High Volume Diet Feeders Extend Kuhn’s Euromix Range
31/08/06

Kuhn Farm Machinery has extended its UK diet feeder range with the addition of three new high volume twin vertical auger models to its Euromix 80 series, offering 18, 22 and 25m3 capacities.

As with the smaller single vertical auger models, these machines are relatively compact and are designed to chop long fibre products quickly and efficiently (e.g. big bale silage/hay) as well as mix and distribute complete diets. Fibre chopping capability is aided by the inclusion of seven serrated knives per auger, whilst overall chopping, mixing and discharge performance is a function of specific design features such as the polygonal body profile and the double pitch on the final quarter-coil of each auger.

An electronic weighing system is fitted as standard to allow ingredients to be metered in accurately and there is an option to fit a programmable function that will store up to 15 rations with as many as 15 ingredients per ration.

Discharge is via a durable PVC full width conveyor belt at the front of the machine that operates to either side and which can be offset to the right and left by 250mm. Optional equipment includes a tilting conveyor that can be fitted to extend the reach beyond the tractor outline, if required, and machines can also be adapted for rear discharge if required.

Euromix 80 series machines all have an inspection platform fitted as standard, allowing safe and convenient viewing of the mixing process. The larger twin auger models are suited to tractors in the 95 – 120hp range and are aimed at herds in the region of 90 – 200 cows.
