Delimber

Delimber is used to remove big branches from trees that have already been cut. The delimber assembly is mounted on on a tracked excavator with the help of powerful hydraulics. The pull-through type is the latest and most commonly used delimber. Trees were pulled through the delimber by a knuckleboom loader. This heavy duty equipment has a set of delimbing knives mounted on a frame that completely removes the limbs from trees.
