Reel Mixers

Our 3 bar spiral reel mixers are designed to be effective in both dairy and beef rations with all processed feed ingredients. This mixer uses a gentle mixing action, lifting and tumbling the ingredients with each rotation. Side augers move the feed from back to front keeping the reel evenly loaded, as well as providing fast and smooth feed delivery.
