PONSSE SCORPION KING

The most balanced performance

The legendary PONSSE Scorpion King has been reborn. The paragon of usability and productivity is now even better than before. Raw power is transformed by the operator into the Scorpion King’s famously effective and precise harvesting. The operator remains central to the design of the PONSSE Scorpion King. Alert and comfortable operators can bring the most out of a machine, and the Scorpion King has a lot to offer.

PONSSE Future Cabin
The PONSSE Scorpion King is now even more refined, elegant and comfortable to use. The dignified cabin is something not previously seen in working machinery. The spacious interior and high-quality materials make you feel everything is in the right place and better than before. The best features are still there, simply improved. The completely new cabin features better visibility, safety, ergonomics and usability. They all contribute to the operator’s comfort and stamina. A rotating seat, capacious storage and dozens of other refinements add the finishing touches to a pleasant whole.

Scorpion C50 Crane

PONSSE C50

Completely new geometry and a unique two-arm lift boom moving over the cabin: excellent visibility and balance. Unbeatable movement geometry. Reach 10/11 m.

The powerful engine and strong hydraulics produce more than enough power, both in harvesting and transmission. Scorpion is available equipped with single-circuit hydraulics for changing harvesting purposes or as the Scorpion King and Scorpion Giant versions with double-circuit hydraulics, in particular, for clear cutting. The power, torque and fuel economy of the Mercedes-Benz / MTU engine are better than ever. The advanced transmission offers excellent handling and machine control – especially in demanding conditions and uneven terrain.
Scorpion Cabin The design of PONSSE Scorpion focuses on the operator – the operator is literally the centre point of the machine. The cabin is located in the middle of the machine, making it easier to see its extremities when working at dense thinning sites. What is more, the operator is situated in the middle of the cabin’s turning radius: when the cabin turns, the operator does not feel like being on a carousel. This has a significant impact on comfort and wellbeing at work. The unique crane solution offers an excellent visibility in every direction. Good visibility, also on both sides of the cabin, enables efficiency without any limits. The operator can select trees and felling directions and place trees into piles efficiently, producing the best harvesting quality.
PONSSE harvester heads are known for their high efficiency/weight ratios and robust structure, which are second to none. A broad harvester head range is available for Scorpion: choose H5 or H6 for thinning-based harvesting, or the sturdy H7 regeneration felling. H7 Euca and H77 Euca are efficient when harvesting eucalyptus.
Scorpion Stability

The incredible stability of PONSSE Scorpion comes from its eight wheels and active stabilization system. The patented stabilization system is based on detecting the crane direction and position, on the basis of which the rear frame is pressed in the working direction. Pressing the rear wheels against the ground and the weight of the rear frame improve the machine’s stability significantly when working on the side of the machine – also when the machine is moving.

The Cabin leveling, balances the cabin, also in difficult terrain. The frame of the machine consists of three parts linked by rotating joints. The cabin is located in the middle frame, which is kept hydraulically balanced, while the front and rear frames tilt according to the terrain. The pivot point of lateral leveling is very low, which doesn’t only keep the cabin straight, but also minimizes any lateral swaying and keeps the centre of mass at the machine’s centre line.
