New twin auger trailed<br />
mixer launched<br />
KUHN has filled the gap between its<br />
PROFILE S and L range of trailed mixer<br />
wagons with the PROFILE M series. Fitting<br />
neatly between the narrow- and widebodied<br />
machines, and aimed at mediumsized<br />
farms, the M series will be produced<br />
from 2023 onwards in five mixing capacities<br />
from 16 to 25m³.<br />
<strong>The</strong> 20m³ capacity machine has an overall<br />
height of less than 3 metres, making it well<br />
suited to housing with lower access. <strong>The</strong><br />
largest machine in the range at 25m³ can<br />
feed 200 cows in a single pass, making it<br />
perfectly positioned for the average UK<br />
dairy herd which is estimated at 212.<br />
Two feed out options are available, a<br />
cross conveyor in the CM model can be<br />
positioned at the front of the machine,<br />
and a chute or tilting slide conveyor is<br />
offered on the DM models. Plus models<br />
are specified with a straw blowing turbine<br />
capable of blowing 158kg of straw up to<br />
18 metres per minute, and all models can<br />
be upgraded by adding a selection of tub<br />
extensions.<br />
All models in the range feature KUHN’s<br />
patented 5 load cell weighing system that<br />
is well suited to both small and full-load<br />
mixtures. This is coupled to KUHN’s unique<br />
C-DRIVE system which, with a 1.10 metre<br />
distribution door, offers fast and wellbalanced<br />
distribution of forage.<br />
<strong>The</strong> twin augers can be specified with<br />
KUHN’s long-life K-NOX coating. This<br />
increases the life of the auger by up to six<br />
AGRICULTURE<br />
times by acting as a corrosion resistant layer<br />
to protect against the abrasion of acidic<br />
silica contained in forage.<br />
For farms looking to distribute forage<br />
into troughs or raised feeders, FLEXILIFT<br />
can be specified. This tilting cross conveyor<br />
will distribute forage evenly and does not<br />
protrude from the body of the mixer wagon.<br />
Wheel bearing<br />
replacement<br />
is not easy<br />
More content. More quality. More reliability.<br />
