The BFX-180 (patent GB2558243) is a robust, low-maintenance round bale feeder built to meet the demands of modern livestock farming.Designed specifically for livestock farmers to reduce manual feeding, the BFX-180 feeds silage, hay, haylage, and chopped material with ease. Feeding from 1 side at a time which is ideal for tight barns with limited room for the tractor to turn, this allows you to feed one side and then reverse and feed the other side. Its heavy-duty construction delivers consistent performance under frequent use, making it ideal for professional farms.

Designed specifically for livestock farmers to reduce feeding

You can cut waste by up to 20% when you control feed distribution closely, which brings your feed bill down and helps you keep output steady. The whole job can be done with just one machine. You lift the bale, load it into the crate and feed it out in one run. Many farms still use two machines for this task, with one lifting and another feeding, so this helps you save time and avoid extra kit. The setup is quick, the process stays clear, and the work fits easily into different farm routines.

The BFX-180 is part of Wessex bedder and Bale Feeder Range , offering a reliable and efficient solution for professional livestock management. Suitable for farms of all sizes, the BFX-180 delivers the durability and performance required for demanding commercial operations. 

Key Benefits

  • Versatility: Feeds silage, hay, haylage, and chopped forage

  • Ease of use: Quick setup, feeding, and 3 stage latching system

  • Labour savings: Dual access reduces time and effort

  • Durability: Heavy-duty construction for frequent commercial use

  • Cost efficiency: Bales are fed out in rows which stops fodder from being trod in and therefore minimises feed wastage and improves profitability
  • Environmentally Friendly: Stops feed being placed in the same place stopping livestock from defecating on the feed. This will prevent nitrogen leaking into soil and nearby streams.
