New From Ponsse: Next Gen Opti 5G System
Ponsse continuously develops solutions that improve the work of forest machine operators, and is now introducing the next-generation Opti 5G information system for tracked-based machines. The system is specifically designed to enhance productivity, ease of use, and data management in demanding conditions.
The customizable “My View” display allows quick setting adjustments without interruption, and the active map view enhances safety and situational awareness, says Markku Savolainen, Product Manager, Harvester Heads, Ponsse Plc.
Opti 5G produces accurate, real-time data on machine performance, working time, production, and fuel consumption. Thanks to standardized StanForD 2010 data, the system is compatible with international harvesting systems and can be expanded with additional applications. Designed for global use, Opti 5G supports multiple languages and units of measurement. The system also allows marking tree specific data, such as decay or insect damage observations, for reporting purposes.
Usability has been significantly improved: Fast response time, clear menus, and three main logical views (work, planning and machine) support smooth operation. The experience is complemented by the new Opti 8X display, offering excellent visibility and high touch precision even in demanding conditions.
Opti 5G is now available as standard equipment for all Ponsse harvester heads installed on tracked machines.
