2020 Kuhn North America VT Series 180 Trailer Front

For producers with more moderate feeding cycles, but still require a large-capacity mixer, the VT 180 & 1100 models are an ideal choice. These two models range in capacity from 800 to 1,100 cubic feet, and are available as a truck or trailer configuration.

KUHN Knight VT 180 & VT 1100 twin-auger Vertical Maxx® mixers are ideal for large dairy and beef producers who want to place quality rations in front of their animals. The VT models are rugged, dependable, large-capacity mixers designed for moderate-use cycles of around 4 to 5 hours per day.

These mixers feature a proven mixer tub and auger design, ensuring a quality mix is delivered, every load. The VT 180 and VT 1100 mixers are a great choice for operations looking to minimize feeding time and are competitively priced for moderate feeding situations. Multiple door location options for all models offer versatility for different feeding situations and provide fast, consistent discharge. The VT Series mixers are available with a single- or tandem-axle trailer, as well as a truck mount option, to match each customer’s specific needs.

Cone-Style Auger & Kicker Design

New cone-style augers provide superior feed movement for faster, more complete mixing and processing. The smooth, continuous auger flighting (1) creates a rolling feed action that improves mixing. The top cover of the auger has a steep angle to aid in bale movement when processing round bales and to prevent feed from sitting on top of the auger between mixes. The straight bolt-on kicker (2) provides a fast and even discharge. Each lead flight is equipped with a cast iron scraper (3) that pulls material away from the tub walls into the auger for a better overall mix. Both the kicker and scraper are bolt-on attachments, making replacement very easy to save you precious time.

Large, 15” or 20”, replaceable hay cutting knives are available to best handle the material to be processed. The knives have two positions to adjust the aggressiveness of the knife angle. Versatility of knife length, angle and position allow for an optimal setting with a wide variety of ration ingredients.

• A: Knife set in for slicing and cutting

• B: Knife set out for grabbing and tearing

Straighter sides, smoother curves and steeper baffles help promote a fast, complete mix for a fluffy, palatable ration. No preprocessing or special loading is required for round or square bales making it easy to load and use. Faster auger speeds also provide quicker, more complete cleanout.

For unmatched feed flow, these mixers feature the largest discharge door available in the industry. The discharge linkage allows for rapid opening and closing of the door.

The adjustable hay stops provide flexibility in processing to provide you with the cut length necessary to reach the optimal nutritional value you’re striving for. This adjustability makes hay processing more efficient and helps minimize overprocessing.
