Siloking SelfLine 4.0 Premium

NIR - Near InfraRed Spectroscopy
Feeding based on reliable data

Precise control of the feed ration supports herd health, feed efficiency and consistent milk production.

Visual assessment cannot consistently guarantee maximum milk yield from every kilogram of dry matter.
With Kverneland SILOKING's NIR System mounted at the front of the self-propelled milling head, you can monitor feed composition, rather than relying on estimation.

It pays to take a close look at the quality of the basic forage, ideally at the time of silage removal. Kverneland SILOKING's solution to this task is Near Infrared Spectroscopy (NIRS).

This technology, which is available as an option on all Kverneland SILOKING self-propelled machines, makes use of near-infrared light to analyse the dry matter of the forage components. It enables continuous, non-contact and non-destructive real-time analysis. (This equipment can also be retrofitted.)

As dry matter content can vary significantly within the silo, accurately calculated feed rations are essential.
An incorrectly calculated feed ration brings four major disadvantages:

• Lower feed efficiency
• Metabolic issues for the cow
• Varying milk yields
• Higher amount of feed residue

With Kverneland SILOKING SelfLine, you can avoid this expense, and have a great impact on your profitability.

The Kverneland SILOKING NIR System delivers reliable data for more accurate rations, greater control of herd health and consistent milk production. The NIR System offers particular advantages for silos with layers of feed of different origins and specific weights. As opposed to random dry matter measurement, the system can accurately adjust during feed removal based on the values measured in real time. It knows the dry matter content of the basic feed fed in and can adapt the planned target component.

Kverneland SILOKING DryScan®
Real-time dry matter measurement for self-propelled feed mixers.

Consistent feeding starts with a consistent ration. However, fluctuating dry matter levels in forage can make this difficult to achieve.

Kverneland SILOKING DryScan® provides an intelligent solution to this challenge. The system determines the dry matter content of the feed, in real time, during loading.

As a result, the fresh matter is automatically adjusted so that the ration is consistent every day, supporting stable rumen health, reducing feed waste and avoiding empty feed tables.

When combined with Kverneland SILOKING Feeding Management, feeding can be digitally planned, documented, monitored and optimised, delivering greater accuracy and reliability for modern dairy and livestock operations.

The independent wheel suspension on the Kverneland SILOKING SelfLine 4.0 Premium 2215-22 provides a smoother and more stable drive on uneven yards, poor roads and rough farm tracks. The suspension helps maintain consistent ground contact when travelling between the silo, yard, feed table and different areas of the farm, reducing shocks transmitted through the chassis and cab.

Combined with large tyres and a generous steering angle, the independent wheel suspension supports improved mobility and driving comfort in demanding farm conditions, while reducing stress on the machine during transport and daily operation.

Only available on Kverneland SILOKING SelfLine 4.0 Premium 2215-22 models.

Designed to adapt to different barn layouts. The extremely compact and narrow design of the TrailedLine allows it to operate in confined spaces. Where the conveyor cannot reach the required discharge position, the retractable discharge conveyor provides additional reach.

The discharge position can be extended by more than 350 mm, allowing precise positioning of the feed along the feed barrier.
