Save Time in Comfort

The i73 BaleShear was developed by Tanco to improve the feeding of round bales in winter months. Before the i73, feeding bales was labour intensive — operators had to exit the cab and manually open bales with pocket knives. The job was time consuming, posed safety risks, and made recycling plastic difficult.

Today with the i73 BaleShear, operators can stay within the safety of the cab. Bales up to 1.55m in diameter are picked and split into passageways, diet feeders and feeding rings. The plastic is held by a patented gripping mechanism that positively holds the plastic without piercing it, eliminating the likelihood of tearing. Once the bale is discharged the plastic can be driven to a drop off point.

i75 MultiShear

Efficiently Feed Baled & Bunker Feed

The i75 MultiShear was developed in response to customers who wanted a tool that had all the time-saving and safety benefits of the i73 but also worked with bunker feed. The i75 is a universal tool for handling both baled and bunkered feed.

Powered by two high capacity hydraulic rams, the front and side blades leave a clean face avoiding secondary fermentation. Both maize and silage feeds can be handled from a bunker. Bales can also be split while retaining the plastic and netting. Cranked tines are standard and there are no changes whatsoever when moving from bunker to baled material.
