Features
Efficient mixing and cleanout
An optional 2-speed gearbox allows operators to tailor their mixing speed depending on the stage of the mixing and feeding cycle
Optimize mixing speed and achieve a thorough cleanout with optional high-screw rpm.
Achieve thorough cleanout at a quick rate. Two bi-pulse legs and the leading edge of the screw work together as three points of contact with the tub floor for ideal cleanout.
Convenient operation
Optimize rations and achieve more defined targets when feeding multiple pens with a 4-point scale that helps improve accuracy compared to a 3-point scale.
A standard folding ladder and viewing platform on the VS420 single-screw vertical mixer provides optimal visibility to the tub, compared to mixers without a platform.
A low loading height of 110 in (280 cm) on this machine allows for clearance in different barns and buildings, as well as loading with a tractor and most skid steers.
