What is a feller-buncher? A feller buncher is a type of heavy machinery used in logging operations to cut and gather trees in a forest. It typically has a large arm that is equipped with a cutting head and a clamp to grasp tree trunks. A feller buncher can quickly and efficiently cut down trees and then transport them to a landing site for processing or loading onto trucks.
Why is it a good investment? Feller bunchers are designed to allow a single operator to cut and move trees quickly and efficiently. The feller buncher is typically used in areas where it is difficult to access lumber with other types of logging equipment. They are especially practical when used in combination with a grapple skidder and a processer at your landing site.
What kind of feller buncher is right for my operation? Wheel feller bunchers are easier to maneuver, while track feller bunchers tend to be more stable in slick or unsteady environments. You may prefer a chainsaw over a saw blade for your cutting head, depending on what types of lumber you are processing. Popular manufacturers of refurbished skidders available at Forestry First include Caterpillar, Deere, Weiler and Tigercat.
