FUNNEL DESIGN BALE CHAMBER EFFICIENT MATERIAL FLOW

Smooth Bale Chamber Design A Kverneland hallmark is the funnel design bale chamber. Special attention has been directed towards the chamber design, to ensure an efficient flow of material from chamber to drum. The inside of the chamber is smooth and clean for an unrestricted material flow. Material is guided towards the beater drum more evenly and it is easier to empty the chamber when finishing the bales.

Bale chamber funnel design ensures smooth flow of material towards the shredding drum.

KVERNELAND 850 AND 860 SERIES

Floor Conveyor The floor conveyor consists of a hydraulically driven chain and slat floor conveyor with variable speed and reversing facility. The ratio between floor conveyor and shredding drums is carefully designed to ensure smooth material flow. The floor conveyor runs on two wear strips made of special ‘UltraGlide’ plastic material to reduce friction and increase chain life. Slat spacing has been specially determined to ensure consistent and even feed to the shredding drums. The strong conveyor slats are designed for quick and easy individual replacement. A rotating marker allows the operator to see the speed and direction of the floor conveyor from the tractor seat. The conveyor has an enclosed lower tray to ensure no spillage or crop loss.

UltraGlide strips reduce wear to a minimum.

V-belt drive – low maintenance and quiet drive of the drum.

VERSATILE SWIVEL CHUTE

OPTIMISED FEEDING AND BEDDING

The 4-Stage Swivel Chute The Kverneland 4-stage swivel chute offers maximised comfort and is a cost saving solution with less waste and more efficient bedding and feeding process. The swivel chute operates in 4 stages which optimises the blowing distance when bedding. Depending on the material and conditions of the barn it can blow up to 18/20m, which allows bedding of the most distant corners of the barn. Designed with a turning radius of 260°, the system enables easy access to even difficult reachable spaces for complete bedding. The 4-stage movement also optimises feeding performance in flat or high troughs, without blockage, even with long fibrous material from round bale silage or hay.

260º

2-Speed Gearbox for Bedding or Feeding Configurations

To provide the correct flywheel speed for bedding and feeding the bale choppers are fitted with 2-speed gearbox. The gearbox speed is adjusted by the handle on the side of the machine. • At lower speed the flywheel ensures a metered flow of silage or hay for feeding. • At high speed a powerful blow for the most efficient distribution during bedding is ensured.

Easy shifting from bedding to feeding on the 2-speed gearbox.

FINISH THE JOB FASTER

A key aim of the next generation Kverneland 860 series is to provide more capacity by shredding the material faster. Flywheel housing and blowing paddles have increased in dimensions to increase performance. This means more material is fed faster into the flywheel, finishing the bale at an impressive pace.

Wider Flywheel Housing for More Capacity The extended dimensions of the flywheel housing and blowing paddles increase performance of the bale chopper. This enables the new Kverneland 860 series to handle more material at higher speed and efficiently transport the material into the chute. Beater Drum Design for More Productivity Kverneland 860 series use a smaller diameter beater, creating a more open design to handle larger volumes of material. Redesigned grippers provide more aggressive guidance of material into the flywheel. Improved Flywheel Design 1.55m diameter flywheel with 6 specially angled blowing paddles, designed for transporting large amount of material. Bolt-on paddles ensure easy replacement in case of damage. Wider Swivel Chute Design Size and area of exit from flywheel housing to swivel chute has increased to match the extended dimensions of the flywheel housing. This support higher capacity and reduces risk of blockage.
