Brandt Generation B U-Trough Auger Delivers the Reliability Farmers Want
November 5, 2024
All-new model increases farm productivity, maximizes uptime, and lowers operating costs.
Regina, Saskatchewan– Farmers can start getting ready for next harvest with a new equipment option: an auger designed specifically for their needs. The Brandt 1345 Generation B U-Trough Auger was built in response to customer feedback to ensure it is as valuable to the farm as possible.
“We asked farmers what they wanted in an ideal auger, and then we built it,” said Jason Klassen, Brandt Senior Vice President Sales—Manufactured Products. “
With a versatile design that’s optimized for greater capacity and more bin setups, Brandt Generation B U-Trough Augers are built to power through the toughest conditions, move more grain, deliver more uptime, and maximize return on investment.”
Farmers have responded positively to the new auger.
“Its capacity stands out to us. We haven't had another U-Trough that will move the amount of product that this one will," Nolan Chermcora of Lindgren Farms in Norquay, SK, said. After testing the Generation B Auger, Logan Connor from Matador Farms in Beechy, SK, was impressed by its durability.
"I couldn’t plug it. I tried by best, but I couldn’t plug it,” he said.
Improvements and innovations of the next generation of Brandt auger include:
- Upgraded, three-bearing gearbox to provide higher load tolerance, and a solid driveline and chain coupler to ensure smooth, reliable operation.
- Triple-banded belt that delivers maximum traction and a true parallel-link belt tensioning system to maintain ideal power transfer.
- Centralized operator control station that includes the ignition, throttle, electric clutch, and EZMOVE operations in one convenient location.
The auger has been redesigned from the ground up for ease of access to all components, reliable operation, and peak performance for all crops and conditions. Plus, its gentle handling protects crops from damage, maximizing profit margins. And it does this all at the impressive rate of up to 9000 bushels per hour.
