“Another product launched in recent years is for paper handling. Within the industry, there was а growing need to reduce damage to reels of paper during the handling process. We worked closely with the mills to find out what the industry needed and launched a forklift truck designed specially for paper handling. It’s all about finding “more intelligent” solutions for our customers.

Kalmar’s DCE 80-6 units have been developed to handle two rolls stacked one on top of the other, fitted with a Cascade integrated clamp. The attachments make it possible to lift precisely, using specific gripping pressure. Once the rolls are secured, the driver’s seat turns 180° so that visibility is guaranteed.”

According to Svetruck, log handling machines operate 5,000 and 7,500 hours a year compared with a standard forklift’s 2,000 hours. Machinery wears out and needs replacing on average every five to seven years. A single log handling machine can cost up to $800,000, making forest products a capital-intensive industry.

One challenge, according to Mantsinen, has been the fallout over the last couple of years from the so-called China effect, which has created shortages of both steel and of components. This has increased demand for hydraulic components and engine parts.

“Most railway carriages arriving from Russia are closed from the sides and materials have to be unloaded and reloaded into the open carriage for forwarding. Mantsinen has designed a new model, where the basic machine rises above the railway carriage and the machine’s tracks stand on both sides of it.

“The competitive advantages of this model are direct visibility inside the closed wagon and shorter working cycles.”

Mantsinen is expanding its consultancy services, exporting its Finnish expertise to markets such as Russia and the Baltic states. Customers’ needs are evolving steadily, Lehto says. “These days customers require consultancy services too. When they handle products themselves, they need training and instruction in handling procedures.

“But we are also seeing tougher demands for information. The customer needs the right information and needs it quickly. In future, Rauma Stevedoring is developing new IT systems that will allow our customers to download accurate information.

“We are planning to introduce a track and trace system for our forest products customers, allowing them to see exactly where their paper rolls are. We plan to install these new systems next year that will give the customer similar visibility to that which is becoming common in container shipping.
