Double Trough Bale Feeders

Double Trough Bale Feeders
Engineered to feed with confidence, the McIntosh Double Bale Feeder is built for farmers who demand strength, stability, and feeding efficiency they can rely on.
Proven over years of reliable performance, this heavy-duty machine is designed to perform in all conditions. The cradle sits between the chassis rails rather than on top, lowering the centre of gravity for safer operation on slopes and uneven ground. A wider cradle reduces the risk of running over feed, especially in muddy or windy conditions.
Aggression pins and the short cradle design work together to tear apart tight or mouldy bales more effectively, providing a consistent, even feed-out. The double-ram loading arm lowers bales gently into place, protecting both the feeder and the bale from sudden impact.
