The situation
A forwarder spends its day hauling full loads of timber over soft and uneven ground. The engine works whenever the machine moves, and the crane takes its share at every stop. On a long shift, fuel per load is one of the biggest cost items.
The other cost item is downtime. An AdBlue fault far from the road can put the machine into derate, and every stop for the after-treatment is a load that does not reach the landing.
What we did
This 1110G runs the Phoenix L33, the current John Deere engine controller generation. The ECU was read and the file developed for this software version.
- Eco: calibration aimed at the working rpm range of the forwarder – steady pull with a full load at lower fuel consumption, within the limits of the stock hardware.
- AdBlue/SCR: dosing and level monitoring deactivated in software, related DTCs and the derate strategy handled. No dependence on DEF supply in the forest.
Checksum corrected and the file written to the ECU.
The result
A forwarder that pulls full loads efficiently, without AdBlue warnings and without derate. For the forestry contractor this means less fuel per load, fewer unplanned stops and a working day that is planned around the timber. The file was developed individually for this ECU and software version.
