Home |Step Feeder

Stepfeeders separate and deliver individual logs to a debarker, twin line or any other log processing equipment.

We offer single acting stepfeeders for lower production applications and double acting for high production environments.

We manufacture machines to handle a wide variety of diameters, from small stepfeeders for moving logs from 3” to 14” in a typical cedar mill to large machines capable of feeding 36” diameter hardwood logs.

Stepfeeders are made in two basic sizes: one for logs up to 10 feet long and one for logs up to 16 feet long. Variations from these lengths are offered as well, and units can be twinned for long logs. We have built specialty stepfeeders as long as 40 feet and for log up to 36” in diameter.

Standard stepfeeders have 5 steps. Machines with 4 to 10 steps or more are also available for specific applications.
