Funnel Design Bale Chamber Efficient Material Flow

Smooth Bale Chamber Design A Vicon 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.

The conveyor slats are designed for quick and easy individual replacement.

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 de- termined 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.

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

UltraGlide strips reduce wear to a minimum. (Optional for 852)

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

Wide tailgate design offers easier loading of bales.

Tailgate Design for Easier Loading of Bales

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.

The hydraulically controlled tailgate offers a self-loading capability for easy loading of round or square bales without the need of a second tractor. The wide design of the tailgate makes it easier to load bales. A deep, curved design of the tailgate ensures that the bale is kept firmly inside the tailgate, while the net or twine is removed. The tailgate offers the ability to carry a second round bale for increased capacity. Total lift capacity of the rear door is 1200kg. A foldable bale retaining kit can be fitted to the end of the tailgate to ensure that the bales stay in position during operation.

Remote Control of Tailgate and floor chain On top of the control terminal located inside the tractor cab, the trailed bale choppers are equipped with an additional remote controlled switch for the floor chain and tailgate (option 852 & 856 Pro). The ability to operate these functions directly from the side of the machine saves valuable time during loading. Operating both tailgate and floor chain in safe distance from the moving parts, by using the remote control placed on the side of chamber.

The Versatile Chute Optimised Feeding and Bedding

The 4-Stage Swivel Chute The Shredex 4-stage swivel chute offers maxi- mised 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.

Finish the job Faster

A key aim of the Shredex 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.

35cm

Wide flywheel housing with capacity for more material to flow through, faster.

1. 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 Shredex 860 series to handle more material at higher speed and efficiently transport the material into the chute. 2. Beater Drum Design for More Productivity Shredex 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.

3. 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. 4. 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.

Hydraulic Activation of Shredder Rotor

Valuable time is lost, if you block chute and flywheel and manually need to unblock it. With the Shredex belt clutch solution, the shredder rotor can be run independently from the flywheel and disengaged when starting up the flywheel. This allows the flywheel to go to full speed before the shredder rotor is activated and starts feeding material into the flywheel housing. All done hydraulically from the tractor cab.

Two-drum solution designed to handle large volumes of material.

Two Shredding Drums for More Capacity Shredex 866 Pro can handle high volumes of material in short time. It features a two-drum shredding solution that aggressively cuts and guides the material towards the flywheel. This bale chopper is able to cut and move the material quickly and get the job done in less time. Shredex 866 Pro uses two smaller diameter beater drums, creating a more open design to handle larger volumes of material. Redesigned cutting teeth provide more aggressive cut and better guidance of material into the flywheel. This means more material can be quickly shred and fed into the flywheel housing.
