Abstract

Loading and unloading operation system (10) adapted for use in a forestry vehicle (100), comprising a crane control unit (20) and crane sensors (30), adapted to measure the turn angle of the crane (35), and the extension position of each hydraulic actuator (36) of the crane (35), so that the crane tip location (40) and a maximum crane outreach state is detected, an engine control unit (50) and engine sensors (60), adapted to measure the RPM speed of the engine and the fuel consumption, an operator interface (70), the operation system (10) adapted to display the location of logs and various adjectives of the logs and the locations and a calculated optimum position of the vehicle (100) for loading and unloading operation, an operation CPU (80) with CPU software (90), adapted to correlate the measurements and establish a fuel matrix, depending on measured values of the crane (35), and on the fuel consumption, calculating an estimated fuel consumption depending on the established fuel matrix (110) and a theoretical crane reach as well as the number of logs, size and position in relation to an estimated vehicle position, displaying a calculated optimum stopping position of the vehicle (100) for loading or unloading the logs based on the calculation and a minimal fuel consumption or a minimal operation time, adapted to assist the operator to find the optimum stopping position by displaying the vehicle (100) on a map display, and/or stopping the vehicle automatically at the optimum stopping position.
