The Kuhn Profile Plus 1 DL Single-Auger Mixer has the largest capacity with the lowest height on the market! These vertical single auger mixer wagons offer a new solution for all farmers with difficult to access buildings and/or who need a variety of distribution configurations.
Compact size is the key feature of these PROFILE single auger mixer wagons. The tub geometry enables larger capacities at lower heights.
Features
Great mixing & distribution
Extra capacity!
The largest capacity with the lowest height on the market! These vertical single auger mixer wagons offer a new solution for all farmers with difficult to access buildings and/or who need a variety of distribution configurations.
Compact size is the key feature of these PROFILE single auger mixer wagons. The tub geometry enables larger capacities at lower heights, for example the 13 m3 model comes in at just under 3 m overall height.
Exclusive KUHN mixing auger!
The double-pitch angle of the auger enables quick breakdown of feed, no matter how full the machine already is.
To reduce power consumption, the PROFILE range is equipped with asymmetric knives which have a “self-cleaning” effect and also have a progressive-cutting knife edge for constant torque transfer. The continuous auger helix naturally moves the fodder from the bottom to the top of the tub for even mixing with no forced movements, reducing fuel consumption during the mixing process.
The auger material and design has been selected to provide maximum resistance to wear.
Tried and tested transmission and drive systems!
The machine transmission is made up of a two-stage bearing therefore even during breakdown of a whole bale, stress is absorbed.
The combination of the pre-stressed subframe and the solid auger base provides maximum resistance to the load bearing in the bottom of the machine.
The unit is fitted on a collar which reaches up to approximately half the auger height, thus protecting the transmission from lateral forces exerted on the auger.
Straw blowing
Compare the “door width / auger diameter” ratio
Save time with the PROFILE single auger range designed to accelerate distribution speed. The doors are 1100 mm wide, which is 60% of the auger diameter. This unbeatable ratio guarantees fast, regular distribution even when delivering fibrous rations. The tub can be equipped with one or more feed-out doors depending on the configuration of your buildings.
Turbine powered by the POLYDRIVE system
The straw-blowing turbine is driven by a disengageable belt, for flexible start-up and minimum noise during operation and the PTO does not have to be switched off to stop the turbine. The large diameter of the turbine (1540 mm) allows it to project straw to a range of 18 m.
The two-speed gearbox allows you to switch to a lower speed when bedding or working close range.
VENTIDRIVE
The patented asymmetric shape of the VENTIDRIVE straw hatch improves the straw suction and output of the PROFILE PLUS range.
Direct side feeding
A wide selection of possible combinations
For each member of the herd to get their maximum feed intake, the feed-out of the mixed ration must be evenly mixed and distributed across the whole length of the feed passage. It’s important to reduce competition for feed between livestock in the same pen. All animals must get their fair share of quality mixed rations!
When the animals return to the buildings after grazing, providing a homogeneous ration is the best solution to avoid them pushing and shoving for feed.
The PROFILE range features an impressive selection of feed-out solutions to ensure distribution of the rations in all the types of buildings. Whether you have sheds with no separate exit, troughs with retaining rims or very narrow feed passages, feeding tables on both sides of the passage requiring simultaneous distribution, or other constraints requiring distribution from the rear of the machine, you will find what you need in the PROFILE range.
Distribution chutes: express delivery
Distribution chutes can be fitted upon request to the right or left or rear central for feed delivery into all building configurations. The doors are the largest on the market (their width represents over 60% of the auger diameter).
The PROFILE mixer wagon is fitted with a deflection plate to avoid driving over the feed-out. The protective canvas prevents fodder projections beyond the trough.
Tilting conveyors to adapt to all types of troughs
The PROFILE range can be fitted with a large selection of hydraulically tilting conveyors to deliver feed to raised troughs. The tilting conveyors come in different lengths and are designed with PVC belts. They start up automatically when the hatch door is opened to prevent forage build-up at the tub outlet.
The PROFILE tilting conveyors are quiet, always clean and easy to service: simply adjust the belt tension on a regular basis.
