Forest- planting machine with automatic supply of seedlings MLA-1A"ILANA" (modernized)

The automatic forest-planting machine is intended for planting seedlings of the coniferous type of glades with number of stumps of 600 per hectare, as well as on cleared spaces.

Hard and health damaging labour of the workers, putting seedlings into grasping devices of the planting machine, has been replaced by an automatic unit. The design of this automatic device for feeding seedlings is simple and does not require high skilled personnel, servicing the unit.

Charging of the belt cassetes with seedlings is carried out beyond the cultivated site.

The complete charging of the machine with a set of cassettes with seedlings and mobility of the unit makes possible operator's independent planting of seedlings on small forest sites.

Introduction of the automatic machines into the forestry production helps essentially improve working conditions of the servicing personnel and reduce production hazards. This is especially important when the work is carried out on unstubbed glades and on the radionuclides contaminated lands.
