Machine cab for Alstor AB
The first time that Weland came into contact with Alstor, a Swedish manufacturer of forestry machinery, was at Elmia Subcontractor 2015. A collaboration started, which developed quickly. Weland commenced manufacturing most of the machine cab for the Alstor 833 in Weland’s fleet of machines. Sheet metal parts are laser cut and tubes in high-strength materials are folded, rolled and welded manually. The parts are ground and sand blasted, the cab is painted and then delivered to Alstor for assembly.
The collaboration has now expanded to include more components, such as the chassis for other parts of Alstor’s machines.

Harvester bars for Europe’s forestry industry
Weland and Foreq have collaborated since 2010. The collaboration started with them jointly developing fixtures to manufacture a series of harvester bars for harvesters. When the production started, 9000 harvester bars a year were manufactured. That figure has now risen to 32000 a year. Weland laser cuts the harvester bars in 6.2 mm cold-rolled sheet (42CRMo4). When the laser cutting is finished, a groove is milled around the bar that ensures the chain stays in place. After manufacturing at Weland, the harvester bars are forwarded to Foreq for hardening, painting and delivery to the end customer.
