Mayo-based engineering firm Agri-Spread unveiled its new series of vertical beater rear discharge spreaders at the NEC last week. They are designed to spread a range of manure types, with models available from 6t to 12t.
The full spiral vertical beaters and wearing tips now come as standard in Hardox. The beaters are mechanically driven by a PTO at 1,000rpm through a one-piece gearbox.
The spreader has a monocoque design, in that the chassis is integrated into the body. The material is fed to the beaters by a one-piece floor slat. Agri-Spread explained that the floor gearbox is protected by a relief valve, which protects both the beaters and the floor drive mechanism. The floor can also be reversed if a blockage occurs.
Optional extras include weigh cells with an Isobus rate controller, in-cab electric floor control and a slurry door. Prices start at €21,125 plus VAT.
