Strong uptake of drop in reel system
2nd August 2024
Since the launch of the Scorpion reeler at LAMMA in January 2024, sales and supply of the drop in reel system have had a strong uptake, Wox Agri Services says.
The grant window has proven to cause a few delays in preparation to supply within the paperwork trail; however, Wox expects sales to increase on the year as demand for high performing durable equipment grows.
The Scorpion Drop in reeler system can carry up to 1,000m of 6in pipe and couplings in a random wrap form for maximum utilisation of space for deployment and retrieval.
Along with Metal 360 shug couplings as a coupling of choice the set-up is aimed at the swift application of liquid manure supply and application. The Metal 360 couplings are supplied across the UK in all sizes from stock of 4in right through to 12in. The system is in place for the safe and secure connection of pipes under pressures of manure and air from 1-Bar through to 14-Bar. The couplings are certified and tested for this application and are a game changer for a simple high performing coupling system, Wox reckons.
The company adds that it produces a comprehensive range of couplings and adapters which allow the slick operation and interchangeability between traditional Bauer and Stortz fittings. This includes flanges and adapters for all manner of road crossings, pumping and mixing solutions.
It produces a range of pull couplers for the dribble bar and trailing shoe, which are fully able to withstand the rigours of pulling the drag pipe in the field with the maximum load on withstanding the pulling and twisting when engaged with headland turns and manoeuvres.
Fixed Tempest reelers allow the option of carrying quantities from 800–1,200m of 6in pipe, both front or rear mounted with the front pipe squeezers. The reelers are proven in heavy duty applications for pipe retrieval and as we see the ever-increasing demand for output mounting 7.25in is becoming more commonplace.
Pumping expectations are always increasing, and the Walrus PTO pump is now well established as a fully operating pumping and mixing station with jetting capacity to match. The Walrus pump unit is now fully available as an engine driven unit, with options on engine and pump size and types to be brought on line in the near future.
