Standard Features and Options
|
Gathering Chain & Sprockets
The Patz Blue Gathering Chain includes closed-die forged hardened cutters and claws to deliver maximum performance you can count on every time! |
Gearbox
Drive wheel cast-iron gearbox provides strength and rigidity to withstand high torque forces. Quality construction throughout provides years of service. |
Blower
The high-capacity blower’s high-strength, corrosion-resistant steel impeller blades with welded studs are adjustable to allow close tolerance for maximum blower efficiency and longer service life. Choose flat blades or cupped blades. The Patz design loads the blower from the side to provide superior blowing performance. Full circle blower band provides improved blower efficiency. Optional stainless steel blower is also available. |
Power Cutter
The power cutter's unique design with its spinning action follows the exact curvature of the silo wall. Spring tension keeps the spinning, self-sharpening knives in position resulting in a "clean shaven" silo wall. |
Depth-of-cut Control & Counterweight
The Unit 98C's depth-of-cut control and counterweight for the gathering chain eliminate daily adjustments while providing a full-flow of silage every feeding - right to the bottom of the silo. |
Control Panel with Pushbutton Station
For operator safety and convenience, a control panel with ammeter and remote pushbutton station are required equipment. |
Winch
For extra convenience and time savings, Patz offers an electric motor-driven winch as an option. A hand-crank winch is also an available option. |
