Forage packer Blackout 3600

Description
The Blackout is a heavy-duty silage compactor engineered for professional silage management, offering configurable weight, interchangeable roller configurations and options for intensive use. Available in Blackout 3000 and Blackout 3600 variants to suit different working widths and farm tractor sizes.

Key features

• Adjustable sliding bed for optimized contact and controlled compaction.
• Replaceable sliding bearing elements to maintain roller performance and minimise stress on the frame.

• Reinforced roll body designed to handle heavy loads during intensive silage operations.
• Water-filling capability: roller body and frame can be filled via filling screws; roller has two compartments to prevent splashing and the cap can be filled to increase total weight for tractor compatibility.
• Side compression rollers and cylinder technology deliver uniform pile shape, reduce spreading and improve fermentation conditions.
• 360° visualization / animation available for detailed product inspection.

Operational guidance
