The KUHN Knight RC 3120 is the newest addition to the KUHN Knight reel mixer lineup. Available in a trailed or truck-mount configuration, the RC 3120 boasts a mixing capacity of 1,200 ft³, making it the largest reel mixer offered by KUHN and the largest trailed reel mixer on the market. The large mixing tub features the famous Helix reel, providing fast, thorough mixing of a wide variety of already processed materials. A new sophisticated software provides unmatched automation through KUHN’s new truck controls providing the operator simple control over the machine. The RC 3120 not only has the brains for next-generation cattle feeding, but also possesses the brawn necessary for demanding applications. No chains and sprockets are used on the RC 3120 drive, only heavy-duty planetary gearboxes used on vertical mixer augers and concrete mixers.

Features may include:

• The full gearbox drive on the RC 3120 mixer eliminates the need for chains and sprockets in the drive system. Eliminating chains and sprockets removes multiple wearing items on the mixer drive. Eliminating chain and sprocket drives also enables split, independent control of the horizontal augers and reel on truck mounted machines. With the gearbox drive, a customer gains simplicity of reduced drive components while also increasing options for further control of the mixing process.

• Drive components on the RC 3120 are built to last in high-use applications. Each auger is driven by a planetary gearbox similar to the planetaries used on the VT Vertical Mixers. The reel drive planetary is one of the highest rated gearboxes in a planetary line that is used predominantly in concrete mixer truck applications. The drive components on the RC 3120 are comparable to bringing a twin-auger vertical mixer and a concrete mixer together and combining them in one machine!

• 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.

• The reel thoroughly mixes rations gently without causing excessive damage to the feed ingredients, preserving precious nutritional value for your herd. 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.

• Quality performance, with the lowest possible input costs is the goal of every operation.
