Mounted bale processor Tomahawk 6200P

automaticfor round balesPTO-driven

Introduction

• Designed for tractor operation: Combines PTO-driven fan with a hydraulic drive and control system to process straw and dry hay bales efficiently.
• Smart hydraulic drive and control: Wi‑Fi control desk operates all functions including the hydraulic loading gate and provides a pushbutton pause/resume spreading feature. Crossbeater load is monitored with an automatic reverse on overload.
• Accepts all common bale sizes: Handles a full 4' x 4' x 8' (1.2 x 1.2 x 2.4 m) rectangular bale or a 5' (1.5 m) round bale for straw and dry hay material.

Highlights & Features

• Convenient wireless control: Pause/Run modes and remote operation of loading gate, chute and processing from the handler cab. Requires cab and external 12V supply.
• Load sensing auto control: Blades/hooks on the full-width crossbeater break the bale and feed material into the fan.
• Optimised output: Pressure switch auto-reverses bed chain and crossbeater when overloaded; adjustable pressure setting for operator tuning.
• Robust driveline: Self-aligning cush drive absorbs shock when crossbeater reverses and re-engages for continuous processing.
• Self-loading: Hydraulic loading gate with adjustable bale beam for automatic loading of round or rectangular bales.
• Tractor compatibility: Three-point hitch compatible with Cat II and III tractors; PTO and hydraulic connections required.
• 3-stage chute: For accurate placement of processed material; fitted with Hardox wearing surfaces.
• Delivery distance up to 20 m: Single-speed 8-paddle fan (775 rpm) for maximum throw; replaceable paddles for serviceability.
• Even distribution: Large 320 mm wide chute with Hardox surface; chute rotates 280° to place straw across bedding area.
• High-strength bed conveyor: Six heavy-duty 60 x 40 mm bed slats attached with U-bolts to 10 mm diameter galvanised bed chains.
• Simple setup: Pressure gauge assists operator in setting auto-reverse for efficient operation.
• Options: Crossbeater configuration (hooks or blades), hydraulic top link, in-line oil filter, road lighting kit, ski-jump chute, tailgate switch.
• Finish: Double powder-coat paint for improved durability.
• Manufacture: Built in the UK.

Keys to profitability
Operator frequency and quantity of straw used determine time and material savings. Correct machine selection and a 'little and often' bedding strategy improve livestock comfort, reduce labour and enhance manure quality.

How a straw blower saves straw
Bales are efficiently broken and spread evenly. Straw is bruised to increase absorbency while retaining length for bedding structure. Partial bales can be used and remaining material saved for later use.
