Features
Gentle to your feed
The angled paddles of the VR-500 gently lift and tumble silages and grains, preserving fiber and texture for maximum palatability.
Superior mixing
Wiper edges ensure that even the smallest amounts of mineral or supplement are thoroughly mixed into the forage, delivering consistent, accurate rations and complete clean-out.
Low maintenance
No belts, no pulleys and only one chain in the drive system, resulting in very low maintenance demands. The single drive chain is equipped with an auto-tensioner and is protected in an enclosed oil bath cabinet.
Efficient
Low horsepower requirements and fast mixing times means the VR-500 keeps your energy cost low.
