Pfanzelt - Profi Forwarding Trailers

The Profi series introductory model
The P11+ sparks a passion by powerful performance with compact dimensions. It has been equipped with a powerful forestry crane in load class B4.

For duty in demanding terrain, the P11+ can also be equipped with uniDRIVE wheel drive.

Practical report
Pfanzelt forwarding trailers are not only used in forests. Tree professional Josef Höllinger uses a P13 Profi forwarding trailer to transport materials when felling on the construction site and during removal.

Practical report
It is a very special task requiring precision work from people, animals and machines. For example, Agrarservice Frank uses his P15 Profi forwarding trailer with powerDRIVE 2-wheel drive when forwarding on sensitive soil.

• Central-tube frame for maximum stability
• Frame extension and sliding axles for optimum weight distribution combined with a high degree of load flexibility
• Licenced for public roads for 25 km/h or 40 km/h with CoC document (depends on the equipment)
• Powerful loading cranes made for professionals with an operational range of up to 10 metres and a hoisting force of 7 mt featuring a rapid traverse valve for even faster telescopic extension
• A-column or H-column stabilisers for optimum parking stability even in difficult terrain
• The operating console on the draw bar is optimally configured for ease of use.
• Large range of accessories for forestry professionals

Frame
The strong frame structure which is based on a torsion-resistant central spar is the basis for the excellent off-road handling properties of the Pfanzelt forwarding trailer, even when loaded. The central spar is made of fine grain steels to cope with the highest loads. Besides maximum stability, this design offers maximum ground clearance. The central spar has a double wall in the crane mounting plate area to provide the forwarding trailer with additional strength for heavy crane attachments. A second spar is has been welded to the central spar to exacting technical standards.

Frame extension and sliding axle
The flat bed can be extended by up to 2,000 mm for the transport of various timber lengths by means of an integrated, extensible frame. The greatest possible flexibility for loading of the forwarding trailer is also assured by the stanchions whose position can be changed by sliding them along the central spar and the axle bogie. By sliding the axle bogie, heavy loads can be precisely adjusted to the tractor type, thus avoiding the drawbar load being exceeded and also preventing a negative drawbar load.

Bogie axle
The bogie axle of Pfanzelt forwarding trailers offers stability during crane operation and the best possible drive characteristics. The large pendulum travel of the bogie axle has a range of up to 394 mm. This enables that the trailer can safely drive over branches and other obstacles. The even distribution of the ground pressure is another big advantage.

Bearings
The bogie axle is mounted on lubricatable and adjustable spherical articulated bearings. This guarantees true running for many years.

Steerable draw bar
Pfanzelt forwarding trailers are equipped as standard with a pivoting draw bar with a large steering angle. The maximum excursion from the centre is +/- 750 mm. Reliable operation even when the loaded rear trailer is turned uphill is assured by two powerful hydraulic cylinders. The pivoting moment is thus 23.6 kNm (at an oil pressure of 200 bar). The steerable draw bar is mechanically locked for on-road driving in the one-man system.

Hitch
The draw bar of the Profi forwarding trailer is available in both top- and bottom-hitched versions. The bearings of the pivoting draw bar in the form of lubricatable and adjustable spherical articulated bearings ensure long-term operating safety of this component that is subject to heavy loading.

With a hydraulic self-oil supply, the powerful piston pump is, protected from damage, installed either above or below the drawbar in an encapsulated manner.

Brake system
Pfanzelt Pro forwarding trailers are equipped as standard with a braking system that acts on four wheels. Depending on the trailer size, the braking system is available as a hydraulic or pneumatic system. The compact diaphragm brake cylinders are completely encapsulated with a protective hood. This means that the brake system is protected from damage by branches or the gripper.

Permit for public roads
Travel on public roads is no problem for Pfanzelt machines, even when loaded. Depending on the equipment, a CoC document is available for 25 km/h. 

LED lighting with turn signal monitoring
The lighting system using LED lights is integrated in the frame. To protect the lights when working in the forest, these can be folded in.

Transport boxes
The high cut material box is suitable for the transport of light brush and treetop material, while the floor pan is ideal for the combined transport of branches and trunks. If this is permanently mounted on the vehicle, this protects the tyres from damage by the gripper.

Tool box and holder
Chain saws and fuel canisters can be practically and neatly stowed on the forwarding trailer. An additional storage bin is ideally suited for lashing belts, tools and other small items.

Drive systems

uniDRIVE (only P11, P13 and P15)
Pfanzelt`s hydraulic wheel drive uniDRIVE sets new standards in the price-performance ratio and is available for Pfanzelt Profi forwarding trailers (P11, P13 and P15).

• Maximum thrust per wheel up to 2 t
• Hydraulic supply by own oil supply or tractor hydraulics
• No wear during road travel by disconnecting the drive 

powerDRIVE
The new hydraulic wheel drive powerDRIVE made by Pfanzeltoffers a new wheel drive dimension. It is convincing in the forest and on the road.

• Maximum thrust 6.1 t
• Proportional drive for forward and reverse travel
• All brake systems available in combination with the wheel hub drive
• Automatic drive switch-off when braking
• Freewheel for wear-free road travel

The wheel hub drive is equipped with an electric control unit by which the driver can control the drive from the tractor`s cab. This allows the operator to switch between the simple drive for forward travel and reversing which is automatically switched off during braking and an uphill assist function.

Crane
Pfanzelt forestry cranes are designed for professional duty. The Pfanzelt crane range includes loading cranes in various lift classes. All Pfanzelt cranes have a larger lifting force and a higher pivoting moment to enable powerful pivoting of the crane – even uphill.
