The updated HTH622B Series-III includes several new features that make its performance even smoother and faster, including a new valve with better flow-through characteristics for reducing heat, while improving feed speed and sawing performance. When coupled with the TimberRite H-16 control system, this translates to improved feeding performance, log handling and speed when single stem processing, and pronounced ¾ in. pitch saw performance.
Additionally, a new measuring arm with 30 mm more travel and sensor protection provides increased accuracy in measuring crooked wood and improved uptime.
The HTH622B Series-III features a new twin retainer front knife and strengthened upper delimb castings each contributing to improved delimbing durability. The head has a new tilt frame and optional integrated color marking system; a newly styled and stronger valve cover and hinges as well as reinforced drive arm covers keep key components covered.
An optional main saw box strengthening kit for harvesting can provide additional protection, and new top saw motor protection and seals help fight cold weather conditions to improve uptime.
The new HTH622B Series-III improves uptime with several updates that make servicing quicker and easier. Supplementing the new valve performance and reliability is faster access to the valve with new integrated handles and tool-less entry—followed by an improved and simplified hose layout, which provides optimum access and serviceability.
