The cost effective process

The JUMBO can carry out the operations of crop take-up, chopping, compaction and transport in one machine. That is why the loader wagon is often referred to as a two-person harvest system.

The JUMBO is a multipurpose loader wagon that meets the requirements of a fully-fledged transport wagon. As a result, it can be used for a multitude of tasks apart from grassland harvesting. This ensures high machine utilisation and maximises the cost effectiveness of your JUMBO.

The loader wagon process guarantees the best quality forage and silage at low harvesting costs, making it the harvesting process of the future.

Better ensiling

It is in the silage process that the loader wagon really comes into its own. Each of the fields can be harvested in sequence depending on its intensity. Consequently, the fields to be harvested and the wilted stage of the silage can be alternated flexibly to generate a perfect mix of forage.

To give the vehicles used for rolling sufficient time for compaction, the JUMBO can combine field to farm distances and adjoining areas. This guarantees best quality silage and prevents downtimes in the entire harvest chain. We recommend the PÖTTINGER HARVEST ASSIST app to make this process easier to coordinate.

Because it achieves a high degree of compaction, the JUMBO can transport far more crop than vehicles designed purely for transport. Transport with a JUMBO is therefore significantly more cost effective.

Better compaction

The short chopped length of the crop enables very fast distribution and compaction in the clamp. Thanks to the beater rotors, the forage is unloaded evenly and loosened up again prior to compaction. In addition, the movable front panel on the JUMBO 5000 helps to speed up the unloading process, quickly freeing up the clamp for the next vehicles.

The shorter chopped material is easier to compact because it contains fewer air pockets thanks to its higher bulk density. This leads to a faster pH value reduction to maintain high silage quality.
