The inventor
Realize your idea
This slogan was the motto of the Jugend Forscht Contest in 2014. Inventing personally is always been in my blood. I am always passionate about new technologies. For years Energieholz has accompanied me intensively through my father's part-time farming. We as pioneers in the country with the management of energy wood changed our way of farming for energy production. However, early on we realized that new management technologies demand a lot of manual labor. The necessary machines just still not exist. Therefore, as a family, we decided to take things into our own hands and develop our own machines for the management of wood. Success in agriculture encouraged us and meanwhile we can look back together on 7 intensive years with pioneering innovations. Our best product in addition to our short rotation plantation wood chips is my first series-produced harvester for energy wood, the Stembundler. My personal best achievement as a studied mechanical engineer, recognized by the federal victory at Jugend Forscht.
Technical specifications
New technology
We have been the innovation leader in short rotation plantations harvesting techniques for over 7 years on small areas harvested under difficult conditions.
Dry wood chips set standards
Our ultimate goal is to produce an excellent quality of wood chips. Dry short rotation plantations wood chips set new standards.
Compact, Simple and Ingenious
Agricultural machines only use the farmer if one can work reliably under the most difficult conditions. The robust and simple Stembundler harvester is designed by farmers for farmers.
Everything in view
The long-term tests on the field have shown that the crop runs smoother with optimal visibility. Areas that the operator can not see are visualized with cameras. Thus, despite limited visibility, every angle of the machine can be observed from the tractor.
Perfect cut
For a quick growth after the cut a clean cut of the wood is important. That is why our saw blades and the drive are specially designed and tuned to the needs of the energy woods.
800mm a bunch
The ideal size of the discarded bundle measures approx. 800mm in diameter. By grasping once with a forestry tongs, the whole bundle can be picked up and transported. This saves valuable time during harvesting when every step is optimally coordinated.
Easy connection
The fast availability of the harvester is especially important in winter. If the weather permits, the harvest must be done quickly. That's why the connection to every tractor is as simple as possible. This reduces the lead time to a minimum.
