The Kesla harvesters form a comprehensive range of single grip harvester heads, from 7 tonne wheeled vehicles to 25 tonne tracked vehicles. In designing the collection, usability has been the primary focus: the best materials and components have been chosen. Ease of maintenance and productivity in all circumstances have been given priority.
Kesla also supplies tracked harvesters. We offer our customers installation services, forestry equipment, measuring instruments, the Xtender boom extension and a harvester head appropriate to the customer’s excavator.
