Link-Belt 210X3E excavator enhances forestry operations in Chile

The Link-Belt 210X3E excavator is being increasingly utilized in the forestry sector to improve productivity and operational efficiency. While traditionally used in construction, these machines are being adapted for forestry tasks such as wood processing, log handling, and land clearing through the use of specialized implements like processor heads, grapples, and shredders.

In the Ñuble region of Chile, the company Forestal TheSower has utilized the Link-Belt 210X3E equipped with a wood processor head for approximately four years. David Hinojosa Arce, the company's general manager, reported high satisfaction with the machine's performance, specifically noting its fuel efficiency and its ability to maintain stability and operational capacity in both flat areas and steep mountainous terrain.
