yarding system using a swing yarder and a tower yarder were evaluated. The productivity and the profitability of the logging operations by the machine types on a L. kaempferi stand were estimated by simulating logging processes based on bucking patterns and the results were compared. As a result, the Woodgrab short-wood logging system showed the most favorable results in terms of skidding productivity and operating cost. On the contrary, the system was the least profitable among the three logging methods. Main reason is that while the system may be beneficial in terms of operation productivity, it is restricted to produce only short logs mainly for low quality raw materials such as pulp, bolts, etc. which are sold at cheap prices.
