Vertical mixing wagon Canopus

towedside dischargesingle-auger

Overview
Canopus is a vertical auger feed mixer engineered for modern livestock operations. Its special auger geometry provides fast, homogeneous mixing of forage and concentrates. The lowered chassis facilitates loading and the observation panel enables safe monitoring of the mixing process. Optional integrations (weighing system, conveyor, double discharge) adapt the machine to different production workflows.

Key Features

• Fast and effective shredding: bales are shredded, cut and mixed with roughage in short cycles to improve feed preparation throughput.
• Ration homogeneity: design minimizes residual feed on the machine floor to ensure consistent rations at distribution.
• Reduced losses with optimized body: patented body geometry lowers leftover feed and waste.
• Modular options: weighing system, conveyor belt, double discharge, loading bucket and hydraulic jack available depending on model.
• Observation window: standard on most variants for safe process control.
