Spirmix Trap Door 1 auger 12 – 14
The Spirmix Trap Door range of single diet feeders consists of 3 models of 12 – 14 m3. These mixer wagons equipped with a vertical auger that aerates and stirs the mix, and can feed a herd of 60 to 90 head in a single pass.

These single auger mixers are equipped with a distribution trap, it is perfectly suited to rations consisting mostly of silage. As standard, the distribution trap door is on the right side, adaptable to different configurations, it is possible to personalize the diet feeder with other distribution options. To facilitate distribution, the mix slides on a flap located under the trap door to move it away from the wheel axis.
- Front right feeding trap door
- Mixing auger equipped with 6 reversible tungsten carbide knives height 1100 mm
- 2 Manual cut-off plates
- Not programmable weighing box X 400
- Two-speed gearbox
- The standard machine uses 1 hydraulic function
To offset the ration during the distribution, it’s possible to add as an option an automatically folding mechanical flap acting with the opening or closing of the trap door. The mix slides off of the flap on the trap door onto the floor offset by 20cm from the wheel.
Depending on the density, the ingredients in the ration and the capacity of the mixer, it is essential to customise the mixing auger. Each auger can accept 8 or 10 knives per auger. The angle of attack of the knives can be adjusted to increase their aggressiveness. It is also possible to add a Neodymium Magnet on the auger which allows the recovery of ferrous foreign matter.
The material moves better in a smooth rolled tank because it is not subjected to various constraints. As a result, the ration is mixed naturally and more effectively. The power required for a mix is reduced to a minimum. The smooth flared shape means that a homogeneous mixture can be obtained faster. The round design of the tank automatically extends the life of the tank. Aware of the intensive use of diet feeders, the tanks are made from HEL (High Elastic Limit) steel absorbing the stresses related to loading, mixing and to moving the laden machine.
Lucas G stepped augers have a unique shape that allows the ration to be cut and aerated through the steps that amplify the mixing of the ration for perfect homogeneity. As standard, the augers are equipped with 6 knives. It is possible to have 8 or 10 knives per auger and to adjust the angle of attack to increase the aggressiveness and thus cut the fibre more quickly. The screw blades have a tungsten carbide coating and are reversible to ensure a longer service life.
Each auger is driven by a planetary gearbox mounted halfway up the auger for a better stability and to reduce lateral resistance during mixing. These gearboxes are tested for intensive use and are independently protected by shear bolt to prevent damage.
All the vertical auger diet feeders are equipped with tank reinforcement which prevents deformation of the feeders. This reinforcement limits pressure on the planetary units and the weigh cells during displacement and loading phases to prevent damage.
The feeders Spirmix are standard equipped with a non-programable weighing system X400. Each machine is equipped with protected 3, 4 ou 6 weigh cells ensuring maximum stability and accuracy of the preparation of the ration. Depending on the model, functions available include weighing ingredients, managing feed recipes and adapting to number of animals and managing feed data. Tare weight system and skipping ingredient can be remote controlled. The X Management software will give you the possibility to manage your stock of raw material, calculate your feed costs per batch of animals.
Mixers are equipped with 2 oversized and manual cut-off plates of 85 cm as standard, they are reversed and located on rear right and front left of the tank side. These cut-off plates are adjustable in 5 positions to speed up the cutting process and to block the fibre at the bottom of the tank.As an option, it’s possible to equip the machine with hydraulic cut-off plates.
