Key Benefits

LM105 Feedlot Bale Unroller Feeding Trough

Easy to use

The LM105T feedlot bale unroller has single level feed control, making it very easy to use and ideal for share milkers.

Toughest chains on the market

Super strong roller chains with the combined strength of 24,000 lbs, with tough 40 mm x 40 mm (1.5 in x 1.5 in) zinc-plated bars. Bars are bolted to the chain, a stronger and more easily replaceable system.

Tough polyethylene floor

Non-corrosive, impervious to UV, slippery, easily repairable and very shock resistant. Fully enclosed – no wastage of expensive feed. Long bed can take 5’ long bales.

Low maintenance

Instead of bushes we use longer-lasting block bearings, mounted outboard to keep them clean and free of damage.

Best bale security on the market

Ez Remote Control

Ez Remote Control

Making rebaling easy, the remote control valve can be positioned within a 160-degree arc to suit individual operator preference and provides improved visibility of the feed flow into the baler. The control levers are mounted on an arm to keep the operator outside the dust zone.

Features

Strongest Bars

Bars are 4-5 times stronger torsionally than angle type bars of same size. We’ve bolted them to the chain which is stronger and for different bale types blank bars or bars with more aggressive teeth are available and can simply be bolted on in a matter of minutes.

Toughest Chains

Zinc plated chains rated to 24,000lbs with the larger diameter rollers and pins make our chain drive system almost twice as strong as our competitors. And the greater surface on each roller pin increases chain life because they can’t stretch of snake.

Low maintenance bearings

Protected double sealed heavy-duty 4-bolt bearings with trash shields are mounted outboard of the feeding chamber, which makes them last longer than internally mounted bushes.

Enclosed sprockets

Our 6 tooth sprockets are made from Bisalloy (the same material a bulldozer blade is made from) so they last forever. With smaller diameter sprockets less torque is required to drive the chains, giving more drive power for tough bales. Designed so it is impossible for chain to jump off the sprocket saves you downtime in the field. The chain runs on a roller at the main elevator pivot, eliminating any further chain wear.

Raised Sides

The raised side stops feed falling off the elevator and being wasted. This is especially important when feeding out fine chopped silage or maize bales.

Maximum reach

Large extension for maximum reach allows feeding out into hay baskets/cradles as well as troughs and feedpads.

Bale chamber

Fully enclosed front and rear bale chamber reduces feed falling out. This also enables you to feed out maize bales or fine chopped silage.

Rope guide

The unique rope guide makes disconnection easy because of a direct pull of the rope on the latch. It also keeps the rope out of the way of the tractor tyre.

Polyethylene floor

Fully enclosed extruded polyethylene floor reduces feed waste and it will never corrode. Being polyethylene it is slippery with 30% less drag compared to steel which makes feeding sticky silage or wet bales easy.

Savings Calculator

Most of the savings are achieved by a reduction in the amount of bale which is wasted.

Feed wastage can be caused by various factors:
1) The bale is not teased apart enough making it harder for stock to eat.
2) Animals laying or trampling on fodder.
3) Unfinished bales inside ring feeders due to poor ground conditions, not allowing animals to reach the leftover bale.
4) Stock rejecting feed because of dirt, mud or other contaminants.

Savings can be made by feeding the right amount of the bale and retaining the rest for the next feed. By feeding over a larger area compare to a ring feeder, there is less competition between the animals.

Typical savings achieved by using a Hustler Chainless bale feeder are between 15-40%, depending on your existing feeding system (chain feeders typically save 10-35%).
