Vision Schuitemaker: the mineral cycle is the starting point for efficient and durable agricultural entrepreneurship. 2 | 3 Trouble-free manure processing More than 65 years ago, Schuitemaker started building manure spreaders for processing litter manure. In the 1950’s, Schuitemaker launched the well-known SMS3000, which was patented in five countries. This resulted in a healthy growth for the company, where still the priority is to take into account the wishes of our customers.

ROBUSTA The Robusta pumptankwagon Schuitemaker manufactures pumptankwagons under the brand name of Robusta. The tankwagons are characterized by their high level of stability and respective quality. All the tanks are full bath galvanized and depending on the model they are colour painted. This ensures a longer lifetime of the tanks. The tanks are assembled in combination with a strong chassis, this creates a very stably machine. This stability will be necessary in case a slurry injector get assembled behind the tank. The Robusta pumptankwagons can be supplied in 3 models. One with the function...

4 | 5 Börger rotary lobe pump Schuitemaker uses Börger rotary lobe pumps for the Robusta tank line. Rotary lobe pumps ensure an optimum filling of the tank, with all sorts of liquid manure, and a very accurate rate of dosage of the manure. To support the capacity, a turbo-filler can be fitted in the slurry arm as an option. This increases the capacity strongly. The standard cutting filter can be opened hydraulically, from the control box. A real timesaver for not having to leave the cabin all the time. In addition, the cutting filter has a cleaning comb and ejector/slide block so that contaminants...

Manure dosage and control box The Robusta tanks are standard fitted with an 8 speed reduction gearbox which is used to regulate the dosage of the manure gift. The amount of manure delivered depends on the speed. Schuitemaker has the option for a pump drive that it is independent of the speed: a hydrostatic pump drive. The drive has its own closed oil system to ensure that the manure pump is used to its maximum advantage. The hydraulic pump drive is controlled by a Schuitemaker Profi 100 electrical-hydraulic control. The Profi 100 is easy and simple to operate. Drawbar To ensure optimum driving...

Vario track axle Ever since 1996 Schuitemaker has been using the vario track system on her single axle tanks as an option. The Vario track gives an unique opportunity to widen the track of the tank. Using the vario track system, the wheels of the tank do not run in the tracks of the tractor. Advantage of this track system is retaining soil structure. The wheels are pushed hydraulically outwards on both sides of the tank using the parallelogram scissor principle, through which each side increases its length with 80 cm. Besides this system, Schuitemaker has optional an axle with a vario track of...

Chassis The tanks with multiple axles are standard fitted with hydraulically suspended axles. Because of this, stability and comfort are assured in the field and on the road at high speed. The tanks are fitted with a hydraulic forced steered axle and hydraulic brakes. Air brakes with braking power control (ALB) on the suspended axles is optional. Tires air pressure exchange system A tires air pressure exchange system can be fitted to the Robusta tanks as an option. By using this system it is possible to set the pressure per square inch at a lower level. Advantage is that the tanks can continue...

3 point lifting system All Schuitemaker tanks are fitted with a heavy-duty universal 3 point lifting system. The 3 point lifting system is mounted on the chassis in this way there is no pressure on the body of the tank during the dosage of manure. The lifting system is very easy to operate by the control box. An optional quick locker system can be placed behind by the lift system so that the coupling and uncoupling of manure slurry injectors is simple to do. During the dosage of manure it is possible to switch from pressure injection to non-pressure injection. In addition, the pressure can be...

Type Robusta Tank diameter Track width Wheel base Type axle Vario-Axle Vario-Axle There is an increasing demand for high-capacity tanks. Main condition according to Schuitemaker is the importance of the slurry tank remaining properly manageable, even under the most difficult circumstances. Torsionfree steering of all axles is a unique feature of the slurry tank thanks to its unique and innovative design. Main advantage is less wear of the tyres and less damage on the land. The tridem tank, fitted with a variable tyre pressure system, can also be used as a injector tank. The tandem, tridem and...
