Kuhn Launches Latest Twin Vertical Auger Diet Feeder
20/09/07

Kuhn Farm Machinery has further expanded its Euromix vertical auger diet feeder range, which now includes single and twin auger models as well as a self-propelled machine.

Kuhn Euromix 1870

The latest, which was to be launched at the abandoned Dairy Event 2007, is the 18m3 twin vertical auger Euromix 1870, which has a relatively low power requirement (5 hp per cubic metre) due to the shape of the body and position of the augers. Each auger is equipped with seven knives and there are two counter-knives positioned symmetrically in the body to provide effective chopping of fibre, including big bales.

High auger speed (29 rpm) ensures quick mixing and simultaneous vertical and horizontal flow means that micro-ingredients are thoroughly incorporated into a light and airy mix.

Electronic weighing is a standard feature and a programmable system is available as an option. Front right hand chute discharge is standard and a tilting conveyor is available as an option. The machine is pre-engineered to allow conversion for three further discharge doors (front left and either rear corner). This machine is also controllable directly from the tractor’s in-cab spool valves, due to a hydraulic hose inter-connection.

The Euromix 1870 has a starting price of £29,483 and extends Kuhn’s twin vertical auger 70 series range, which already includes 16, 20, 22, 25 and 27m3 capacity models.
