THE "E / M"MODEL IS FOR CATTLE 

On 

the  “E  /  M"  straw  chopper  model  the  cutting  turbine  is  replaced  by 

two cutting rollers (R), specially designed for chopping straw for cattle (see 
Figure 1.9). 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The  chopping  roller  system  not  only  allows  straw  to  be  chopped,  but 

also allows the damp silage to be chopped/   shredded.  

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The roller moves thanks to a gear and chain transmission (T) situated on 

the outside of the box and protected by a cover (see figure 1.7). 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 The  roller  is  fed  by  a  comb-like 
device that distributes the straw to 
be chopped at the input. The roller 
is  also  fitted  with  interchangeable 
knives  (C),  which  have  greater 
cutting  power  than  the  cutting 
turbine.

 

As  in  other  models,  a 
blower turbine (S) installed 
in  the  bottom  of  the  box, 
behind  the  roller,  ensures 
distribution  through  the 
discharge nozzle.
