The high-performance TORRO loader wagon fulfils all your needs for cost-effective silage harvesting. This range gives you high output and reliable performance for high capacity harvesting operations.

POWERMATIC PLUS loading rotor – smooth running and fuel saving

POWERMATIC PLUS is the heart of TORRO series loader wagons. Rugged and powerful, the rotor delivers high output chopping and compression. POWERMATIC PLUS represents smooth, fuel-saving penetration of the crop and perfect transfer from the pick-up.

• The loading rotor has eight rows of tines arranged in a spiral and a diameter of 800 mm.
• The loading rotor is mounted on self-aligning ball bearings at both ends.
• The bearing is located on the rotor frame between the rotor and gearbox to protect the bearings and gearbox.

Optimised tine geometry

Wide surfaces on the tine points ensure maximum performance even with wet and short forage. The optimised tine shape and large scraper surface ensure the best possible compression in the loading chamber. The conveyor tines are made of hardened fine - grain Durostat 500 and are 10 mm thick. The tine rings are hooked into the central drum and welded around the circumference for exact positioning.

The scrapers have an 20 mm wide rear face and are individually mounted and bolted. They ensure highest possible compression, depending on how the automatic loading system is set.

45 knives – 34 mm knife spacing

Consistent and uniform chopping ensures ideally structured ruminant stimulating forage. An optimum distance between the knives and tines ensures smooth operation and protects the knives from foreign objects.

TWIN BLADE reversible knives optional

• The newly-developed and patented geometry of the reversible TWIN BLADE knife doubles the service life.
• A consistent perfect chop is ensured while replacement knives are always on-board.

This unique swing-out knife bank makes light work of changing the knives.

Press a button on the side of the wagon to move the knife bank support arms downwards and release the chopping system. Now you can simply pull the knife bank out alongside the wagon - a unique system.

Central knife release system as standard

Press the central knife release button to disengage the knives so they can easily be removed without the need for tools.

The knife retention springs and rollers on the individual knife protection system are swung safely out of the way. This greatly reduces the contamination of the knife holders. The chopping system can be pivoted out directly from the tractor seat to clear any blockages.

Highest quality knives

The knives are produced from hardened tool steel and their pressed serrated edge ensures a precise chop. The extra thick rear edge of the knife guarantees an extended service life.

New: Extra strong DURASTAR knives for stony soil.

Ensuring knife protection

PÖTTINGER protects the heart of the loader wagon with a patented individual knife protection system. Foreign bodies are a danger to the rotor and chopping system plus downtime can be expensive.

The triggering force is adapted to the high throughput and capacity. The knives are held securely in the correct position to make sure that a consistent chop length is produced.

Patented trigger mechanism

• Larger foreign objects only move the knife briefly in the direction of crop flow.
• The trigger roller is lifted out of its holder at the back of the knife.
• The resistance of the knife is suddenly reduced so that the knife can allow the foreign object to pass through virtually unobstructed. The sharpness of the knife is retained.
• The knife is then automatically brought back into the working position.

Any stones in the forage are not pulverised like they are in harvesters. The cattle leave them in the trough so that injuries to the digestive system are avoided.
