Verti-Mix

4Argumentsthat persuadeGearboxThe drive of the mixing auger consists of a veryrobust angular gear with planetary reduction.This leads to an optimised durability evenunder adverse conditions. The bearing ofthe auger consists of a solid body with aforged driveshaft and a big dimensionedtaper roller bearing taking in the leverageforce of the free standing auger.The durable oil and grease assures a verylow amount of maintenance and wear.„Vario“ mixing augerThe mixing auger and the container are perfectly matched to produce every fodder mix fast, preciselyand with low power requirement. The round form of the container supports a fast mixingand at the same time keeps the wear as low as possible. The heart of every foddermixing wagon is the mixing auger.The “vario” mixing auger developed by Strautmann has adjustable knifes andassures a fast and homogeneous mixing of all fodder components. Becausethe knives are positioned in inwards direction, the power requirementdecreases and a fuel saving of up to 25% can be realized. An additionalscraper at the bottom of the mixing auger assures a fast andeven unloading of the mixed fodder. Different types of cuttingknifes for a variety of operational conditions are available asoption.Counter cuttersThe mixing wagons are equippedwith two manual counterknives that simplify the cuttingof round and cubic bales. Asan option the counter knivescan also be operated hydraulicallyfrom the driver seat.Mineral feed funnelIf required a mineral feedfunnel can be mounted to thecontainer. This makes it easierto fill of smaller quantities ofconcerntrates like minerals orlime.Overflow ringFor the handling of round andsquare bales an overflow ringis recommended. The ringavoids fodder being pushedout of the container whilebales are chopped.Optionally a internal (no increaseof the height of thewagon) or a external ring(height of the wagon increasesby 150 mm) can be mounted.Extensions for the containerwith a height of 150 mm arealso available.
