Grabbing bales made quick and easy
Front end loader and implement specialist Quicke has introduced the new Unigrip L+ and XL+ next-generation bale grabs, designed for users who need strength, efficiency, and soft handling in their daily tasks.
This will expand the company’s existing range of seed drills to now include precision seeding technology.
Based in San Vito al Tagliamento, in northern Italy, MaterMacc Spa is known for precision, mechanical and pneumatic seeding technology, chopping machinery and other OEM components.
Pottinger says the Italian manufacturer’s product range, passion for agriculture, location and – above all – workforce complements and shows many parallels to its family- owned business. It adds that the addition follows Pöttinger’s focus on finding new technologies for its established markets, while at the same time further developing existing technologies.
MaterMacc currently employs around 80 staff who – along with the factory premises – will all be retained for continuity, knowledge and experience. In the shortterm, the sales, service and spare parts networks supply will remain the same. However, it is assumed that Pöttinger will contribute its distribution expertise to make the combined product supply chain more efficient.
In other Pottinger news, the recently released MERGENTO VT 9220 belt merger was voted FARM MACHINE 2023- Forage Harvesting, at the recent SIMA Exhibition in Paris.
Awarded by a panel of experienced, trade journalists working for farm magazines, the jury praised the action of how MERGENTO collects the forage cleanly using the pick-up, while leaving dirt and stones on the ground, then cross-conveyor belts to transport the forage and deliver it into a wellformed swath.
