High Velocity. High Volume. High Performance!
Art’s Way Miller Pro Forage Blower fills the tallest silos with lower power requirements and a paddle design that generates a powerful air stream. The large hopper increases capacity. |
|
Two models available for maximizing tractor HP.
|
Maximum capacity auger action
-
Auger trough distributor moves the flow of material into the fan housing faster.
-
Large transition opening allows a smoother flow of material into the fan.
-
Large hopper area increase blower capacity and allows easy forage box positioning.
-
12 in. diameter auger feeds forage into the fan at 30 degree angle. Inserts material into the air stream at nearly the same plane as rotation for greater efficiency.
-
Flexible wind guards on hopper sides keep cleanup to a minimum.
-
Auger clutch handle operable from front, side and read of blower.
-
Water hose connection directs nozzle at auger end. A second inlet is positioned through the blower band.
-
Kevlar drive belts last longer and are less susceptible to stretching.
-
Transport wheels are equipped with tapered roller bearings.

High power blower
-
Blower outlet easily removable for quick inspection and maintenance, without loosening housing band.
-
60 inch diameter impeller housing with heavy eight-paddle fan and rotating back plate that provides non-stop filling and virtually eliminates plugging. Paddles made from 40/50 carbon steel resist wear and corrosion.
-
Sharpened adjustable shear bar keeps paddle tips clean. Prevents hair-pinning, carry-over and power loss. All material goes up the pipe.
-
Reversible housing band.

|
Power Paddle design
Engineering tests show that 35 degree paddle angle generates a greater air stream, moving more material with less power.
