2024 Kuhn Primor Series 4270 M

KUHN Primor bale processors can process a wide variety of materials that can be used in a multitude of ways. Choose from the mounted Primor 2060 M or the trailed Primor 4270 M to fit the needs of your operation.

Bedding, feeding or both… YOU decide what you want your KUHN Primor bale processor to do. As a bedding machine, the operator saves time by not having to open gates and manually spread out materials. As a feeding machine, the Primor can be used to pre-process bales for a more thoroughly mixed TMR or to directly feed a processed bale to a feed bunk. The simple operation and convenient in-cab controls make the KUHN Primor easy to operate while bedding or feeding as fast as possible.

The KUHN Primor 2060 M bale processor is an excellent choice for livestock managers and other operations where the goal is to utilize 4’ wide round and square bales for bedding, feeding or mulching. It is offered in a standard-duty, mounted version for exceptional maneuverability and versatility for small- and medium-sized operations.

The Primor 4270 M trailed bale processor features an extra-wide body for handling larger bales. With a loading capacity of 148 ft³, this machine can load one 4’ x 4’x 8’ large square bale or two 5’ x 6’ round bales – one in the hopper and one in the tailgate. The Primor 4270 M has an adjustable feed regulator to provide even more processing and distribution of both feed and bedding. Bedding flow can easily be directed and controlled hydraulically from the cab a full 300 degrees to the left, right and rear.

Features may include:

• The KUHN Primor machines can process a wide variety of materials that can be used in a multitude of ways. Both round and square bales of a wide range of sizes can be processed for both bedding materials or feed ingredients. Materials from corn stalks to wheat straw, and even to grassy hay can be processed using the multi-function rotor. Processed materials can then be dropped into a feed bunk, blown into a pile, or evenly spread throughout a pen.

• One person can quickly and easily bed multiple pens in a shorter amount of time.

• Increased blower thickness and the hydraulically disengageable Polydrive® belt system provide greater longevity and little maintenance.

• Use fewer materials due to a better and more even distribution. Using a Primor also results in lower costs and lower horsepower than a tub grinder.

• The tractor-mounted control box provides easy operation and adjustments directly from the cab. Safely bed pens evenly and efficiently without having to enter the pen.

• The Polydrive is a hydraulically disengageable belt system that drives the feed rotor. It offers several advantages:

• Rotor can be engaged and disengaged separately from the turbine, reducing startup horsepower required. This is important because material is not pulled into the turbine during startup which greatly reduces the risk of plugging.

• Eliminates the need for a shear bolt, making the Polydrive system more reliable and much quieter than a chain drive with virtually no maintenance besides visual inspection.

• Safe use. As the conveyor only moves when the feed rotor is engaged, accidental operations are avoided. The conveyor stops immediately as soon as the feed rotor is disengaged.
