The Slash Bundling System is designed to pick up harvest debris, compress it into cylindrical bales and then drop the debris bales, either in the cut block or along the roadside. A log forwarder can be used to transport the bales to roadside piles for subsequent loading onto log trucks for transport to an energy production facility. Removing the debris from the cut block acts to reduce the potential intensity of wildfires in the area. The Bundling System is capable of picking up harvest debris directly from the forest floor or from debris piles.
