The latest mulcher range from Italian manufacturer Nobili has arrived in Australia
Distributed in Australia by Silvan Australia, Nobili’s new BK heavy-duty mulcher range is designed to operate behind tractors of 52 to 130 kW (or 75 to 175 horsepower).
“The Nobili BK range, now available from Silvan Australia nationally, is the ideal choice for larger scale or intensive farm properties, roadside maintenance or local government contractors, or any application where vegetative waste can or needs to be reduced to a fine evenly distributed tilth for breakdown or to add to future productivity,” Silvan Australia’s machinery specialist Gavin Wheatcroft says.
With an international market and reputation for quality and innovation, Nobili regularly releases new mulchers that meet specific market needs.
Available in three models with working widths of 2.3, 2.7 or 3.2 metres, the BK range is “ideal for grass, stubble or pasture topping, breaking down vegetable crop residues, or the reduction of green re-growth or pruning’s up to 90mm in diameter”, says Silvan.
The Nobili BK 230 (2.3 metre working width) is a centre mount choice, while the other two models can be offset behind the tractor or as a centre mount.
Silvan says the BK ranges’ standard heavy-duty oil-bath gearboxes with an over-running clutch, taper-locked pulleys and an electronically balanced rotor, ensures reliability under heavy use conditions.
Each model also has maintenance-free bearings with an opening tailboard and mulching bar that ensures the vegetative material is left as fine mulch.
The BK range can be fitted with a choice of two Y-shaped blades, or a YTY-shaped option with an internal blade or heavy-duty steel hammer blades, making them the ideal solution to reduce all types of residues and leave a fine surface behind.
The BK range also has the option of a rear roller, with the mulching height able to be varied by a choice of adjustable skids or two floating rear wheels.
