LEO TMR mixers excel at processing round bales into Total Mixed Rations (TMR). The LEO advantage comes from the two piece knives,  sidewall design, auger reliefs and v shape leading auger edge, hockey stick kicker, and simply mixes faster due to the many knives on the machine. LEO machines boast the most knives on the auger and the only machine with restrictor plates in the sidewall that are knives themselves. (Please see the LEO Patent Section that covers LEO Patents)

  Here’s a guide to ensure smooth operation:

• Mixer Size: Consider bale size, type, and moisture content. Denser bales (hard core) require more space than lighter ones (soft core). LEO offers various mixer sizes to accommodate your needs.
• Processing Stages: Initially, bales are chopped coarsely, requiring more space than the final, denser mix. A mixer sized for the final mix volume might overflow during initial processing.
• Bunching: Coarse forage may bunch in one end of a TMR mixer initially until preocessed down. A larger mixer reduces spillage risk.
