2024 Kuhn Primor 2060 M
Bedding, Feeding or Both…You DecideKUHN Primor bale processors can process a wide variety of materials that can be used in a multitude of ways. Choose from the mounted Primor 2060 M or the trailed Primor 4270 M to fit the needs of your operation.
Bedding, feeding or both… YOU decide what you want your KUHN Primor bale processor to do. As a bedding machine, the operator saves time by not having to open gates and manually spread out materials. As a feeding machine, the Primor can be used to pre-process bales for a more thoroughly mixed TMR or to directly feed a processed bale to a feed bunk. The simple operation and convenient in-cab controls make the KUHN Primor easy to operate while bedding or feeding as fast as possible.
Features may include:
Ultimate Versatility- The KUHN Primor machines can process a wide variety of materials that can be used in a multitude of ways. Both round and square bales of a wide range of sizes can be processed for both bedding materials or feed ingredients. Materials from corn stalks to wheat straw, and even to grassy hay can be processed using the multi-function rotor. Processed materials can then be dropped into a feed bunk, blown into a pile, or evenly spread throughout a pen.
Labor Savings- One person can quickly and easily bed multiple pens in a shorter amount of time.
Reliability- Increased blower thickness and the hydraulically disengageable Polydrive® belt system provide greater longevity and little maintenance.
Efficiency- Use fewer materials due to a better and more even distribution. Using a Primor also results in lower costs and lower horsepower than a tub grinder.
Operator Comfort & Safety- The tractor-mounted control box provides easy operation and adjustments directly from the cab. Safely bed pens evenly and efficiently without having to enter the pen.
The Original & Proven Polydrive® Belt System- The Polydrive is a hydraulically disengageable belt system that drives the feed rotor. It offers several advantages:
- Rotor can be engaged and disengaged separately from the turbine, reducing startup horsepower required. This is important because material is not pulled into the turbine during startup which greatly reduces the risk of plugging.
- Eliminates the need for a shear bolt, making the Polydrive system more reliable and much quieter than a chain drive with virtually no maintenance besides visual inspection.
- Safe use. As the conveyor only moves when the feed rotor is engaged, accidental operations are avoided. The conveyor stops immediately as soon as the feed rotor is disengaged.
Turbine Wheel- The turbine wheel consists of eight blades, two of which are longer than the others in order to generate a speed differential in the turbine and produce a “shower” of straw. The large working area of the broad blades propels the product stream over the entire height of the chute. Straw is therefore blown consistently and evenly from bottom to top without touching the chute.
- The turbine on the 4270 M Primor is 50% thicker and features a stainless steel liner to further resist abrasion and add life to your machine. The wider, 67” turbine allows for a high-speed discharge that spreads material up to 60’.
2-Speed Gearbox- The 2-speed gearbox offers a high and low setting of the blower speed allowing you to vary the distance that the product is distributed. The low setting reduces the blow back, which is recommended for feeding and will also work for bedding smaller facilities. For wider distribution bedding, use high speed to achieve maximum range.
