Lely and Sgariboldi See Life in Red!

Lely is taking advantage of the launch of the new Sgariboldi Gulliver self-propelled paddle mixer to start a red revolution across its mixer range.
The mixers from Italian manufacturer Sgariboldi, which until now have been distributed in yellow by Lely France, will in fact be marketed in the red colour of the Dutch company.

To meet growing demand for self-propelled mixers, Lely offers a wide Sgariboldi range: self-propelled mixers with a vertical auger (Grizzly), a horizontal auger (Mav and Combi) and paddles (Gulliver).

The Gulliver self-propelled paddle mixer, exclusive to Sgariboldi, is the flagship product of the range and comes in two series: the 5000 series with models 5011 (11m3) and 5014 (14m3), and the 4000 series with models 4018 (18m3) and 4021 (21m3). All are available in a Farm version (for use in the farmyard) and a Track version (approved for road use).

The new cab with its streamlined design reinforces the 'revolutionary' concept of the Sgariboldi Gulliver. In addition, thanks to the chopper unit integrated behind the loading cutter, forage is cut cleanly and evenly.

Delicate forages, meanwhile, are preserved by being loaded directly by the new silage cutter without passing through the chopper.

This delivers the mixing quality of a paddle machine while retaining the option of adding fibre to the ration.

Furthermore, automatic conveyor speed management ensures better distribution of forage in the tank, saving time and improving mixing homogeneity.

The silage removal function is performed by a cutter 1,50m or 1,90 m wide, and the silage arm reaches a height of 4,20 m to 5 m depending on the model.

These Sgariboldi self-propelled mixers are also distinguished by the use of one hydraulic pump per function. Maximum power is therefore available when several movements are performed simultaneously.

Power is provided by a John Deere engine of 134 or 177 horsepower on the 5000 series and 193 horsepower on the 4000 series.

Finally, the Gulliver self-propelled mixers stand out for their very compact size (with a height of only 2,45 m for the 11m3), which should allow perfect maneuverability in livestock buildings.

You can discover the new range of Sgariboldi Gulliver self-propelled mixers in Lely colours at Innov'Agri Sud Ouest in Ondes, as well as at the Space in Rennes (Open air, Plot 1, Stand C 16) and at the Sommet de l'Elevage in Cournon d'Auvergne (Aisle F, Stand 122).
