Superior performance in all sizes!

The PROFILE 2 DS range starts at 12 m3 and features models with capacities up to 20 m3 - ideal for farms with height and width constrants feeding fibrous rations!

These models are equipped with small diameter mixing augers that require less power.

The PROFILE 2 DS twin-auger vertical mixer wagons feature a simple and highly functional design with a low loading height. The wheels are mounted under the tub to reduce overall machine width to just 1.85 m, enabling the machine to fit in different distribution configurations.

Exceptional mixing quality at a reduced cost

Power requirement: quality mixer wagons at an unbeatable price!

7 hp per tonne of mixture: save money on fuel!
The lower power requirement of the PROFILE range is the result of several technological designs:

Auger design: the continuous helix of the mixing auger gravitates the fodder from the bottom of the tub to the top without any forced movements. The mixing process is performed easily and smoothly for greater fuel efficiency.
Auger diameter: the smaller the auger diameter, the shorter the scraper arm, resulting in reduced power requirement.
Auger rotation direction: in twin-auger vertical mixer wagons, the augers rotate the mixture in a figure-of-eight pattern. This ensures regular fodder circulation and prevents material from blocking up against the sides of the tub for improved energy efficiency.

The optional two-speed gearbox further reduces the power requirement. This option is recommended for farmers who travel long distances with a loaded mixer wagon. Reducing the auger speed will allow for smooth start-up before the ration distribution phase.

Exclusive KUHN mixing auger!

The double-pitch angle of the auger enables quick breakdown of feed, no matter how full the machine already is.

To reduce power consumption, the PROFILE range is equipped with asymmetric knives which have a “self-cleaning” effect and also have a progressive-cutting knife edge for constant torque transfer. The continuous auger helix naturally moves the fodder from the bottom to the top of the tub for even mixing with no forced movements, reducing fuel consumption during the mixing process.

The auger material and design has been selected to provide maximum resistance to wear.

Tried and tested transmission and drive systems!

The machine transmission is made up of a two-stage bearing therefore even during breakdown of a whole bale, stress is absorbed.
The combination of the pre-stressed subframe and the solid auger base provides maximum resistance to the load bearing in the bottom of the machine.
The unit is fitted on a collar which reaches up to approximately half the auger height, thus protecting the transmission from lateral forces exerted on the auger.

Tried and tested transmission: representing KUHN's extensive experience and technological expertise.

Mixing: precision, with a 1.2% margin of error!

The mixing quality of KUHN TMR mixers is hitting new heights. Analysis of five samples taken at eight different points of a freshly distributed feed-out showed that, the dry matter variation coefficient is just 1.2% after a mixing time of only 3 minutes (PROFILE twin-auger vertical mixer submitted to German DLG test No. 6086F).

Homogeneous fodder distribution is guaranteed over the longest feed troughs, ensuring that each animal benefits from all the nutritional values of the ration.

Perfectly controlled fill rate

The polygonal shape of the front, rear and sides of the tub (specific to the PROFILE models) ensures smooth fodder circulation. The entire volume of the tub is used during chopping and mixing. There are no “dead” zones or fodder build-up: every m3 is used! The double-pitch angle of each auger guarantees quick breakdown of feed, no matter how full the machine already is.

Weighing system: choose your level of data

With your KUHN DG600 weighing terminal, your can choose the optional "DTM ADVANCE" software for data transfer

Programmable weighing unit: simple, functional and intuitive

With the KUHN DG600 terminal, you optimise your time by carefully preparing the quantities of the different ration ingredients. Simply program the rations per head and per batch before loading the TMR mixer. In the following days, all you have to do is validate or modify the number of animals in each batch so that the weighing unit automatically indicates the quantities to be loaded. And if you want to take data management a step further, choose the KUHN DG8000-IC terminal.

KUHN DG600 programmable weighing system: your terminal’s interface is intuitive thanks to its double LCD screen that displays the weight and the name of the ingredient simultaneously. You can name your ingredients, distribution points and recipes. Your weighing terminal can store 99 recipes composed of 24 ingredients, and can be used to prepare 48 feed batches. You can program by head or by total weight. You can also generate ingredient consumption reports.

KUHN DG8000-IC programmable weighing system: your weighing terminal can store 99 recipes composed of 24 ingredients each, 99 ingredients, 128 feed batches and 48 customers. You can change the number of animals and the weight of the ingredients on the terminal. You program the terminal using the "DTM IC Cloud" software: by head, total number of animals or percentages.
The KUHN DG8000-IC weighing terminal is compatible with the NIR dry matter measuring system and the feed tracking system (automatic feeding per batch).

With the KUHN Datamix VIEW, your assistant becomes the secondary display you'll never leave behind!
with the KUHN Datamix CONTROL, your assistant becomes the control centre for your machine's weighing system.

Two different interfaces to fit how you manage your feed-related information

Direct side feeding for rapid feed flow

A wide selection of possible combinations!

For each member of the herd to get their maximum feed intake, the feed-out of the mixed ration must be evenly mixed and distributed across the whole length of the feed passage. It’s important to reduce competition for feed between livestock in the same pen. All animals must get their fair share of quality mixed rations!

When the animals return to the buildings after grazing, providing a homogeneous ration is the best solution to avoid them pushing and shoving for feed.

The PROFILE range features an impressive selection of feed-out solutions to ensure distribution of the rations in all the types of buildings. Whether you have sheds with no separate exit, troughs with retaining rims or very narrow feed passages, feeding tables on both sides of the passage requiring simultaneous distribution, or other constraints requiring distribution from the rear of the machine, you will find what you need in the PROFILE range.

Distribution chutes: express delivery!

Distribution chutes can be fitted upon request to the right or left or rear central for feed delivery into all building configurations.

The doors are the largest on the market (their width represents over 60% of the auger diameter).

The PROFILE mixer wagon is fitted with a deflection plate to avoid driving over the feed-out. The protective canvas prevents fodder projections beyond the trough.

Distribution chutes for feed delivery into all building configurations

Tilting conveyors to adapt to all types of troughs

The PROFILE range can be fitted with a large selection of hydraulically tilting conveyors to deliver feed to raised troughs. The tilting conveyors come in different lengths and are designed with PVC belts.

They start up automatically when the hatch door is opened to prevent forage build-up at the tub outlet.

The PROFILE tilting conveyors are quiet, always clean and easy to service: simply adjust the belt tension on a regular basis.

Equipment

K-NOX Mixing augers and K-NOX doubling plates: Long Life Solutions!

K-NOX substantially increases the life expectancy of the auger - the central component of the mixer which determines its level of performance. The entire mixing auger is made of K-NOX: the whole unit is protected (coil, cone, scraper) therefore it is more resistant to the wear and tear caused by friction, acidic feed and general corrosion.
For even greater durability, the K-NOX doubling plates are available as an option.

Magnets: play it safe with your animals!

Metal trap: play it safe!

All the models in the PROFILE range can be fitted with a magnet on the mixing auger. This system considerably reduces intestinal injuries caused by the ingestion of metal fragments contained in the fodder (barbed wire, scrap wire etc.).

Hydraulic counter-knives for fibrous rations that require more chopping

For fibrous rations that require more chopping, add the option of two hydraulic counter-knives. Then you can extend and retract the counter-knives as needed from the tractor cab.

KUHN mixers: fingertip control of your machine

Electric controls: fingertip control of your machine

The user-friendly electric system provides you with fingertip control of your machine. The small control box can be fitted in any type of tractor cab.

Dealing with an expanding herd and the new buildings layouts

A machine that can adapt to your herd size and ration type

KUHN mixers grow with your farm. As a result of an increase in your herd size or a change to ration components, you may be required to change the capacity of your TMR mixer. Depending on your model in the PROFILE range, you can increase your machine’s capacity by at least 66 %.

User Stories:PROFILE 2 DS

Scott Kingston Dairy Farmer
“The mixing capability is important for all rations, but particularly for the transition diet where we’re including a significant amount of straw,” adds Scott. “We don’t use a separate straw-grinder but instead use the Profile to chop and mix the straw into the transition diet.''
