2024 Kuhn PF 100 Feed Delivery Box 1145

The new KUHN Knight ProFeed® PF 100 Series delivery boxes are an efficient option for many large and extra-large farms, feedlots and ranches to feed more cattle per load. Two models are available with capacities ranging from 1,000 to 1,450 ft3

The new KUHN Knight ProFeed® PF 100 Series delivery boxes are an efficient option for many large and extra-large farms, feedlots and ranches to feed more cattle per load. With a robust and durable design, the ProFeed 100 Series delivery boxes are reliable in every feeding application.

The twin-auger design guarantees a fast, thorough cleanout every time. The choice of standard or grain augers provides you with the ability to tailor your machine to match your feeding application. High-quality drive components and controls provide faster discharge and greater one-pass feeding capabilities.

Features may include:

• The PF 100 Series includes two models: the PF 1130 & PF 1145, both available with 5.5" and 17.75" extensions, resulting in capacities ranging from 1,000 ft3 to 1,450 ft3, each with a 50,000-pound maximum net load rating.

• The PF 100 Series delivery boxes use a simple, effective twin-auger design for quick, consistent discharge. Similar to the famous twin-auger design of the KUHN Knight ProTwin® Slinger® manure spreaders, the raised right auger of the PF delivery boxes eliminates material bridging and works to consistently charge the lower auger on the discharge side. Proven high performance in a variety of manure materials remains true when unloading a variety of feed ingredients and rations.

• Close auger-to-floor tolerances allow for excellent cleanout of the delivery box. Another advantage of the auger delivery box design is the elimination of feed carryaround. Unlike other designs that utilize chain conveyors to move feed, augers do not carry feed around and deposit it in an undesired location.

• With far fewer wear components than other delivery box designs, auger delivery boxes provide superior component lifetime and require minimal daily maintenance. No chains to replace, less daily service points, and the reduction of a cross conveyor are all examples of how the auger delivery box highlights simplicity and longevity over other designs.

• The PF delivery boxes offer many proven heavy-duty components. A 40:1 planetary gearbox is used for speed reduction into the rear of the unit. A splined cast plug is used for the driveshaft-to-sprocket connection. Simple, reliable sleeve bearings are used to maintain shaft alignment. A bolted flange connection is used to mate the drive with the augers.

• A variable displacement hydraulic motor reduces unloading times. The motor is capable of making incremental displacement adjustments based on requested feedout speed from the closed-loop software. Through this incremental speed adjustment, the PF delivery boxes can respond to unload speed requests earlier in the unload process, resulting in 50% faster unloading speeds compared to the previous model.

• New KUHN truck mount controls provide an operator-friendly experience for delivery box control.
