Pull Type Conditoining Rollers Crush Hay Stems
Last year FARM SHOW published an article on our add-on conditioning rollers designed to crush hay stems to cut drying time in half (Vol. 23, No. 2). The rollers are designed to replace rollers on most models of swathers and mower-conditioners. However, they don't fit all models. To meet the need we've just introduced our own 8-ft. pull-type conditioner as a stand-alone unit. The PT 8000 is designed as a followup conditioning system for use behind your swather or mower.
Three models are available - a pto-driven model that pulls directly behind the tractor; a hydraulic-powered model designed to be offset by a swing tongue to either the left or the right side of the tractor; and a model that's designed to be pulled behind a swather or mower and is powered by its own auxilliary engine.
All models make use of a unique air bag pressure system that holds the rubber-coated steel rollers tightly together. As the crop feeds through the rollers, the stems are flattened completely, laid out like ribbons. Cracks in the sides release moisture over the full length of the stem.
Sells for $18,000 to $21,000 depending on the model. (Circle C Equipment, LLC, 333 E. Feedville Road, Hermiston, Oregon 97838 ph 877 605-3499; fax 541 567-8918; Web site: www.superhaytoday.com)
