FlexiFeeder
Reliable, manually controlled round bale chopper
The FlexiFeeder series has been tested, developed and used for more than 25 years.
Product Overview
The FlexiFeeder is an uncomplicated and reliable round bale chopper, and has been on the market for more than 25 years. In 2013 it was upgraded with better paint, central lubrication and support for telescopic legs. In 2017 we introduced 6 year warranty for conveyor belt, chain and cable wheel.
Flexible cutting
FlexiFeeder is equipped with 20 knives as standard to ensure good cutting and high capacity. The knife drum is capable of holding up to 60 knives and is rotating with 380 rotations per minute.
We offer three different types of knives. By changing the type or number of knives, the FlexiFeeder can be customized to suit your forage mass.
Manual control
The FlexiFeeder is controlled by physical switches on the machine. Remote control for the conveyor is available for more flexible use.
Flexible placement
Legs of different lengths is available for stationary use. Alternatively the machine can be mounted to the roof, or on rails for a manual or motorized movable solution. FlexiFeeder can be specified with fixed sides, or doors on one or both sides.
FlexiFeeder with integrated feed table is also available.

FlexiFeeder for straw
In collaboration with farmers all over the country, we have now developed a chopper specifically for straw.
- The chopper is prepared with expansion of straw in mind
- The result is fluffy and well cut forage
- Possible to install 60 knives for dry matter
- Manual control, low power consumption and compact
- May be connected to a system
- Knife setup and rotation speed specifically set up for straw

Accessories
Have a look at available accessories for the FlexiFeeder.
CrossFeeder
The CrossFeeder distributes forage to the left or right side of the feed alley.
Available in short (110 cm) and long (170 cm) versions.
Funnel
The funnel gathers the forage towards the middle of the machine width. Is used if it is desired to feed through a hole in the floor or a narrow alley.
Is available in short an long version.
Beam trolley
Beam trolley for suspending and moving machine along rails. Available in manual and motorized versions.
Remote control for conveyor
Remotely controlling the conveyor opens up for easier forage handling, especially in tight places or when machine is placed on another floor.
Knives
Standard knives. Our most aggressive knives with wavy edge for high capacity.
Knives for dry matter. Straight-edged knife to prevent jamming when cutting dry matter.
Knives for reduced flow. Shorter knives reduce the flow. Often used in automated systems where limited capacity is required.
Reinforced knife. Straight-edged knife made from thicker goods to increase longevity. Compatible only with 4 mm reinforced knife drum.
The knives are available in sets of 20 knives, including bolts and wear template.
Free-standing feed table
A feed table enables the possibility of storing multiple bales for easy loading into the cutter.
The free-standing feed table is used if you already have a bale chopper, or want to use a feed table combined with a rail-going solution. The feed table is available in different lengths.
Maintenance
Are your knives good enough?
The knives are regarded as the heart of the machine.
Over time, the knives will become dull. This is observed by longer cutting time and poorer cutting, and is fixed by sharpening the knives. After repeated sharpening, the knife may be worn out. Check height and shape by comparing the knife with our knife wear template.
Straw or frozen mass?
Making the forage rotate in the chopper is fundamental for optimal function. Straw or frozen grass may in some cases rotate poorly in older machines.
The remedy in these cases may be to to weld knobs to the carriers on the conveyor.
