Martin Equipment will be exhibiting a broad selection of slurry-spreading solutions. Upfront and centre will be its new 4,500-gallon slurry tanker, kitted out with a 6in overhead boom on a slew ring gear. Martin says the reason behind this is to reduce overhang at the rear to help with the low-emission applicator fitment.
Manufacturing tankers less than two years, the firm explained that it has built close to 50 units, with this 4,500-gallon tri-axle unit its largest to date. All tankers are built using 6mm steel, fully seam-welded inside and out and supported by internal reinforcing baffles.
Meanwhile, the arches and chassis are made from 10mm steel. It notes all components are sourced from premium suppliers, including Battioni vacuum pumps, Distag axles, RIV gate valves, etc. The tanker set for Punchestown next week is equipped with 710-26.5 tyres, a 13,500l sludgigator pump and a 10m trailing shoe. Martin will also show its new design facelift front-mounted PTO driven air compressor. The new model is folded differently and features an in-built toolbox and comes in a range of colours. Driven by a heavy ribbed belt, it’s available in either 300cfm or 400cfm outputs and features an Italian-sourced compressor unit, built on an in-house galvanised chassis.
Martin will also show its new facelift Bauer pump, a 10m trailing shoe and a drop out reeler featuring a double drive. The reeler is now available in three-point linkage and A-frame mounting.
