Delimbers Upcoming Auctions

Forestry involves a wide variety of specific jobs, each of which requires its own tools, and each type of tool might be available in multiple forms. If the current task is a thinning operation with the goal of reducing crowding, then it may be acceptable to use less-refined machinery, but if you want to ensure the quality of the log throughout processing, then you’re probably looking for something more refined.

Delimbers are a great example of a tool that’s available in a variety of forms depending on the granularity of the work that needs to be done. There are still some classic forms in use today, like flail, gate, and pull-through options that fulfill that first use case, and then there are delimbers attached to excavators that provide you with a little more control. On top of those two options, there are also more compact and portable delimbers that fulfill the needs of smaller operations.

When looking for new and used delimbers for sale on MachineryTrader.com, you’ll find different models from John Deere, Caterpillar, Timberline, Link-Belt, and others. Deere and CAT typically sell delimbers attached to hydraulic excavators, but if you look for manufacturers like Peterson Pacific, for example, you’ll find some portable delimbers that can be pulled by vehicles.
