PS8 Post Peeler

BrochureSpec Sheet

The PS8 is available in either stationary or portable models and will peel posts from 3" to 12" in diameter (7.6 cm - 30.5 cm) and 6' to 12' in length (1.8 m - 3.6 m). This productive machine can peel up to 2,000 eight-foot (2.4 m) posts during an eight-hour shift. With optional infeed and outfeed supports, the unit can accommodate longer lengths. An outfeed is available for stationary units to transfer and index posts onto a transfer chain or bunk. All Morbark post peelers use a split peeling head with carbide-tipped cutterhead teeth to remove bark and knots and planer knives to provide a smooth surface with only one pass through the machine.
