SMART CARRIAGE

Keep your breaker outs safe and increase your production by 40%. 

Description

The APEX DC220 Smart Carriage is a 3D-aware dropline carriage using a low latency, high-definition camera to read the terrain and locate breaker outs in relation to the drag.

Wide-angle cameras give your yarder operator a live bird’s eye view of the cutover.

The dropline winch boasting 22ton of line-pull has enough power to break out the logs. This gives the HBO full control of the breaking out with a hand-held remote rather than the yarder operator who is often out of line of sight from the drag. The hardy remote incorporates a dead-man trigger to activate the carriage controls to ensure no accidental operation of the carriage.

A lagged and guarded dropline winch lets you lose or gain slack on the run, increasing production by up to 40% over traditional slackline carriages. Larger sheaves and no clamps or spitter wheel extend rope life. A hinging top section and full-width side doors make servicing and repairs quick and easy.
