Choosing MERGENTO F ALPIN means choosing the highest quality forage and maximum reliability in alpine farming.
The alpine merger collects the forage from the ground using its pick-up. Without further contact with the ground, the cross conveyor belt transports the forage to the swath. This has two major advantages:
Dirt and stones remain on the ground because they are not contacted by the pick-up tines.
Disintegration losses are reduced to a minimum because the forage is not raked across the ground - an advantage especially with dry hay.
The PÖTTINGER merger also ensures maximum reliability - whether working along contours, uphill, downhill or on the level. The controlled pick-up, crop press rollers and recessed cross conveyor belt work together to produce perfect results.
The heart of the MERGENTO merger is the conveyor unit, consisting of pick-up, crop press roller, and cross conveyor belt.
These three components are perfectly coordinated to provide a smooth flow of forage from the ground to the swath - regardless of whether you are operating on the flat, along contours, or up and down steep slopes.
The MERGENTO F ALPIN is mounted on the front of the tractor. This means that you do not drive the tractor over forage lying on the field, which gives you two major advantages:
When working along slopes, the tractor does not slip on the cut grass.
The forage is not pressed into the ground by the tractor tyres, because it has already been cleared to the side onto a swath.
