As one of the earliest total mixed ration (TMR) mixers adopted in modern pastures, the trailed TMR mixer is equipped with a drawbar extending from the frame, which is connected to the tractor hitch. It is driven by the power take-off (PTO) at the rear of the tractor.
A forklift is required for loading. The opening and closing of the discharge door are controlled by the tractor’s hydraulic system. Thanks to the mobility of the tractor, the mixer can travel freely around the farm to complete feed mixing, transportation and distribution.
Due to its high flexibility and low initial investment, trailed TMR mixers are still widely used in many large-scale farms.
There are various types of TMR mixers. Considering China’s breeding modes and practical conditions, the trailed TMR mixer is one of the most suitable choices for most breeders.Qingdao Sanhe Machinery specializes in the production of TMR mixers. Users can select the appropriate model according to their actual conditions.
Advantages of the trailed TMR mixer:
It has low requirements for the tractor brand and condition as long as the power is sufficient, which greatly reduces upfront equipment investment.
With the mobility of the tractor, it can move freely in the farm and perform functions of mixing, transporting and distributing feed.
It realizes mechanical processing of dairy cow rations with more even and delicate mixing, saves labor time, greatly reduces labor intensity, lowers metabolic diseases, and improves milk yield.
It reduces the number of workers required.
It overcomes the shortcoming of stationary TMR mixers, where feed needs multiple transfers by agricultural vehicles or distribution trucks, which easily destroys the uniformity of TMR.
