Super complex work environment of machine operators

AVATAR @ ForestValue Midterm Seminar 202018.11.2020 2

AVATAR Goal• Within the project AVATAR, a digital coaching,

assistance and feedback system is designed for improving productivity and job satisfaction of forest machine operators

AVATAR – Project objectives• Reduce training and skills demands on new operators while reducing workload on

skilled operators• Broaden the operator base by contributing to a more accessible, balanced and

attractive work environment for both genders• Clarify which data are most closely associated with individual performance and how

these can be gainfully used within the GDPR framework • Unlock the full potential of current production systems and thereby substantially

reduce cost of biomass supply• Increase detail data capture on European forests through promotion of CTL systems

running StanForD• Promote R&D cooperation within and between Scandinavia and central-Europe

Activities carried out, so far (examples)

• Analyzing machine activities and identifying work elements, Skogforsk

• Quality control for improved recovery of timber, Skogforsk

• Identification of detrimental work pattern, joint activity

• Factors influencing loading times of forwarders, Göttingen

Quality control for improved recovery of timber

Identification of detrimental work patternType Category Description of (negative) work practice

Harvester Positioning and reaching for trees Reaching too far ahead to fell trees (also processing). The crane is too slow when reaching far

Harvester Positioning and reaching for trees Unnecessarily reversing the machine to bring more trees to a pile

Harvester Felling Felling into a direction where you can´t see the rot immediately

Harvester Felling Assortment piles should be laid out in a fan pattern. There should be nodistance between the logs at the end facing the road, but around 1,5 metersat the other end

Harvester Crane use Using the extension too late when reaching for a tree

Forwarder Crane settings Crane speed to high

Forwarder Crane skill Not using the extension enough/sporadically/only when you cannot reach. Itshould be used in most movements

Forwarder Unloading When loading/unloading unnecessarily lifting the empty grapper over thesupports instead of going between

Factors influencing loading times of forwarders

32.84 seconds(loading time average all distances, all angles, logs parallel to driving direction; n=90)

31.78 seconds(loading time average all distances, all angles, logs 90°-angle to driving direction; n=90)

a) Log orientation

28.73 seconds(loading time average 4 and 6 m, all grapper angles, both log angles, without telescope; n=60)

26.19 seconds(loading time average 4 and 6 m, all grapper angles, both log angles, with telescope; n=60)

b) Use of telescope of crane

30.50 seconds(loading time average all distances, 45°, both log angles, with and withouttelescope; n=60)

(45°)

(90°)

(135°)

c) Angle of crane-out

Exploitation perspectives

• Digital coaching, assistance and feedback system for machine operator is

urgently needed

• Even single system components are of high added value for efficient,

productive and enjoyable machine operations
