Wood Crosscutting Process Analysis for Circular Saws

The article deals with measuring the rolling resistance of two tires Mitas TS04 6.00-16 6PR and Mitas TS05 10.0/75-15.3 10PR on a concrete surface. The measurement was performed in a soil test channel which had to be adjusted for the given purpose. The tires were compared with each other based on the results of the rolling resistance coefficient calculation. The obtained individual values were approximated by linear functions and subsequently subjected to a statistical analysis—a test of the agreement of the regression coefficients of the two basic sets. The results of this analysis showed that there is no statistically significant difference in the values of the achieved rolling resistance coefficients of the monitored tires, although there are differences between them in geometric dimensions and load capacity. The achieved results are basically confirmed by the results of other authors, especially by the fact that on a solid surface the values of the achieved rolling resistances can be reduced by increasing the inflation pressure of the tire. This increase cannot be spontaneous; however, it is always a compromise among the resistances achieved, the life of the tire and its adhesive properties.

The article deals with the research of operational reliability of forest felling machines with the method FMEA (Failure Mode and Effect Analysis) and its implementation for observed machines in the organization. Forwarders 810D by John Deere were chosen for this research. The research was realized in real operational conditions. Application of the FMEA method allows flexibility in case of unexpected situations and optimization of human potential abilities. FMEA tool is a tool preventing outages operational reliability and preventive tool for ensuring the maintenance of facilities. This paper explores and verifies the operational reliability theory in practical real-world conditions, resulting in a reduction in operating (variable) costs, minimization of failures and readiness and increased performance of observed machines.
