The Vermeer VS570 single-screw vertical mixer — the largest in the Vermeer single-screw lineup — is a good fit for small- to mid-size operations.
With a 125-in (317.5-cm) loading height, the VS570 works well for those wanting to get into the 600-ft3 (169.99-m3) volume range without purchasing a twin-screw vertical m... + Read More
Extra heavy-duty planetary
The VS570 is equipped with a planetary built for long-lasting performance. The tractor’s PTO powers the screw through a planetary specifically designed to help extend machine life.
Optional 2-speed gearbox
Operators can take advantage of an optional 2-speed gearbox, ideal for dense rations and efficient mixing. Use the low speed (26 rpm) for mixing starts and the high speed (39 rpm) when cleaning out.
4-point scale with Bluetooth connectivity
Achieving defined targets between multiple feeding locations is less of a hassle with a 4-point scale that helps improve accuracy, when compared to a 3-point scale. Plus, Bluetooth connectivity allows operators to view their load weight from their smart device.
Constant-velocity PTO
Mix on the move with the VS570 single-screw vertical mixer. Constant velocity PTO allows operators to mix the load while traveling down the road or between pens on their farm or ranch.
Efficient cleanout
The bi-pulse legs and leading edge of the screw create three points of contact with the tub floor. These points are designed to help provide an even flow onto the discharge conveyor and clean out the tub at an efficient pace.
Heavy-duty screw
Tough jobs require tough equipment. In a vertical mixer, the screw does the tough work of mixing the feedstuffs, whether that be breaking apart a round bale or working to blend the ingredients evenly. The screws are built with 5/8-in (16-mm) abrasion-resistant AR200 screw flighting. Plus, Vermeer mixers are equipped with a standard full set of hard-surfaced knives.
