Crane operation in the forest scene

The Hackthor from JENZ STP files on the forest landing. The crane moves from the sticks; limits are still the placeholder values until the 30 October figures are rigged.

The crane rigged on the real CAD

Screen recordings from the CAD Workbench: JENZ STEP files turned into a model with the crane on its real hinge axes. The same pipeline replays when JENZ sends a new CAD revision.

Chipper separation, coloured by movement

Renders of the raw CAD import from 30 October. Each colour is a part that will move: infeed, upper roller, drum, blower, splitter and the grapple split. Grey stays static. These are being rigged now on JENZ's movement figures.
