This Weiler H457 is a used processor harvester — sometimes called a processing harvester — a purpose-built forestry machine designed to delimb, measure, and buck felled trees into log lengths in a single pass. Weiler is a well-established manufacturer of heavy forestry and land-clearing equipment, building machines that serve the logging, timber harvesting, and biomass industries.
This 2020 machine is being offered from Michigan, USA, priced at $255,000, and represents a single-owner, single-operator unit with approximately 7,700 hours of use. Power comes from a CAT C9 engine rated at 298 horsepower, providing the sustained output demanded by continuous processing work. The machine weighs approximately 73,000 pounds and rides on a CAT-size undercarriage that is original to the machine, with one new front idler already installed.
The unit is equipped with a Southstar QS500 processing head, which is reported to be in good working condition and fitted with all standard equipment. The Southstar QS500 is a purpose-built harvesting head designed to handle the delimbing, measuring, and cutting functions central to processor harvester operations. This is a consignment listing, and viewings are by appointment only.
