This Komatsu 941.1 is a used processor harvester — sometimes referred to as a processing head carrier or harvester-processor — designed for mechanised timber harvesting operations. Processor harvesters are purpose-built forestry machines that fell, delimb, and buck trees to length in a single pass, and Komatsu is a globally recognised manufacturer of heavy equipment serving the construction, mining, and forestry industries.
The machine is equipped with a C144 processing head featuring a maximum opening of 29.5 inches and a maximum delimbing diameter of 21 inches, making it capable of handling a wide range of timber sizes. A Windows-based computer system manages measuring and cutting functions, offering strong accuracy in log-length production and straightforward operator control.
Power comes from a Sisu CTA84 Tier III engine rated at 290 horsepower, providing the performance required for demanding forestry terrain. The boom delivers 33 feet of reach, and the boom and cab rotate together through 315 degrees, giving the operator broad coverage without repositioning the carrier. The cab is described as spacious with excellent visibility, and it features an auto self-leveling system engineered for working on steep hillsides — an important capability in Pacific Northwest logging conditions.
The machine also includes an aftermarket kit with climbing cylinders, further extending its capability on challenging slopes. Many spare and support parts are included in the sale, which can be a meaningful advantage for buyers managing their own maintenance programs.
This 2011 machine is located in Washington State, USA, priced at $179,000, and is available on an FOB Washington basis.
