The Titan UW is Horsch’s new chaser bin for the UK market and has been designed to meet two key requirements: it holds a full lorry load of grain, and can be emptied in just 90 seconds.
The Titan UW’s large hopper capacity of 34 cubic metres equates to 27-28t of wheat, and allows a full lorry load to be collected before unloading, therefore reducing the time and awkward manoeuvring associated with unloading directly into a lorry. With an output capacity of 18t/min, or 1,000t/hr, the Titan can quickly return to the combine.
The 600mm diameter auger conveyer can be folded and unfolded hydraulically from the tractor cab. When folded, the auger rests on a support across the front of the wagon, but without protruding ensuring transport width is less than 3m.
The Titan 34 UW features a telescopic axle as standard equipment that extends each tyre by 30cm. The increased track from 2.95m to 3.55m improves stability and reduces soil compaction as the trailer wheels run outside the tractor track. The large 900/60R32 tyres further reduce soil compaction.
An air-braking system and an optional integrated weighing system ensure that the Titan UW can be used with confidence. Access to the hopper and auger for cleaning or maintenance can be made via an integrated ladder from the drawbar platform and there are also steps down in to the hopper.
