V-MIX feeding equipment
V-MIX external loaders
One, two or three mixing augers
The distinctive feature of our V-MIX mixer wagons is their compact design – whether they are slim or narrow or equipped with one, two or three mixing augers. These trailed feed mixer wagons are equipped to mix tremendous amounts of feed thanks to their remarkable volume utilization and deliver the feed in the tightest of spaces. Each of these mixer wagons is tailored to the individual requirements of the farmer / their operation.
One-of-a-kind in terms of both size and equipment
The mixer wagons of the V-MIX series are available in capacities between 3.5 m³ and 46 m³. All of BvL’s mixer wagons are customizable and can be equipped with individual discharge options or accessories. Benefit from our large selection that offers more than 1,000 custom options and learn more about these mixer wagons “Made in Germany”.
Auger matched perfectly with the hopper
The power mixing auger forms the core element of every V-MIX Plus mixer wagon. It conserves the structure of the load inside the mixing hopper to the highest degree possible. This level of preservation is ensured by its particularly gentle and smooth mixing process. The power mixing auger of the vertical mixer wagon is adapted perfectly to the shape of the mixing hopper – as small as possible, but as large as necessary. This design makes it possible to utilize the full volume of the mixer wagon – regardless of the usable capacity – without the need to cut back on the required quality of the mixture. This helps save both time and money. By the way: The power mixing auger can be optimally adjusted to various types of feed by adjusting the knives.
Why is the structure of the feed so instrumental?
The feed needs to have structure to allow the cattle to ruminate properly. Structure is what helps maintain the optimum pH value in the rumen. What is more, structured feed lowers the risk of such health problems as displacements of the bovine abomasum, and it boosts feed intake and improves overall feed conversion efficiency.
More accurate and uniform discharge
The mixer wagons included in the V-MIX series offer every farmer a host of different options when it comes to dispensing feed. Possible options include: EDS doors on both sides at the front or the rear or at the center rear / at the rear right and left in the corner of the mixing hopper. Customers can also opt for a cross conveyor belt at the front or the back. EDS, by the way, stands for exact-direct-fast. This patented system provides for an extremely consistent discharge – even without a conveyor belt. The doors on the mixer wagon are arranged so that they are positioned asymmetrically to the center of the hopper.
With the side doors on the right and left, the feed can be discharged simultaneously on both sides – with utmost speed and process reliability. Another advantage is that the feed is deposited on the side of the mixer wagon in a loose swathe that is not at risk of being run over. The patented rubber cover of the EDS doors minimize the risk of injury for both people and animals.
Leaving the choice of the right discharge option up to you
BvL’s goal is to always offer mixer wagons that are perfectly adapted to the location of their use. This is why none of their machines come standard with a discharge. It is, therefore, up to the farmer to find the discharge options that fit their requirements and the conditions on site best. The choices BvL offers are nearly limitless if you consider the exhaustive range of discharge accessories – whether it be a feeding chute (mechanical or hydraulic) or an elevator that accurately transports the feed to the feed troughs. But, BvL does not stop there: the other options available for the mixer wagon are legion as well. From reduction gearboxes to different drive shafts and camera systems to an addition scale or programmable weighing system to a low or high hitch and an additional straw blower – we offer a plethora of equipment options and extras for our mixer wagons.
V-LOAD Unloading technology
Patented double-blade cutting system with a split transversal blade
BvL double-blade cutting system (type Megastar/Master/Megastar HD)
The V-LOAD Cutter Megastar, Megastar HD and the V-LOAD Cutter Master use a split transversal blade for cutting. Each of the front knives runs towards its counterpart – eliminating shear forces. This movement allows the cutting bar to work its way through the silage smoothly and effortlessly. The knives as well as the entire cutting bar are made of highly wear-resistant steel (HB400), providing for a long service life.
V-MIX Drive Self-propelled
Combing instead of cutting or milling
BvL’s self-loaders are distinguished by a feed removal that is particularly gentle on the structure of the feed. Its gentle removal transforms the feed into an excellent basis for a Total Mixed Ration (TMR) that is of first-rate quality and highly structured. Responsible for this gentle removal is the patented profiled roller, which forms the core of the agile self-propelled V-MIX Drive mixer wagons.
A mixing auger adjusted to perfection
The power mixing auger of the self-propelled mixer wagon is adapted perfectly to the shape of the hopper – as small as possible, but as large as necessary. This design makes it possible to achieve a high level of tank volume utilization as well as mixing process that is smooth and gentle on the structure of the material. The mixing auger of the self-propelled mixer wagon can be optimally adjusted to various types of feed by adjusting the knives.
Why is the structure of the feed so instrumental?
The feed needs to have structure to allow the cattle to ruminate properly. Structure is what helps maintain the optimum pH value in the rumen. What is more, structured feed lowers the risk of such health problems as displacements of the bovine abomasum, and it boosts feed intake and improves overall feed conversion efficiency. The long years of experience BvL’s developers boast in the field of gentle unloading technology for silage and other feed components has surely paid off during the engineering of the self-propelled mixer wagon – as is evident in the careful way the profiled roller removes the feed from the silage. The underlying principle: The coarsely profiled teeth of the profiled roller comb the feed out of the clamp. While doing so, they leave the structure of the feed perfectly intact.
Out through the front, the rear or the side
The self-propelled mixer wagon engineered by BvL offers the best solution for any barn when it comes to discharging the previously loaded feed: whether through doors on the side or at the rear or using cross conveyors. We also carry useful options for expanding the capabilities of the discharge systems on your self-propelled mixer wagon that include an elevator or a side shift.
Intelligent self-propelled mixer wagon
The control system built into BvL’s self-propelled mixer wagon affords the user maximum work and operating convenience. The possibility of incorrect operation is excluded by automatic regulation facilities. This type of regulation ensures the maximum degree of on-the-job safety. All hydraulic functions can be variably and independently adjusted. This makes it possible to adjust the self-propelled mixer wagon to the situation in the best possible way and most efficient and at any time during operation. Also contributing to safety plus maximum agility in any situation are the four wheels of the self-propelled mixer wagon (with optional 4-wheel steering and four-wheel drive).
The 100 % on-demand differential lock provides for maximum traction when necessary. Operating convenience is also paramount inside the cab of the self-propelled mixer wagon V-MIX Drive Maximum Plus. As the self-propelled mixer wagon excels at straightforward and convenient single joystick operation, controlling the machine is as easy as can be.
Feed management V-CONNECT Dairy Feeder
Feed management V-CONNECT Dairy Feeder
Easier work, increased feeding efficiency, lower feed costs – with a sophisticated feed management system, this is no problem, as with our mobile V-CONNECT Dairy Feeder system. Exact feed management and intelligent weighing system make it a comfortable companion in everyday operations. Because the farm manager receives his feeding data at a glance and can quickly determine key figures such as contribution margin (IOFC) or feeding efficiency (FCE).
V-MIX Fix stationary mixers
Stationary mixer
A mobile mixer wagon may not prove to be the best solution for every agricultural business. However, every farm definitely wants a feed mixer. Mixing feed right then and there – that is made possible by the stationary mixer V-MIX Fix Plus made by BvL. Whether it is used as a feeding system for automatic feeders, as a processing unit for straw pelletization or other stationary applications – the stationary mixer can be perfectly adapted to the specific requirements and conditions of every barn.
Auger matched perfectly with the hopper
Whether it is fitted in a 1- or 2-auger mixer – the power mixing auger is the centerpiece of the stationary mixer V-MIX Fix. It sets itself apart with the smooth and gentle way it mixes the material loaded into the mixing hopper. This careful mixing process preserves the structure inside the feed to the best possible degree. The power mixing auger of the stationary mixer is adapted perfectly to the shape of the mixing hopper – as small as possible, but as large as necessary. This design makes it possible to utilize the full volume of the mixer wagon – regardless of the usable capacity – without the need to cut back on the required quality of the mixture. This helps save both time and money. By the way: The power mixing auger can be optimally adjusted to various types of feed by adjusting the knives.

No spilling, please
Just like all other BvL mixers the stationary mixer V-MIX Fix comes standard with a welded-on anti-spill ring. This fixture keeps the mixed material from spilling over the edge of the hopper during mixing. Since this mixer is set up stationary, spilled material would be a particular nuisance and tedious to remove. As an added benefit, the structure forms a finishing piece to the hopper that makes it exceptionally stable.
Combine discharge options as you need them
Stationary mixers made by BvL can be equipped with a host of different discharge systems. The available options allow you to dispense the feed through a discharge opening on the side using BvL’s patented EDS (Exact Dosing System) or combine the discharge with others systems by means of elevators, e.g. the special feed conveyor developed by Eder GmbH. The stationary feed mixer – set up immediately in front of or inside the barn – can be used to unload green or mixed feed directly onto the 100 m feed conveyor. This feed conveyor will then transport the base feed directly to the animals. Another excellent resource for first-class advice in the field of automated feeding is our partner Fjøssystemer.
Emptying mode
What happens after the feed has been discharged? The optional emptying mode developed by BvL can then be used to cleanly drain the mixer by flinging any leftover feed off the mixing auger. This option provides the farmer with an easy and convenient way to prepare the mixer for the next load and ensure that the stationary mixer is drained properly and completely.
