IntroductionDesigned for demanding agricultural use, the BIZON drum shredder processes straw, hay, corn and various biomass for feed, bedding and energy applications.
Applications- Feed preparation for cattle: efficient shredding of straw and hay to obtain the recommended chop length for better animal intake and ration homogeneity.
- Bedding production: processing large straw bales to produce bedding material with adjustable particle length; large screens enable high throughput up to 50 t/h.
- Grinding maize cobs and cereals: handles wet or dry grain, with interchangeable screens to set the desired particle size.
- Biomass processing: shredding various biomass types including wet straw bales and manure for biogas plants and composting.
Functions and advantages- Precise adjustment of chop length according to nutritionist recommendations.
- Optimisation of TMR structure to improve digestibility and reduce selective feeding.
- Reduced TMR preparation time, lower fuel consumption and reduced wear on mixers.
- Choice of screen sizes from 2 mm to 200 mm to control output particle size.
- Capable of processing a wide range of materials: straw (wheat, barley, oats, oilseed rape), hay, maize cobs and kernels, cereals, miscanthus, alfalfa, harvest residues, wet or dry material, manure and green material for composting.
- Flexible drive options: standard PTO drive (1000 rpm), optional electric or diesel motor.
Connection and operation- Hitch options: drawbar eye, K80 drawbar eye, Clevis hitch.
- Requires a PTO shaft with 21 teeth and 35 mm diameter (1 3/8" profile) for tractor-driven versions.
Characteristics / technical specifications- Available models: B-800, B-1030, B-1130.
