FPInnovations conducts machine testing to improve worker safety

摘要

Technology and safety can go hand in hand in research.Today's forestry workers aretasked to harvest trees on many different terrain types. While hand falling trees is one of the most dangerous jobs in the forest, the protection afforded by the cab of a feller buncher can minimize worker injuries and fatalities. FPInnovations is working to increase worker safety by performing machine tests that will help the industry better understand the safe working limits of this equipment on slopes.
