Now offering silage forks in widths from 12ft to 16ft, with tine lengths of five or six foot, Samco has said that wider spacing is also becoming popular with precision chop silage contractors, due to the grass being allowed to flow through the tines as it is levelled by the loader.
It notes that a reduced amount of ‘flicking’ is needed by the operator to level the load, which increases the forward momentum; hence the amount of time spent rolling the pit can be increased.
It also reduces wear and stress on both man and machine from less movement needed to level the load of grass.
Samco claims to build the only fork available on the market with the double ball self-angling bearing for a long service life.
It says the positioning of the bearing system at the outside of the hinge points increases strength and reduces wear on the hinge points.
Wheel extenders
A past winning entry in the Agri Innovation Area at the Ploughing, Samco says that the wheel extenders are growing in popularity with contractors. It says the speed at which they can be moved from road to pit working position is less than three minutes for the pair.
Depending on the loader model, width of up to 12 inches can be achieved on each side, allowing the front wheels to be offset from the rear ones.
It says the greatest advantage is in the stability and safety this brings to the operator to allow them to use the machine to its full capacity.
Samco now offers three rim sizes, as it says customer requests for the larger loaders have increased. A demonstration unit will be on Samco’s stand.
Maize drill
Samco’s maize drill offering now comes with optional features, such as the 2,000l front tank and new controllers, as the emphasis is on output. The range has widened and Samco says eight and 12-row planters are now a common sight.
Grass and tillage kit
Samco says this year has seen a large uptake of the equipment associated with grass reseeding. A newly designed stone fork will be on its stand, which has some novel safety features for road use.
The features allow the fork to fold straight up, reducing the front overhang on the road by four feet. Front weights can be added, as required.
Adding to the range will be two sizes of disc harrow, which it says have found favour with contractor and framers due to the robustness of the frame and the deep-notched disc; ideal for grass land cultivation. Its folding 5m land leveller with its patented stone collector will be on display.
Samco will showcase its three and five leg grass land and tillage subsoilers. Samco says it has been on the market for some time but the larger machines for the export market have gained favour in places like Chile, Canada and Poland of late.
