Mechanical – Hydraulic – Electrical

Mechanical – attachment-mounted machines

The machines from BTD Technics feature a robust mechanical design and are engineered for professional use under demanding conditions. Vulnerable components such as cylinders, hoses, sensors and pivot points are mounted in protected positions wherever possible.

The PROcompact, PROcompact-S and PROplus are mechanically attached to the carrier vehicle. Two flat, bolt-on mounting plates with slotted holes are used for this purpose. The plates can be mounted on the machine at 5 cm increments and fitted with vehicle-specific attachment hooks.

An optional mounting frame is available for mobile excavators. For smaller quick-coupler systems, such as CW10 and smaller, suitable weld-on hooks can often be used directly, depending on the application.

Mechanical – mobile machine

The TrailerPlus-M from BTD Technics is built as an independent mobile production unit on a road-approved trailer chassis. As a result, no mechanical connection to a hydraulic carrier vehicle is required to power the firewood processor.

The TrailerPlus-M combines the sawing and splitting technology of the PROplus with an integrated log infeed system, its own power unit, a hydraulic system and a discharge conveyor in one robust mobile construction.

Hydraulics

For proper operation, the carrier vehicle must provide a continuous hydraulic pressure supply (P), a return connection (T) and a direct case drain line (L) to the tank. The minimum hydraulic flow rate is 35 l/min for the PROcompact and 55 l/min for the PROcompact-S and PROplus, at an operating pressure of approximately 210–250 bar. The maximum return pressure is 25 bar. Connection sizes are P/T 1/2″ and L 1/4″ for the PROcompact and PROcompact-S, and P/T 3/4″ and L 1/4″ for the PROplus.

  • The machines from BTD Technics are equipped with a hydraulic BTD Manifold (distribution block). Its main advantage is that all functions are integrated into a single housing. This simple design minimises the number of hydraulic connections and contributes to high operational reliability and low energy losses. The manifold is mounted in a protected position, with no separate, unprotected valves around the machine.
  • The hydraulic BTD Manifold is equipped as standard with integrated maximum flow and pressure limitation. This eliminates the need for additional provisions on the carrier vehicle and helps prevent damage to the hydraulic system.
  • The design of the hydraulic BTD Manifold ensures stable machine operation at varying oil temperatures.
  • All hydraulic components are generously sized. The cylinders are rated for pressures up to 320 bar to ensure reliable operation, even under peak loads and during prolonged use.

Electrical – attachment-mounted machines

The PROcompact, PROcompact-S and PROplus from BTD Technics feature a simple and safe electrical design, with optimal mechanical protection for electrical and electronic components.

Key features:

  • Wireless operation from the carrier vehicle. The control unit is powered via a cigarette lighter plug (12 V DC, optional 24 V DC) and secured using a magnetic mount. The control cabinet is connected via a 3-pin plug (12 V DC/10 A, optional 24 V DC).
  • No wiring is required between the control unit in the cab and the machine.
  • Optimal protection of all control components.

Electrical – mobile machine

The TrailerPlus-M from BTD Technics has been developed for simple and efficient operation and features a swivelling control panel with two joysticks. This allows the control position to be optimally adjusted to the operator’s working position and view of the machine.

All essential sawing and splitting functions can be conveniently operated from the control panel, including:

  • manual operation of all sawing and splitting functions;
  • automatic sawing and splitting cycle;
  • adjustable cutting length;
  • SHORT/LONG function on/off;
  • emergency stop and reset function for the safety circuit.

In addition, the following auxiliary functions can be operated using proportional hydraulic controls:

  • log lifter;
  • discharge conveyor operation and swivelling;
  • opening and closing the safety gate.
