IMS mixing auger

Variability and strength for any purpose. Due to the patented knife adjustment system and the updated IMS auger design, the IMS mixing auger can be perfectly adapted to your specific conditions of use. The robust and low-maintenance angular gearbox ensures long service life even under challenging conditions.

All Strautmann mixer wagons will now come fitted with an IMS auger as standard. Its stepped design enables a good mix to be achieved more quickly. This reduces the mixing time of each load, which due to the number of mixes each day, creates a saving on labour, wear and fuel over time.

Feed funnel

A mineral feed funnel can be mounted at the mixing container on request. This makes it easier to fill in smaller quantities of fodder such as e.g. mineral feed or lime.

Robust bearings and gearbox

The heart of the IMS mixing auger is the very heavy duty and durable gearbox. Stability and long maintenance intervals are achieved by means of a large-sized pair of tapered roller bearings, double sealing and a large grease chamber.

Drivers cabin

In 2022, Strautmann's self-propelled mixer wagons received a completely redesigned driver's cabin, to optimise towards operator comfort. The changes provide more space within the cabin, the addition of a variably adjustable armrest, as well as a continuous window in the cabin ceiling has been extended to increase the operators view when milling at a greater height. 

Manual counter cutters

Two manually adjustable counter-cutters enable the processing of larger quantities of long-fibre fodder such as round and square bales.

Hydraulic counter cutter

The optional two hydraulic counter-cutters can be directly adjusted from the driver seat.

INNODUR stainless steel wear strips

Longer term, machinery repair and replacement costs can be reduced by requesting the INNODUR stainless steel wear strip to be fitted to the leading edge of the auger. This is a replaceable part, further extending machine lifetime.

Magnetic system

Highly effective magnetic separation of metallic foreign objects. The Strautmann magnetic system (optional extra) directly mounted at the mixing auger offers optimum health protection for your high-yield cows. The system is mounted such that it is in direct and close contact with the mixed fodder, thus working very effectively.

DISCHARGE OPTIONS FOR SF MODELS

Front crossover conveyor

Variable conveyor speeds achieved by means of different motors or direct adjustability enable the fodder discharge width to be adapted as far as right up to directly in front of the feed fence. A unique lattice bar roller as return roller for the crossover conveyor prevents the fodder from piling up between the roller and the conveyor. An optional hydraulic side shift of the conveyor gives added flexibility.

Fast bedding roller

The cleaner and more germ-free the cubicle, the healthier the animals. The ideal litter materials are straw, peat, sawdust and lime. After the mixing process in the container has been finished, the litter is spread up to the head region of the cubicles via the drum – comfortably and reliably for maximum animal comfort and udder health. Only in combination with electrical operation.

Rear discharge

Discharge in narrow dead-end feeding passages. For comfortable feeding even in narrow dead-end feeding passages, side doors behind the wheels are being used. The fodder is loosely discharged on one or both sides behind the wheels.

Rear crossover conveyor

Variable conveyor speeds achieved by means of different motors or direct adjustability enable the fodder discharge width to be adapted as far as right up to directly in front of the feed fence. A unique lattice bar roller as return roller for the crossover conveyor prevents the fodder from piling up between the roller and the conveyor.

Rear centre discharge

For preparation of premixes or central fodder discharge on the feeding table, Strautmann offers a rear centre discharge.

Crossover conveyor extension

For higher troughs, a 1m long conveyor extension adjustable in height can be mounted at the side of the crossover conveyor.
