2021 Kverneland Bale Choppers - Feeders 853 Pro

The new Kverneland 853 Pro and 856 Pro have seen a number of updates compared to the well-established Kverneland 850 bale chopper range, to meet the highest demands when it comes to operator comfort and blockage-free operation.

The Pro series of bale choppers offers a strong package of new features such as redesigned flywheel, new 3-stage swiveling chute, patented feed control system and remote control of tailgate and floor chain.

• 3 and 6m³ chamber.

• Blowing distance up to 20m.

• New 3-stage swivelling Pro chute.

• Drum Feed Control System - Blockage-Free Design

• Optimsed feeding and bedding.

• Unique drum-knife configuration to handle a wide variety of materials.

• Two speed gearbox for reduced flywheel speed when discharging feed materials.

Features may include:

• The Pro chute operates in 3 stages to optimize the blowing distance for bedding

• Blowing distance up to 20m.

• Designed with a turning radius of 260° which enables easy access to even difficult reachable spaces.

• The 3-stage movement enhance the feeding perfomance without blockage even on long fibrous material.

A new flywheel configuration has been developed for the Kverneland 853 Pro and 856 Pro.

• The features in construction designed 3-stage swivel chute enables the perfect combination of extensive blowing distance and feeding into high troughs

• To maximise airflow the 1.55m diameter flywheel is fitted with 6 large front blower paddles.

• The flywheel features 3 main paddles for an increased intake of material from chamber to flywheel.

• The flywheel does not chop the straw, thus ensures virtual full length material suitable for bedding of covered yard areas.

• The Drum Feed Control System (DFCS) is an exclusive feature (patent pending), designed to handle even the most difficult material when feeding.

• It is a simple and reliable system, which includes a powerful electric cylinder and a comb positioned above the drum.

• During loading DFCS is engaged, which means that the comb is in a lowered position.

• This ensures that blockages of the flywheel is minimized during the loading and start up process.

• Once the flywheel speed is at a sufficient level, all you need to do is to push a button and the DFCS ‘fingers’ will be gradually disengaged and open for full flow through the flywheel resulting in

• perfect flow.

• The progressive release of the ‘fingers’ offers a more gentle start, protecting the machine and minimizing the risk of blockages.

• A reliable and simple system with minimum maintenance!

• To provide the correct flywheel speed for bedding and feeding the Kverneland 853 and 856 are fitted with a two speed gearbox.

• At lower speeds the flywheel ensures a metered flow of silage or hay for feeding.

• At high speed a powerful blow for the most efficient distribution during bedding is ensured.

• The gearbox speed is adjusted via the handle on the side of the machine.
