A
family of heavy-duty mixers
Since 1952, Oswalt® has been defining
the standards for feeding equipment. We've built our reputation
as industry leaders by leading the way in TMR technology. Our
experience, combined with our innovative design, enables Oswalt®
to continuously offer quality-built, long-lasting TMR auger mixers
to the dairy and beef industries.
D200, 250, 300
and 350 Mixing Action
The bottom
augers rotate clockwise to work together moving material to the
front of the mixer. The offset convergence point on bottom augers
reduces torque which, lowers horsepower requirements during tough
mixing demands and gently lifts the feed to the top augers. To
complete the mixing process, top augers move feed to the rear
creating a waterfall-effect of feed cascading to the bottom augers
for a thorough mix in half the time.
D425, 500 and
575 Mixing Action
The same
quality engineering that we use in our small mixers has been incorporated
in the larger units. Through field-testing, we have designed the
top augers to rotate in opposite directions. This design, along
with having the right distance between the top augers, allows
a faster mixing action and larger total load capacity.
Leading the way
in TMR mixing technology!
Oswalt® mixers produce
superior mix quality and have a proven track record. Oswalt®
delivers a more consistent and more palatable mix, which translates
to better feed conversion and better herd health. Our mixers can
mix small and full batches alike and easily handle a wide variety
of ingredients. With Oswalt®, you'll reap the benefit of an
efficient drive design, which requires less power to mix feed.
You'll save time and money by adding Tuff-Glide liners to speed
material flow, decrease mixing time and increase the life of the
mixing chamber. With Tuff-Glide, wear and tear is on the replaceable,
low cost liners, not the structure of your mixer. Faster mixing
equates to less wear on unit and lower fuel/electricity needs.
What's more, when it is time to trade up for a new mixer, you'll
find Oswalt® to have the highest resale value of any auger
mixer on the market.
Dependable Dowel
Drive
Provides
superior power transfer to the augers. Plus, adds up to 80% more
strength to the drive for rock-solid reliability in tough hay
processing and mixing conditions.
Low Profile Design
Oswalt®
mixers can be easily loaded with skid steer loaders. They fit
into narrow feed ways and low overhead doorways. Oswalt® stationary
models can be loaded with ease from a platform or conveyor. Standard
poly extensions increase mixing capacity and the flexible design
protects the mixer from bucket damage.
Hay Bar Option
Recommended
on all mixers using hay, the Heavy-duty Hay Bar option (standard
on Hay Saw units) helps control the flow of material and dry hay
into the main auger chamber, assuring proper processing and mixing
of all ingredients in as little as three minutes, depending on
ration.
Long-Lasting Tuff-Glide
Liners
An Oswalt®
innovation for over 25 years. The low-friction, self-lubricating,
Tuff-Glide mixer chamber liners reduce mixing pressures as much
as 25%. Tuff-Glide is not affected by acid or moisture and it
resists abrasion. Oswalt®'s mixing pattern, along with Tuff-Glide
liners help feed material flow freely. This reduces horsepower
requirements, virtually eliminates material hang-ups and dead
spots. The result is an unmatched quality of mix, in less time,
with less horsepower and less wear. The liners extend mixer life
and increase the resale value of your mixer. 10-gauge Stainless
Steel Liners are also available for sides and bottom.
Hay Saw
For Incorporating
More Hay into Your Ration
Oswalt®
mixers are superior in their ability to mix all types of ration
ingredients. When equipped with the optional Hay Saw Processor
you can mix more hay in your ration.* The Hay Saw is designed
to act as hundreds of fingers pulling the slabs of hay apart while
ration ingredients are being mixed. It is this pulling action,
instead of actually cutting, which helps maintain particle length
resulting in a more palatable mix.
*Refer to operator's
manual for recommended methods of adding hay to mixer.
Oswalt® Mixers...
Built Tough To Last!
The Oswalt® drive and power
transfer systems are the "heart" of every Oswalt® Auger
Mixer. Compare the simple and sturdy Oswalt® drive and power transfer
system to everybody else and you will see why there is no equal!
Double-Spherical
Bearings
The Oswalt®
D425, 500 and 575 have industrial duty double-spherical pillow
block bearings that are designed for high loads and extended life.
Dependable Dowel
Drive - Patent Pending
The heavy-duty auger drive sprockets are doweled directly into
the massive solid steel auger drive shaft. The entire drive system
runs continuously in an enclosed oil bath for added protection
and longer life. Simple chain and sprocket design is easy to maintain
while providing efficient power transfer.
Quick-Couple Auger
Flange
Auger tube
flanges are bolted directly to the drive shaft with four hardened
bolts. This dependable design allows the augers to be quickly
removed without opening the rear drive doors!
Centralized Grease
Bank
Conveniently
located on the side of the oil bath, this important feature helps
reduce maintenance time and extends equipment life.
Easy-Access Rear
Door(s)
Dual entry
on models 425, 500 and 575, single on models 200, 250, 300 and
350. Behind these doors lie the latest innovation in Oswalt® drive
technology. Large handles and a unique cam mechanism insure a
tight seal for the oil bath while enabling quick and easy inspection
access to the drive system.
No Maintenance
Nyloil Bearings
Sleeve-type,
front, 6¾” diameter auger bearings are made from
1/2” thick Nyloil. Nyloil is a refined nylon material that
is permanently impregnated with oil for superior lubrication,
long life and smooth performance. These Nyloil bearings are not
affected by moisture, dust or the corrosive action of feed acid.
Hydraulically
Adjustable Conveyor
This convenient
hydraulic feature allows the operator to easily set the proper
conveyor height for feeding into a bunk, minimizing wind loss.
When you are done feeding, the conveyor folds up against the side
of the mixer to allow maximum transport clearance. An extended
folding conveyor is also available with an added 13” in
length.
Baffle Magnet
Option
This option
replaces the discharge chute. It bolts to the end of the conveyor
and can be adjusted several ways to match feed flow and bunk requirements.
The attached magnet helps trap unwanted metal.
Rugged Lever Action
Door
The wide
40” discharge door on the D425, 500 and 575 units is controlled
with a hydraulic cylinder mounted to the sturdy body flange. This
robust lever design transfers the pulling load to the rigid body
instead of the sidewall.
Heavy-duty Tires
and Hubs
Massive H40 x 14.5 aircraft tires are mounted to heavy-duty
hubs and axles that provide superior ground clearance and flotation
for muddy conditions.
Operator's Manuel
Holder
Permanently
mounted to the mixer in a dry and secure location, the operator's
manual is always available for quick access and reference.
Stationary Motor
Mount
Available
on the D200, 250, 300 and 350 stationary units. Choice of right
side (pictured) or front motor mount design featuring banded V-belt
drive with easy belt tightening. Choose motor mount location based
on feed room layout.
Optional Light
Kit
The optional
light kit complies with ASAE standards for lighting and marking
for operation on roadways.
Stationary Discharge
Control
Offered
on the D200, 250, 300 and 350 units. An 18” diameter wheel
allows for manual operation of the sliding discharge door, controlling
the flow of feed to the 20” wide discharge opening, for
a complete cleanout to any conveyor. A lock positions the door
to the desired opening. An optional electric door opener is available.
Enjoy the comfort
and convenience of a Truck Mounted Mixer
Everything you need to complete
the mixing and feeding process is right at your fingertips. Easy
to use mixer controls are conveniently located within the cab.
Your choice of indicators is mounted within the operator's view
for monitoring each ingredient as it is loaded into the mixer.
Truck Mounted
Models
Oswalt®
Models D425, D500 and D575 are also available as a truck mount
and have all the same heavy-duty design features as the trailer
units. Some of the benefits of choosing an Oswalt® truck mounted
mixer are ease of operation, maneuverability, increased operator
comfort, and reduced fatigue. The faster transport speed allows
you to feed more livestock in less time, which is ideal for operations
with multiple feeding locations.
