Shelbourne Powerspread
The Powerspread from Shelbourne Reynolds is a range of side discharge manure spreaders with the ability to spread all types of farmyard dung including dry poultry litter and industrial wastes accurately and with a fine fragmentation.
The range comprises of the general purpose farm spreader the Powerspread Dairy which will spread all types of slurry and straw yard dung and the Powerspread Contractor which is aimed at the large mixed farm and professional user and will spread all types of waste including poultry litter and dry industrial wastes with ease.
Common design features to both models are the tapered tub design and unique contra rotating auger that pulls dung from both the front and rear of the spreader to the patented centrally opening door.
This produces a ‘boiling' action inside the spreader when applying a fine coating of manure and reduces the stresses on the body of the spreader. The door of the Powerspread is vertically lifting thus allowing the full width of the impeller to be used at all times, the impeller itself is overshot in design, or spinning upwards, at 700rpm which makes for a very fine fragmentation, which is essential for grassland work, and gives spread widths in excess of 18 metres.
