VSR540 Single-Screw Vertical Mixer Features & Benefits

Efficient mixing and cleanout

Empty the mixer quickly and efficiently at the end of a load with optional high-screw rpm. A 48-rpm screw, along with two points of contact with the tub floor helps clean out the tub to make sure the ration gets in the bunk or on the curb.

Cleanout is quick and efficient with two points of contact on the tub floor.

Processing ability

Achieve a thorough and consistently mixed ration with the VSR540 single-screw vertical mixer. Built to handle high-roughage rations, this mixer can process full bales or preprocessed material in a timely and flexible manner.

Less feed on the ground means less feed wasted. An optimized tub and screw design along with a bale containment kit minimize spillage during mixing or processing.

Help keep more roughage in the tub of the mixer and less on the ground with the standard bale containment kit. A chain hay ring around the rim of the tub helps to minimize spillage.

Built to last

Extend machine life with a heavy-duty planetary.

Focus on feeding — not getting your mixer stuck in adverse ground conditions. The tires on the VSR540 single-screw vertical mixer provide maximized flotation to help prevent ground damage.

Extend machine life and minimize routine maintenance with durable components such as a heavy-duty planetary and 1/2-in (13-mm) AR200 screw flighting.
