Info

Silage trailer, forage harvester or round baler? Several independent Agricultural Institutes have compared the three process chains. Result: Silage trailers have a clear advantage when it comes to organisation, manpower requirements and diesel consumption. There is no noticeable difference in silage quality. 4 There are many advantages of silage trailers There is no patent remedy for deciding on the best crop procedure. The decision can only be made on an individual basis. Distances between field and farm, cropping areas, forage proceeds and available manpower are the most important decisive factors. However, as a rule of thumb it can be said that silage trailers are considerably more cost-effective than self-propelled forage harvesters if the distance between field and farm is less than 4.35 miles or 7 km. The silage trailer system presents the advantages of lower manpower requirement and simpler labour organisation. It is suitable for silage, green fodder, hay and straw harvesting. The advantage of the forage harvester is the high power, which comes in useful for cropping large parcels of land or if the distances between field and farm are large. However, this advantage only comes into play if transport logistics are suitable and if optimal compaction takes place at the silo. Round baling technology is user-friendly and is a good choice for small enterprises. The advantages of this procedure are low weather risk and flexibility of use. However, this procedure is not cost-effective for larger enterprises. Rule of thumb: it makes more sense to use silage trailers if you have more than 17.3 acres / 7 hectares of grassland.
Checking durability Pöttinger has established a modern test centre where the most demanding working conditions are simulated in order to determine maximum limits. The multi-axis shaker table (MAST) is the centre’s show piece. This simulates acceleration forces equal to those of a rocket launch and vibrations equal to those felt during an earthquake. Machines weighing upto 4.5 tonnes can be tested with this test facility, which is unique in the world of agricultural technology. The component part test facility contains highly sensitive and dynamic pneumatic and hydraulic cylinders: tools, frame constructions and chassis are tested for durability here.
