Abstract (en)

[origin: EP0591656A1] The present invention relates to a tree-netting apparatus, in which the tree is drawn through a funnel (10), whilst a net (11) laid round the funnel is at the same time drawn off from the funnel and the tree is netted. According to the invention, a gripper (12) which grasps the stem end of the tree is provided on a slide (14) movable in the longitudinal direction. Moreover, there is provided a measuring device (21, 23) which measures the length of the tree during the netting operation and which transmits it to a computer. Subsequently, via a marking device provided on the slide (14), the tree is marked according to the affiliation of the measured length to a specific length class. <IMAGE>
