AP - Model Series VDC - Double Sided Discharge Auger Bucket
From Agriculture - Auger Buckets
The VDC types are equipped with two augers so that the auger bucket can discharge the feed both left and right. By the use of a control valve both augers can also rotate simultaneously. On both the VDC and the VDCE types the auger suspension is constructed to ensure minimal resistance of the feed during discharging. The hydraulic motor is protected by a shearbolt overload protection. The models for wheel / front loader are standardly delivered with electric/hydraulic control, the rear-mounted models come as standard with a manual control valve but can optionally be provided with an electric valve. The VDC is suitable for use to tractors or wheel / front loaders and can be equipped with all common quick attachments. Widths from 120 to 253 cm, the capacity varies from 700 to 1875 litres.

Fodder beet / potato cutting device
The fodder beet cutting device enables the AP auger bucket to cut and discharge fodder beets and/or similar products within a single operation. The fodder beet cutting device is equipped with a 8-bladed rotating knife with blades from tempered manganese steel and is supplied with a protective cap, a heavy hydraulic motor and, on type VDCE, an extra protective bracket on the bucket. For the cutting of potatoes a 10 or 12 bladed knife is optionally available.
Mechanical or hydraulic shut-off valves
The use of a shut-off valve increases a safe operation of the AP auger bucket and prevents loss of feed. The mechanical shuf-off valve opens by the pressure of the feed during discharging and closes automatically by the spring pressure if the discharging stops. The hydraulic shut-off valve is especially recommended for the discharging of feeds with a low dry matter content and / or a fine structure. Hydraulic shuf-off valves guarantee a virtually hermetically sealed auger opening.
Stainless steel wear bottom or plate
Animal feed often obtain aggressive and acidic substances that can damage the machine. To prevent damaging, the AP auger bucket can be provided with a stainless steel wear bottom or plate on the inside of the bucket. This extends the service life of the auger bucket during intensive / frequent use.
Rotor cutter device
All VDC’s from 1.75 m can be equipped with a rotor cutter, provided with a protective cap. This is (mainly) used to cut and shovel maize and dose it afterwards. The rotor cutter is coupled to the auger bucket and is hydraulically driven.
Three-, four- or fivefold electrically-hydraulically controlled control valve
If the AP auger bucket is provided with multiple options, more control valves are required. Because the wheel loader or tractor often do not have sufficient double functioning valves and to avoid a tangle of hydraulic hoses an electrically-hydraulically controlled control valve can be built-on. All functions can then be controlled in an instant.
Mixing device
The VDC types 2000ZU and 2250ZU can be provided with a mixing auger that is driven mechanically by a cam wheel and thus practically free of maintenance. This machine is a separate category within the series VDC and therefore differs in some aspects from the standard rear and front mounted buckets (see Technical specifications VDCX).
