Overview
Duo models with 2 or 3 vertical augers – suitable for high payload and in various configurationsm they adapt perfectly to the farm´s demands.
With the 2 or 3 Turbo Augers, Duo models are high volume, high capacity machines suited to large herds, even when transporting material large distances. Models 12-28m3 feature 2 vertical augers and models 36-45m3 have 3 vertical augers. The heavy duty transmission is designed for long-life under heavy usage situations – twin or triple gearboxes with continuous drive reduce drive shaft problems and 2-speed gearbox as standard to match auger speed and cutting/mixing/discharge process. The unique box frame carries 6 load cells and a strong axle suspension. Tridem axles (standard on 40m³ and 45m³ models) with two steering units provide maximum payload and safe operation with low wear on tires and machine. Suited for herds of any size.

Specifications
Two Turbo Augers
- The Turbo Auger height is adjusted to the hopper height providing perfect auger-hopper ratio for accurate and quick mix.
- Turbo Auger with slow revolutions provide a gentle mix with very low power consumption.
- Adjustable Turbo Auger speed.
- The conical hopper shape optimizes feed flow back from top to hopper bottom, providing fast processing and reduced power consumption.
- Robust load cells ensure accurate weighing – only what is in the mixing hopper is weighed.
- Multiple adjustable hard-coated XS knives.
- For longer durability Siloking Kverneland has developed SILONOX lining as an option for the mixing augers and hopper walls, where most wearing occurs.
Gearbox and Driveline
- Standard with planetary gearbox with helical bevel gear drive, the heavy duty transmission is designed for efficiency and durability, even when operating at full load.
- The relationship between gearbox and auger is carefully balanced for the optimum mixing result – high mix quality in the shortest possible time.
- All elements of the transmission – auger connection, planetary gearbox, 2-speed gearbox & drive-line – match the requirements of excellent mix results with minimum down-time.
Weighing System
- Precise control of ration components is needed when preparing feed rations.
- Siloking Kverneland vertical mixers are fitted with a highly accurate weighing system as standard.
- This means that exact quantities of materials can be loaded – essential for the preparation of accurate feed rations.
- Featuring multiple weigh bars mounted between hopper and separate chassis, this quality system offers very accurate control of even small components during the loading of the machine.
- Clearly visible some distance from the machine, the simple scale is standard with a fully programmable system as an option.
Discharge Options
- The vertical mixer range can be adapted to suit a wide variety of barns or feed troughs.
- From feeding onto the floor or over high feed barriers, there is a discharge solution available.
- If needed a conveyor option can be fitted to transport material away from the door.
- Simple discharge doors – single or multiple per machine.
- Cross conveyor for discharge to either side of the machine – can be positioned at the front or rear of the machine.
- Hydraulically driven conveyors, fitted onto cross conveyor or direct onto discharge door, suitable for transporting material or into troughs.
- TwinLift conveyor – available for Compact 10-14 and Duo 14T-26. Can disharge in any position.
Straw Blower
- The straw blower option is available on models Compact 10-T–14m³, Duo 16-18m³, Duo Avant 14-20 and Duo New Generation.
- The straw blower option offers a precise discharge of the straw inside the animal buildings.
- The 1.55m diameter front mounted flywheel comes from the Kverneland 850 series Bale Choppers – known for its´ robust design and quality distribution of straw.
- This system is mechanically driven from the tractor and located direct on the front of the machine, without the need for feed drums or conveyors.
- Drive to the flywheel is independent of the drive to the augers, supporting each phase of the process – loading, cutting, mixing and discharge.
- Straw is distributed by the side chute, offering straw blow up to 20m
Two Speed Gearbox
- Standard with heavy-duty planetary gear drive to auger and 2-speed gearbox, allowing accurate control of auger speed during cutting, mixing and feed-out.
- 2-speed gearbox can be changed manually or via hydraulic control (option).
Siloking Kverneland Wireless
- All information available at a glance.
- Weighing system controlled from the tractor cabin.
- Wireless – no disturbance of hydraulic functions.
- All information is stored centrally in the machine box.
- Weight information is always available – even in the silo.
- Control your weighing system from the loading vehicle.
- Feeding Management Software gives you full control over loading precision and feed consumption.
- The SWT package includes adding weighing system.
- The SWE Package combines programmable weighing system with electro-hydraulic control.
