The study was carried out in eucalyptus plantations of a forest company in the State of Goiás to develop an electronic device to automatically demarcate wood bucking point. The tractor used was a Caterpillar 320 CL with hydraulic excavator and 103 kW engine. A programmable counter, an impulse generator and an inductive type proximity sensor held in a metal housing were used to control the bucking length. The results showed that the predetermined log lengths measured by the electronic device and standard log were close. The sensor was incapable of resetting automatically if the operator surpassed the required length. The device however requires adjustment, especially for demarcation time.Downloads
