Trioliet will present its self-propelled and self-loading Triotrac mixer feeder wagon at the 2013 Livestock Event. Designed for farms where a mix for groups of 70-400 cows is desired, the machine is available with capacities of 14, 17 and 20 cubic metres.
The Triotrac self-propelled mixer feeder is extremely well suited to larger dairy or cattle farms that are looking for a high-precision, efficient method of feeding. In addition to its many configurable options, the major benefits offered by the Triotrac include: feed structure stays intact during loading; low power requirement by cutting-loading system; very high loading capacity, particularly when loading (tough) silage and round bales; high loading accuracy; perfect view on the cutting process; and very easy to use and easy to service.
The loading system consists of a cutting frame with a fixed and a moving knive. The integrated transport-roller throws the cut material on a wide, speed-adjustable conveyor belt. The cutting-loading system has a huge loading capacity, preserves the structure of the feed and saves considerably on fuel in comparison to a milling cutter. It leaves behind a smooth and tight silo face, preventing any chance of heating. The system is capable of loading all types of feed very quickly and accurately, including round and square bales.
The mixer feeder is equipped with Trioliet’s well-known two-auger system with integrated horizontal flow system. Special offset inserts between the mixing augers ensure rapid mixing in the horizontal direction. A cross conveyor at the front of the mixing chamber can be used to discharge the feed on the left or right side. Available discharge options include additional ZK discharge doors to the rear right and/or left, or a premix discharge door to the rear centre.
Both the discharge volume and discharge distance are fully adjustable and can be configured precisely. The hydrostatic drive mechanism features a working mode (0-20km/hr) and a transport mode (0-40 km/h). Both the front steering axle and the hydrostatic driven rear axle feature suspension for optimum comfort. Optional extras include four-wheel steering and four-wheel drive.
The electronic weighing system can be supplied with an optional software package, that can be used in combination with feed management programs for full control of feed costs.
The strong Trioform auger knives offer high wear resistance. Trioliet has a patent on the shape of the auger knives. These are shaped so that the knives are mounted in the best possible position – horizontal – in relation to the auger section. This ensures optimum cutting performance with minimum effort, which saves on fuel. The knives are self-sharpening and have a long life.
The height of the cabin can be adjusted hydraulically to ensure the best possible view of the work process. The 172hp diesel engine is mounted on a special rail, which allows any essential maintenance to be carried out quickly and easily.
