Log Handling Equipment & Excavator Attachment Solutions

Log handling plays an important role in forestry, timber harvesting, sawmill operations, biomass production, and wood processing facilities. Efficient movement, sorting, loading, and stacking of logs help improve productivity while reducing labor costs and material damage.

Modern excavator attachments provide powerful and precise log handling capabilities, allowing operators to safely manage timber in forests, log yards, ports, and industrial wood processing sites.

Port and export timber logistics

Excavator Attachments for Log Handling

Forestry Grapple

Forestry grapples are designed for gripping, lifting, and transporting logs of different sizes. They provide strong holding force and excellent visibility for efficient timber handling.

Rotating Log Grapple

A rotating grapple allows operators to precisely position and sort logs during loading, stacking, and processing operations, improving productivity and accuracy.

Sorting Grapple

Sorting grapples are widely used in sawmills and timber yards for separating logs by size, species, or quality while maintaining fast handling cycles.

Hydraulic Rotator

Hydraulic rotators provide continuous rotation capability, allowing smooth log positioning and reducing machine repositioning during handling tasks.

Excavator Loader Grapple

Loader grapples are suitable for bulk timber loading applications where high-volume material movement is required for transportation and storage operations.
