GT Bunning & Sons is now offering a hybrid (HY) horizontal beater and spinning disc (HBD) option to increase output and improve material shredding on its smaller Lowlander spreaders.
The Lowlander 105, 120 and 150 MK4 HBD spreaders are equipped as standard with a 1,500mm-wide beater design. However, users looking for greater output from these machines can now choose a 1,830mm HY beater option that uses the same processing design fitted to the larger, widebody spreaders from the Lowlander range.
Bunning’s UK and Ireland sales manager, Ben Johnson, said the upgrade was a useful addition for operators requiring increased output, but wishing to retain the benefits of a smaller machine.
“Upgrading to the widebody beaters allows greater output from a smaller spreader and means more material can be processed onto the discs than with the standard system,” he added. “The increased width of the beaters can deliver a more even flow of some products at high rates, which, in turn, can give wider and more consistent spread patterns.”
Bunning’s HBD range uses horizontal beaters to break down material before spreading via 1.1m wide spinning discs. The design allows a wide variety of products, such as farmyard manure, compost, chicken litter and sewage sludge, to be spread accurately to 30m-plus.
