2024 Kuhn RA 136 & 142 Reel Mixers 136 Trailer

KUHN Knight RA 136 & 142 Reel Auggie® mixers provide the ultimate versatility, durability and performance. Two models are available in trailer, truck or stationary configurations, and offer capacities of 360 and 420 ft³.

KUHN Knight RA 136 & 142 Reel Auggie® mixers provide outstanding durability and performance, with advanced features that stand out from the competition. Reel mixers are ideal for dairy and beef producers mixing rations with high percentages of processed roughages or distillers grains. The Helix® reel, with its open-concept design, offers faster, more consistent mixing and improved load leveling with any ration. Strengthened body and drive components provide superior dependability and long life. From the popular, multi-purpose trailer models, to the fast, convenient transport offered by truck mounted machines, to stationary models that are ideal for central mixing, there is a mixer to meet the needs of any operation. These machines also offer a low standard loading height for easy loading with skid steers.

Features may include:

• The reel thoroughly mixes rations gently without causing excessive damage to the feed ingredients, providing desired particle length in the TMR. The large reel gently lifts material up into the side augers for excellent side-to-side movement. The upper auger moves material rearward, while the lower auger moves material forward for end-to-end mixing. This helps feed continually charge the door during discharge.

• The Helix® reel has a robust build and has been thoroughly tested to withstand the most challenging conditions. The design of the reel crossbars evens the pressure across the length of the reel for smoother operation. It also engages with the feed more smoothly.

• The open-center design eliminates obstructions in the reel and provides superior feed movement and unparalleled mixing action. The benefits are unmistakable, with faster, more consistent mixing, improved load leveling, optimized mixer space utilization and fewer dead spots for the ultimate in ration quality.

• A mix bar runs diagonally across the center of the reel to help ensure consistent feed movement throughout the entire mixing chamber. The reel crossbars keep feed moving efficiently around the outside of the chamber. The secondary mechanical mixing action from the mix bar provides a fast and thorough mix even in wet, heavy rations with large amounts of distillers grains.

• Quality performance, with the lowest possible input costs is the goal of every operation. The fast, gentle mixing of KUHN Knight reel mixers helps maximize efficiency and minimize expense. The reel and auger design eliminates much of the force and pressure seen with other mixer types, resulting in low horsepower requirements and, correspondingly, less fuel consumption for economical operation.

• KUHN Knight reel mixers provide a consistent mix, even with small batches, for a balanced ration from beginning to end. Their quick, even discharge with a more complete cleanout helps save time and maximizes efficiency.

• With a high discharge point, these mixers allow for the use of a simple slide tray in most feeding situations. The long tray makes it easy to feed deeper into most bunks while preventing feed loss from the wind. This dependable, low-cost option also results in less maintenance.
