High driving stability and durability
“The AgroFarm Best Product Award highlights products that are particularly well suited for animal production in Russia“, SILOKING Export Manager Anna Perederii explained. “Therefore, this award for the new self-propelled is very important to us”, Anna Perederii continued.
The new self-propelled with 23 m³ and two vertical mixing augers has been designed for large farms with 500 dairy cows or more. It is the only self-propelled feed mixer of this size to be equipped with a 3-axle chassis with air suspension as a standard and optimal ground adaption. This unique selling point provides extremely high driving stability and durability, especially in the presence of bad road conditions. And the 3-axle chassis offers another advantage: Driving on road or other public place is possible even if the mixing hopper is fully loaded so that the hopper capacity can be utilised completely. The short distances between the axles and the standard 4-wheel steering (front and rear axles) make the machine particularly easy to use and manoeuvrable.
“Russia is an important market for us and we have seen a fast-growing demand for our self-propelled since 2013“, Georg Mayer, Managing Director of Mayer Maschinenbaugesellschaft mbH, said. “The repeated Best Product Award will additionally increase the Russian farmers' confidence and great interest in our products“, Georg Mayer continued.
SILOKING was again at the exhibition, represented through 23 dealers from all parts of Russia.
