THE ROTO-MIX professionals know that quality feed means increased consumption, therefore, higher production levels. With ROTO-MIX Forage Express Mixers you reduce fines, minimize shrinkage, and eliminate dead spots. The gentle tumbling action mixes fragile flaked and high-moisture ingredients without grinding, resulting in a fluffier, more nutritional and palatable ration.

Fresh Fluff - This means big nutritional advantages for lower cost of gain or increased milk production. ROTO-MIX consistently produces premium quality feed by lifting the ingredients past the lower auger's wedge point, resulting in a fresher, fluffier ration that insures increased consumption.

More Leaf - The gentle tumbling action with the ROTO-MIX system mixes fragile ingredients, such as hay leaves, flakes, and high-moisture grain, without causing excessive damage. More leaf in the mix means more protein to your herd.

Total Mixed Rations - Our thorough mixing action eliminates dead spots and corner pile-up giving you a consistent balance of nutrients from the first pound of feed to the last.

The ROTO-MIX Hay Processor keeps the hay out of the mixing chamber until the knives on the top auger separate...not beat...the hay. The result is hay, with leaves intact and distributed evenly into the mix, resulting in fewer incidents of acidosis.

More Nutritious Conventional auger mixers crush, grind and mash all ingredients, which create more fines in the bunk... a waste of your feeding dollars. The ROTO-MIX tumbling action mixes all ingredients, even fragile and flaked, without excessive breakage.

Fines With the ROTO-MIX mixing system there's less grinding of flaked, and high moisture grain, pellets or other ingredients so you'll have less fines in the, bunk which means less wasted feed... giving you the most for your feed dollars.

Shrinkage Our unique ability to process baled hay, as you need it results in less wind shrinkage when loading and processing. You'll get the most out of your feed ingredients.

Supplemental Flexibility The thorough mix provided by ROTO-MIX eliminates unpleasant tastes associated with certain supplements, allowing you more options when choosing feed supplements.

Floating Lower Auger Floating lower auger available with hay processor option relieves pressure when wet or grassy chunks of hay are inadvertently loaded into the mixer.

Flared Side The flared side allows feed to tumble out of the rotor speeding up the mixing action and reducing the chance for feed to get trapped inside the rotor.

Clean-Out The forward pitch rotor design, adjustable UHMW wiper blades, and the rotation of the lower auger quickly and efficiently clean-out the mixing chamber.

Hay Processor Adding hay to the ration is easy and convenient. Place the hay in the Hay Processor on the unit and let it do the work of separating the hay and distribute the long stemmed material into your mix. The result is hay, with leaves intact and the stem not continually cut up or crushed.

Patented Double Flighted Top Auger Helps to hold the hay in the processor to be separated and eliminates "hay balls" from slipping in-between the flights and into the mixing chamber.

Easy Access Doors The single lever latch makes inspection easy and desirable compared to other little latches or hardware.

Single Point Grease Bank Allows quick lubrication from a single point. Heavy-duty drive assembly runs in an enclosed oil bath.

Lower Center of Gravity A lower center of gravity makes for a more stable unit when feeding and less shock load when cornering.

 

 

Trailer Features

  • Single pole tongue allows for a tight turning radius.
  • Trailer constructed of heavy-duty tubular steel with built in scale mountings.
  • Heavy-duty hubs and spindles designed for years of trouble free operation. A wide selection of tire choices.
  • Rear bumper is standard equipment.
  • Short wheelbase allows for tight turns and easy maneuverability.
  • Adjustable hitch device allows the operator to level mixer with most tractors to maximize mixer efficiency.
  • Heavy-duty, tubular trailer frame ensures long life and maximum scale accuracy.
  • Weigh bar scale or load-cell mounting.
  • Load cell mounting comes standard with Roto-Mix ball and socket type tie bars to connect the mixer to the frame. This feature eliminates side and end movement on the load cells, which allows for scale dependability and accuracy.

Stationary Units

  • Higher side discharge location allows easier loading of conveyors or elevator legs while maintaining a minimum mixer height.
  • Left and right discharge units available.
  • Low electric horsepower requirements.
  • Flexible motor mount designs to keep overall space requirements to a minimum.
  • Wide base scale frame.
