"DLG-ANERKANNT" label: Wide Spreading Unit V-Spread | BERGMANN (English)

At the end of March 2022, the German Agricultural Association DLG independently tested three different spreader units on three BERGMANN spreaders at an agricultural holding in Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania in Germany.

- Universal Spreader TSW 6240 W with V Spread (spreader disk ø 1,100 mm, 6 spreader blades)
- Universal Spreader TSW 2140 E with V Spread (spreader disk ø 1,000 mm, 4 spreader blades)
- Manure Spreader M 6240 W with 2 Spread (two vertical beaters, ø 1,050 mm)

In this video, Thomas Klein Ovink, Product Manager at BERGMANN, and Georg Schuchmann, test engineer at the DLG test centre, explain, how the test have been carried out using the example of the Universal Spreader TSW 6240 W.

The tests were prepared by several BERGMANN staff in the week before the tests and also conducted later on. An employee of the DLG test centre in Groß Umstadt near Frankfurt was present for validation of the weighing systems, testing the spreader units and evaluating the results.
All three spreader units were tested in the category Stable manure. The manure used had a dry matter content of 29.9 % and a bulk density of 736 kg/m³ (fresh mass). Tests were performed for two criteria:hrung der Tests erfolgte für zwei Kriterien:

Lateral distribution
Here, 140 test trays with a size of 50 x 50 cm were placed next to each other on the surface for each test to cover the exceptional spreading width (70 m) of the V Spread. The spreaders then drove centrally across the test trays several times. The content of the test trays was evaluated and recorded after each test.

Longitudinal distribution
The spreaders were driven in reverse up against a heap of stable manure that was piled up especially for the tests. The spreaders were then emptied according to a defined procedure and the evenness of unloading measured. Due to their high levels of accuracy, the tests could be performed using the BERGMANN weighing systems integrated in the spreaders. The measurements were taken using the ExaRate weighing compensation system, which continually measures the cargo weight reduction during spreading and compares it with the specified distribution quantity (t/ha). The actual distribution quantity is automatically adjusted to the specified distribution quantity.

All three spreader units achieved the highest available rating and were awarded the “DLG Anerkannt” label.
