Standard Features & Options

GATHERING CHAIN & SPROCKETS

The gathering chain and sprockets include closed-die forged hardened cutters and claws to deliver maximum performance consistently.

POWER CUTTER

The power cutter’s unique design with its spinning action follows the exact curvature of the silo wall. Spring tension keeps the spinning, self-sharpening knives in position resulting in a “clean shaven” silo wall.

BLOWER

The blower’s high-strength, corrosion-resistant steel impeller blades with welded studs are adjustable to allow close tolerance for maximum efficiency and longer service life.  Choose flat blades or cupped blades.

DISTRIBUTOR BOARD

Top quality silage requires a uniform distribution for better compaction of materials during the silo filling process. To accomplish this, Patz offers gravity-type and power-assisted distributors.

RING

The 9′ (2.74 m) ring is flanged to the inside for greater strength. The ring is reversible for additional life.

AUTOMATIC LOWERING

An optional electric motor-driven winch automatically lowers the ring-drive silo unloader after it makes each revolution. Adjust the letdown to match the silage condition and desired rate of feed flow.  The automatic lowering control keeps the silage surface level for reliable operation and constant full-flow feeding. This winch control also allows you to easily raise the silo unloader at any time with the push of a button.
