FlexiFeeder

 

 

Reliable, manually controlled round bale chopper by Serigstad.

 

The FlexiFeeder series has been tested, refined, and improved for more than 35 years. The cutter comes in several versions and sizes, such as extended models, with fixed sides or side doors, with integrated feed table and hopper, stationary, rail-mounted, or with wheel sets.

Surety

In the autumn of 2020, we upgraded the FlexiFeeder with a new type of cable pulley, carriers, and splice loops.

Manual control

The FlexiFeeder is controlled by physical switches on the machine. Remote control for the conveyor is available for more flexible use.

Applications

The cutter provides precise distribution and dosage of different types of feed. It can be used in combination with belt feeding, a mixer, drop chute, wheelbarrow, or as a distribution wagon on rails or wheels.

FlexiFeeder for straw

In collaboration with farmers all over the country, we have now developed a chopper specifically for straw.

  • The chopper is prepared with expansion of straw in mind
  • The result is fluffy and well cut forage
  • Possible to install 60 knives for dry matter
  • Manual control, low power consumption and compact
  • May be connected to a system
  • Knife setup and rotation speed specifically set up for straw

Maintenance

Are your knives good enough?

The knives are regarded as the heart of the machine.

 

Over time, the knives will become dull. This is observed by longer cutting time and poorer cutting, and is fixed by sharpening the knives. After repeated sharpening, the knife may be worn out. Check height and shape by comparing the knife with our knife wear template.

Straw or frozen mass?

Making the forage rotate in the chopper is fundamental for optimal function. Straw or frozen grass may in some cases rotate poorly in older machines.

 

The remedy in these cases may be to to weld knobs to the carriers on the conveyor.
