Influence of mixing-distribution trailers design on feed distribution uniformity

Abstract

The aim of this investigation was analysis of main mixing-distribution trailer working parameters. This will serve as a base for evaluation of possibilities for obtaining better feed preparation quality on farms, more uniform feed distribution, higher productivity and energy saving. Results have shown that different conceptions of mixing-distribution trailers have different quality of food distribution. Best uniformity of distribution was achieved by using of trailer with horizontal mixing rotor and with tiller for silage cutting and loading.

Cilj ovog rada je analiza parametara rada savremenih mikser prikolica u uslovima eksploatacije, kako bi se sagledala mogućnost pripreme kvalitetnijeg obroka sa stanovišta mešanja i homogenizacije, ostvarila bolja ravnomernost distribucije pripremljenog hraniva, povećala produktivnost rada i smanjila potrošnja energije. Na osnovu podataka određeni su ravnomernost distribucije hraniva i prosečna količina izbačene mase. Analizom dobijenih rezultata konstatovano je da mikser prikolice sa horizontalnim rotorima daju bolje rezultate u pogledu ravnomernosti distribucije hraniva.
