JST Services multiple wheeled Low Ground Pressure Vehicles reduces ground pressure to less than half that of a conventional vehicle which makes it possible to extract timber from the most inaccessible areas.
THE PROBLEM
Ever increasing volumes of timber being moved in Britain has resulted in timber being sourced from more inaccessible locations to satisfy demand. Many of these forests were planted 20-30 years ago, when timber vehicles were smaller and lighter, moving timber to mill in the quantities moved today were never projected. Most modern timber vehicles gross 44 tonnes are primarily designed for hard road use and short journeys into forests, many will have super single wheels which tramline forest roads even over a short number of repeated journeys. This coupled with the intensity of the traffic has given the land owners and the industry a major cost in repairing roads.
SOLUTION
JST Services has devised special Low Ground Pressure Vehicles with multiple wheels strategically placed on the trailers to lower ground pressure to less than half of a conventional vehicle. These vehicles are designed specifically to work only “off road” and can carry up to 45 tonnes payload, not only reducing damage to the forest roads but leaving customers with big savings in road budgets. In many cases JST Services is taking control of the road repairs and offering a whole package solution to our customers.
