Self-propelled mixers Autospire CLASSIC

Detailed description

Mélangeuse-automotrice Autospire nouvelle version

The Autospire Classic range of self-propelled vertical auger silage unloader is a simple and reliable machine that helps to minimise the number of tractors and loaders on the farm and reduce the amount of time spent on daily feeding. These self-propelled mixer wagons, with a left rear feed door as standard, offer a more compact solution than conveyor belt machines. For individual farmers, the travel speed is limited to 25km/h and all hydraulic functions are coupled directly to the engine.

Mélangeuse-automotrice Autospire nouvelle version

The Autospire has a high ground clearance and can be equipped with 4-wheel drive and 4-wheel steering in order to be able to handle all groups of animals, regardless of the location of the buildings, the climatic conditions and the state of the farmyard.

NEW DESIGN FOR GREATER COMFORT

Several features have been added for additional operator comfort including a new ergonomic command arm and joystick, the option of a new pedal mode for driving and a new layout of the control screens. Operating comfort and visibility have also been enhanced with the addition of a new 360° panoramic glass cab for optimum working conditions and safety. The new cab is fitted as standard with a comfortable air seat, air conditioning, a sun visor and a front defrosting window, display, to retain the visibility benefits of the new cab.

NEW FEED MANAGEMENT SOFTWARE

Version 8 of the DTM feed management software, with its new, more intuitive interface for precise remote programming of recipes and even distribution of rations.

NEW MULTIFUNCTION JOYSTICK

The new multifunction joystick provides simple control of the main functions from the commande console, such as FNR steering, arm lift and distribution belt offset to the left or right side. It is ergonomically designed, with the control console integrated into the pneumatic seat with a suspended cab. The control screens, such as the camera, returns and the weighing tablet are easily accessible from the driver’s seat. Our new generation of self-propelled mixers incorporates automatic control systems to make the operator’s day-to-day work easier, with functions such as automatic centreing of the distribution belt and opening of the mill cover.

HOMOGENEOUS QUALITY RATIONS

Material can move easier in a smooth rounded tank because it is not subjected to stress.As a result, the ration is mixed naturally and more effectively. The power required for a mix is reduced to a minimum. The smooth flared shape means that a homogeneous mixture can be obtained faster. The round design of the tank automatically extends the life of the tank.

A STEPPED AUGER TO ENSURE AN AERATED MIX

The Lucas G stepped augers have a unique form which means that the ration can be cut and ventilated by the steps which ensures the rations are blended properly for optimal proportioning.In standard, augers come with 6 knives. It is possible to have 8 or 10 knives for each augers, adjust the angle to increase aggresivity and thus cut the fibre faster. The auger knives are tungsten carbide coated and are reversible to increase the lifetime.To speed up the cutting process, the cut-off plates with programmed sequences are inversed to facilitate blocking the fibre at the bottom of the tank.

3 AUGERS SPEEDS TO ADAPT TO EACH PHASE IN THE MIXING PROCESS

The Autospires PERFORMANCE are fitted with a series of 3 auger rotation speeds in order to adapt to the different feed material and to ensure distribution speed remains constant. The augers are hydrostatically driven which ensures easy and comfortable use. - Smoothing speed 1-10 rpm - Smoothing speed 2-23 rpm - Fibre speed and emptying 45 or 60 rpm

ADJUSTABLE MILL SET UP

Depending on the material loaded, the operator can change the speed of the mill as well as the speed of the loading conveyor with a single touch of the screen via the XPA Display terminal. This function allows for the best possible handling of the different types of loaded products. Our default settings: - Concentrate speed: 50 % maximum. mill + 40 % max. conveyor - Silage speed: 80 % maximum. mill + 80 % max. conveyor - Fibre speed: 100 % maximum. mill + 100 % max. conveyor

A UNIQUE MILL SHAPE

The shape of the mill, coil design and position of cutting sections have been studied for better unloading and to reduce the negative effects of recycling (time wasting and shelling). The shape and angle of the coil means that the feed material is gathered, recentred and placed in the middle of the conveyor for increased output. The sections are placed behind the coil to cut the produce without upsetting the loading flow.

HIGH PERFORMANCE AND ADAPTED SILAGE UNLOADING

The loading stage is a critical when preparing mixture. The output rate of the mill must be sufficient and the quality of the raw material preserved.The mill Ø625 mm is is fitted with 54 curved and reversible sections (5.5 mm thick mounted 2 by 2) and has a working width of 2 m to ensure that all types of feed can be unloaded.
