Buyer's guide
About our chaff cutters
A chaff cutter (also called a forage chopper or silage cutter) reduces long fibrous crops into short, uniform pieces that cattle, sheep, goats and horses eat with less waste. Our range covers flat-feed 9ZT machines with automatic feed rollers, power-saving 9ZP disc cutters with high-throw blowers, and combination models that cut, crush and grind grain in one frame.
Every model is offered with a choice of electric motor (220 V single-phase or 380 V three-phase), gasoline engine or diesel engine, so it can run on a grid-connected farm or in the field. Blades are hardened manganese steel and can be reground or replaced from our spare-parts stock.
Answers
Chaff Cutters: common questions
Can't find what you need? Ask an engineer — we reply within one working day.
What capacity chaff cutter do I need?
Estimate 25–35 kg of fresh fodder per adult cow per day. A herd of 50 cattle needs roughly 1.5 t per day, which a 1.8 t/h machine processes in under an hour. For 200+ head or for silage-making, choose a 6 t/h or 12 t/h model.
Can one chaff cutter process both dry and wet material?
Yes. Our 9ZT and multi-function models chop wet green grass and silage as well as dry straw and hay. For very dry corn stalk we recommend the crusher (kneading) rotor, which shreds fibres so animals digest them better.
Which power source should I choose?
Use a three-phase electric motor where grid power is stable — it is the cheapest to run. Choose a diesel engine for remote fields or unreliable electricity, and the tractor-PTO version if you already own a 25 hp+ tractor.
