A feeder device and method for feeding bars to a machine, for picking up and removing from a bundle at least one bar, to prepare it said bar for use in a working machine comprising a drawing assembly. The device comprises a first magnetic assembly for separating from the bundle at least an end segment of a plurality of bars and to dispose at least the end segments of the plurality of bars on a plane distanced with respect to the bundle, and a second magnetic assembly for picking up from the first magnetic assembly one bar at a time from the plurality of bars and to unload the bar in a desired release position. The device comprises an accumulation assembly for receiving in sequence from the second magnetic assembly a desired number of bars so as to form a store, and to transfer the desired number of bars simultaneously to the drawing assembly.
