All results are calculated automatically when any value changes

This APP may help to estimate the resulting silage bulk density

We give You a tool to find the most importand impact factors on silage bulk density which is of course the tractor weight but may be more affected by the layer thickness of the incomming/pushed up crop material


filling length = this part of the silo which is actuall filled with the incomming crop

1) gives You the number of layers needed in case of the choosen layer thickness delivering rate
2) gives the number of tractor passes from left to right side per newly filled layer
3) gives the total number of passes and delivered material per hour
4) max. compaction/over-rolling time for the choosen delivery rate
5) e.g. 5% are 3 minutes per hour for ...
6) time for one passage from silo bottem to top or vice versa of the currently filled area
7) speed of compacting tractor

Calculations based on Muck&Holmes V1.0
