Designed and manufactured in our Hampshire factory, the Wessex BFR-180 (patent pending) is a modular round bale feeding and bedding system that can be a configured as a bale feeder (mode 1), a straw spreader and bale feeder combination (mode 2), or a bale feeder with an extension chute (mode 3).
The BFR-180 only requires one tractor or telehandler to operate, and the maintenance is very low with only four grease points and no electrics!
A simple cash saving product
• Very low maintenance costs
• Low running cost
• Minimal fodder wastage – save up to 20% on your annual feed bill
Self-loading process
Loading the BFR-180 is as simple as 1-2-3, using our proven self-loading system.
1. First, the feeding cradle is disconnected by the pull of a rope, or the innovative pre-set unlatching system. The tractor or telehandler backs up and picks up the bale, with integrated spikes. It is then lifted on to the feed-bed.
2. The BFR-180 has a very low cradle that makes bale loading simple and fast.
3. Once loaded the operator then drives the forks back into the feed unit. The machine is now ready to feed!
