Great video guys but the J-star Big Jim is better. It's got an 18 inch auger and hole vs. the Val Metal 16 inch. Also Val Metal has a lot of cross bars obstructing the feed when filling. The Big Jim is much more open. One down side to the Big Jim is, they don't make em anymore. But definately this style of unloader is the way go in big tower silo's. Got to keep it chopped fairly fine too for good results!!!

I've always been curious about those silo unloaders. How do you fill them to get the center hole formed? Has there been any problems with the center hole plugging? I guess you have to put a false floor in the bottom of the silo with a cross conveyor?

If that does 1000lbs in frozen haylage. What would it do in corn silage? Will it work in my Harvestor?

Hanson offers a conversion kit that will fit this unloader in any silo 20' diameter and larger.
If your silo is less than 20 feet in diameter Hanson Silo offers the Posi Trac, Uni Trac, Twin Trac and Valmetal 900 series unloaders.

Awesome! How fast when it's not below zero?

The Valmetal 2000 unloaders we have out have been very consistent unloading high volumes year round, regardless of temperature. Call us at 1.800.THE.SILO for more information.
