2025 Vermeer® Vertical Mixers VT970 Premium Twin-screw

Three points of contact with the tub floor, made up of two bi-pulse legs and the leading edge of the screw, help move material from the tub to the discharge conveyor for consistent distribution along a bunk line or tire.

Achieve a consistent, thorough mix with two overlapping screws and offset baffles on the tub wall. Instead of feedstuffs remaining in either the front or the back of the tub, the tub construction encourages the material to travel between the screws.

Optimize rations and achieve defined targets when feeding in multiple pens with a 4-point scale. Plus, wireless connectivity makes load weights accessible from a smart device.

bidirectional discharge makes feeding convenient. Feed either on the right or left side of the alley when traveling between pens or multiple buildings.

Looking for a large-capacity mixer but have terrain constraints? The VT970 twin-screw vertical mixer gives operators the option to configure a single axle with dual tires or a tandem-spring axle with four large super-single tires.

Equipped with 3/8-in (9.5-mm) tub material and 1-in (2.5-cm) floor thickness, this mixer is built to withstand load after load.

Help machine life and get ready for long-lasting performance with two extra heavy-duty planetaries powering the screw.

Designed for strength, longevity and versatility, the durable screws are made from abrasion-resistant, heat-treated AR200 steel.

Operators can be confident their mixer will withstand various types of feedstuffs with minimized rust and maximized durability by adding stainless steel liners.

Experience maximized strength, durability and longevity with thicker sidewalls, thicker tub floor and thicker screw flighting compared to the VT970 twin-screw vertical mixer.

Premium models are equipped with an additional remote display for visibility to the accurate weight-reads from the 4-point scale.

Features may include:

  • Reap all the benefits of the VT970 plus even more durability and longevity
  • Nearly 1,000 ft3 (28.3 m3) in capacity plus an overlapping screw design that pulls feed from opposite chambers for a quick mixing process
  • Optimize ration costs and help reduce feed waste
