UNCONDITIONAL RELIABILITY AND PERFORMANCE

Supported by three widely space points which results in a level cut from top to bottom. UNLOADER (WITH OFFSET SUSPENSION ARMS) - UNLOADING MODE UNLOADER (WITH STRAIGHT ARMS) LOADING MODE HEAVY-DUTY AUGER On 215 Nordic models, the massive 10’’ heavy-duty auger is made of 1/4’’ thick flighting welded on a 4’’ O.D. tube for rigidity. It is double flighted at the chipper wheel end to allow the machine to run smoothly in frozen and hard-packed silage. Sharp hardened knives can be installed on auger to chop up the toughest material. Coupled to the gearbox by a 3-bolt flange coupling, the auger...

CHIPPER WHEEL A big oil-impregnated spherical bronze bearing provides years of trouble free operation. Being self-lubricating, it is maintenance free. The heavy chipper wheel is made of ductile iron to resist shocks. Six self-sharpening hardened steel blades (56 RC) remove silage that clings to the wall. COLLECTOR RING THREE PHASE COLLECTOR RING SINGLE PHASE COLLECTOR RING THREE PHASE COLLECTOR RING WITH 5 CONDUCTOR POWER CORDS Model for 3 phase system and 4 conductor power cords. Main motor and ring drive motor start and stop simultaneously. Single phase models with 2 slip rings and 3...

ACCORDING TO THE NATIONAL SILO ASSOCIATION, UNIFORM DISTRIBUTION PROVIDES MAJOR BENEFITS, SUCH AS: : • Uniform pressure on silo walls • More compact silage and better fermentation • Increased silo capacity • Better unloader performance It takes only minutes for one man to transform the Valmetal Nordic 215 from silo unloader to silage distributor. FIBERGLASS DISCHARGE CHUTE The deep-sided chute features a smooth and slippery finish inside. Silage flows smoothly through the door. A 48’’ replaceable stainless steel liner protects the high wear area. DRIVE RING The drive ring’s large diameter...

OFFSET SUSPENSION ARMS If you prefer a lateral style silage spreader, the Valmetal Nordic 215 can be ordered with offset suspension arms, therefore the unloader can be raised into the roof, completely out of the way allowing you to fill your silo to the very top without interference from the machine. No more worry about winch location, the Valmetal Nordic 215 can be equipped with a sturdy torque arm in replacement of the anchor chain to keep the machine from twisting. A telescoping chute support maintains proper alignment of the multiradius discharge chute for accurate silage stream....

DRIVE SYSTEM THE ROTARY PART OF THE UNLOADER IS SUPPORTED BY SELF LUBRICATING POLYMER BLOCKS, REQUIRING NO MAINTENANCE. RING DRIVE TRANSMISSION (GUARD REMOVED) INDEPENDENT POWER RING DRIVE A positive ring and gear drive system provides steady, even cutting under all conditions. Sprocket is driven by a 100:1 worm gear reduction on a shaft from the auger gear box. The ring drive torque limiter maintains accurate torque release and protects drive components. The independent power ring drive models require less power during distribution. A reliable industrial coupling between motor and the...

The weather and dust proof fiber enclosure does not rust. It protects the ammeter and all the other electrical components from often harsh and humid environment of the feed room. CONTROL PANEL For the unloader with independent ring drive system, an ON/OFF switch allows the operator to stop or start the ring drive motor independently from the main motor, this allows time to empty the auger and blower completely in order to avoid freeze-ups for easy next meal start-up. AUTOMATIC LOWERING CONTROL DUAL CONTROL PANEL The Valmetal Dual Control Panel combines all the characteristics and components...

OPTIONS HEAVY-DUTY WINCH The Valmetal winch features a heavy cast iron gear reducer. Its 50 to 1 gear ratio makes it easy to raise or lower the unloader. A reliable brake mechanism prevents accidental unwinding of the suspension cable. ELECTRIC TWO-SPEED HOIST Flip a switch to raise or lower your silo unloader. Same heavy-duty hoist with 1 HP reversing motor and extra reduction for maximum convenience in unloader control. Because of the 2 step motor pulley the speed can be changed in seconds without tools. It lowers at approximately 1’ per minute for better control, and raises the unloader...
