Vimek has developed a new machine for the Next Generation project.
Our aim is to offer efficient and sympathetic machines for thinning and forest management, and our goal is to be a world-leading supplier of forest machines in the compact class.
Working environment
Must a small machine have a less comfortable working environment? We don’t think so. Try our new spacious cab that offers excellent visibility, good air flow and low noise level.
Driving pleasure
It should be fun to drive. A flexible machine that feels capable and has a modern interface is one of the keys to achieving this. Another is that high-quality work can be carried out to give the stock the best conditions to develop.
Online
The machine is connected, which gives you access to smart and convenient functions. In the event of no internet connection, the information is sent when connectivity is available.
Climate impact
As long as we need to use diesel in forest machines, we make sure that we consume as little as possible. An optimized design means that the machine can tackle terrain with ease and has a low power-loss system. Smart control programs help achieve durable and fast work despite a relatively small 55Kw engine. HVO can also be used of course.
Agility
Perhaps the market’s most agile forwarder. A compact design and unique steering make getting around easy.
Productivity
Vimek Next Generation forwarders are built to maintain high production. Smart functions that makes work more efficient and allow you to adjust the machine to your wishes.
Sympathy
Refers to total weight and ground pressure. But also a good transmission and agility to prevent damaging the ground. Vimek Next Generation is built for minimal ground impact.
