Holp GmbH from Murrhardt reports a 100 percent increase in working speed with its RotoTop rotary drive system for timber handling equipment. The rotating attachment enables continuous 360-degree positioning of timber loads on forestry machinery and log loaders, eliminating repositioning cycles during stacking and sorting operations. According to the manufacturer, the system reduces handling time per load by approximately half compared to conventional fixed grapples. The technology targets sawmills, timber yards, and forestry contractors processing high volumes of roundwood, where cycle time directly impacts throughput capacity.
