De-branching and Treetop Cutting. Branch cutting with saws specially constructed for helicopters is an advanced technology compared to manual cutting. Power companies using our method have found it saves time and is very cost efficient. The branch cutting can be done while the power is still on. Besides, this method saves workers from unnecessary risks and injuries. Helicopter based forest clearing for power lines are done with a saw that is suspended on a bar beneath the helicopter. The pilots are specially trained to navigate with the “bubble-door”.
