4Bale, Self-Contained, Pickup Pulled, Touch Screen Controlled, EZ Ration Processor with a Grain or Cake Bin
This is a hot new item. We are trying to get all the information on it up as soon as possible. We have done some pretty cool things that we just had the patent issued on, allowing us to power this new Pickup Pull EZ Ration Processor with a big Kubota, fuel injected, computer-controlled motor. The awesome thing is you can hook on to it with your pickup and go feed the cows. It can also be pulled with any tractor with a goose-neck ball on the three-point hitch. It has all the power of our truck mounted Kubota Powered model with the mobility of being a Pickup Pulled unit. Every one of these units has a grain or cake bin as standard equipment.
You can level up to the same feed cost saving benefits of our bigger truck mounted and tractor pull EZ Ration Processor models plus have the mobility of being able to pull it with your pickup.
2Bale, Self-Contained, Pickup Pulled, Touch Screen Controlled, EZ Ration Processor
All self-contained Pickup Pull EZ Ration Processor with a small, fuel injected, touch screen controlled, Honda Motor. It is very affordable and the awesome thing is you can hook on to it with your pickup and go feed the cows. Plus enjoy the feed cost saving benefits of our bigger truck mounted and tractor pull EZ Ration Processor models. All new 2Bale Honda powered Pickup Pull Models has a discharge conveyor like its bigger brother the 4Bale Kubota powered Pickup Pull model.
Pickup Pulled EZ Ration Processor has the same patent ability to blend
This Pickup Pulled EZ Ration Processor has the same patent ability as our big truck mounted and tractor pull EZ Ration Processors, that is the patented ability to blend two different types of roughage in any desired ratio to create a cost efficient, nutritionally balance, mix of roughage and all in the proper particle size. We are typically seeing a decrease in the winter feed cost of anywhere from 30% to over 50% by processing and blending roughages in varying ratios, plus the livestock do better. It is a true win win. For example: processing and blending a few pounds of alfalfa with several pounds, of almost any other cheap roughage available, can knock a home run both cost wise and nutritionally. Check out our online Ration Calculator under the Ration Calculator Tab. Put in your own hay test or play with the ones already in it and see how much you could save.
Touch screen controls that the operator has in the cab of the pickup
This is a picture of the touch screen controls that the operator has in the cab of the pickup. This is the screen that is used to start the Honda motor. Touching the green key starts the engine.
The engine control screen
After touching the green key and starting the engine, this is the what the engine control screen looks like. The RPM gauge shows the current RPMs of the motor and the oil temperature gauge depicts the current oil temperature. The HP (or Horsepower) available number and graph indicates how much horsepower is still available that is not currently being used and the current voltage available in the battery is depicted by the v# in the battery icon space. Touching the engine warm up tab will speed the motor up to warm the hydraulic fluid up quicker during cold weather. Touching the red key will kill the motor. Touching the menu tab takes you to the menu. Touching the operation tab takes you directly to the EZ Ration Processor operation control screen.
This is the EZ Ration Processor operation control screen
This is the EZ Ration Processor operation control screen. Touching the discharge conveyor power button and then the knives power button turns them on and green. The RPM # indicates the knife drum speed and the psi # indicates the amount of hydraulic pressure currently required to power them. Touching the Left and Right Floor power button turns them on and green. The % number indicates the Floor speed touching the + & – buttons speed them up or slow them down and the psi # indicates the amount of hydraulic pressure currently required to power them. Varying the floor speeds allows the producer to create varying blends of the hay or feed on the left floor chain with the hay or feed on the right floor chain.
More information about the EZ Ration Processor operation control screen
The Knife PSI Control Floor tab is green when on and red when off. When it is activated, and the Hydraulic PSI required to turn the knives is excessively high indicating the knife drums are about to stall out the floors are paused which stops additional force by the hay being exerted on the knives. Since the additional force was stopped while the knives were still turning as they continue turning and chopping there is less, and less force being exerted on the knives and they quickly regain their speed and torque. As they regain speed and torque the PSI required to turn them goes down and when it reaches a predetermined lower amount the floor starts moving forward again and continue processing the hay. This usually all happens within milliseconds and many times can almost be undetectable by the naked eye watching the feed output. However, the control screen does indicate when it is happening.
Screen to set or adjust the knife pressure automatic floor controls
This screen is where the operator can set or adjust the knife pressure automatic floor controls. Operator can adjust what pressure setting the floors will be stopped at and what lower pressure setting they will restart at. The operator can also adjust the off and on timing in milliseconds to eliminate an arbitrary millisecond spikes setting it off or restarting it sooner than desired. Note: we are dealing in milliseconds sometimes undetectable by the naked eye
