Vogelsang & BeTEC Launch Joint Slurry Applicator Range

Effective from September 1, the partnership has confirmed the launch of a joint range of slurry application booms, dribble bars and trailing shoes from both companies, marketed under the brand name Vogelsang-BeTEC. As part of the newly established partnership, manufacturing of all slurry application booms will move to the BeTEC site in Slovenia.

Vogelsang’s head of sales for agricultural technology and biogas in Germany, Henning Ahlers, spoke about the reasoning behind this combination of slurry machinery portfolios.

“We will be able to offer our customers – from large-scale operations and contract farming businesses to part-time farmers – an even wider range of slurry application technologies, working widths and price segments. The partnership will combine the German company’s comprehensive expertise in sales and after-sales with BeTEC’s effective construction and production processes.”

Product ranges will include the BlackBird series of trailing shoe applicators, available in two new models, a RedLine and GreenLine, both of which are built on the Vogelsang framework.

GreenLine, identifiable by green painted parts, is a more price-focused range that will be supplied with the BeTEC OptiCut distribution technology and standard skids. The more striking RedLine range will offer an advanced applicator selection that will feature the Vogelsang leaf springs alongside the ExaCut distribution heads and PrecisionFlow skids. There will also be the option of additional packages including DoubleFlow and NightShift.

Some existing products including the SwingUp, SwingMax and UniSpread ranges will continue production unchanged. The Umbilical range will include the UniSpread and the BackPack Series, which will be offered alongside the Stylo, the Hilly, and the Cameleon and Cameleon Light Series of machines.

Spare parts sales and servicing for both existing and new machines will be handled by Vogelsang.
