Bellon Mit, a wide range for winter maintenance

January 2018 | Back

The Bellon Mit company from Padua can boast a catalogue full of technologies for winter maintenance. It begins with the SSM50 or SSMX50 salt spreader. Designed for parking areas (including condominiums), sidewalks or hedges. These two applications exploit a fall system through a special distributor roller positioned in the lower part of the machine, while a crushing shaft equipped with vanes allows you to work with more compact salt blocks. The two Bellon Mit salt spreaders are offered with a 50-litre hopper, a 60-centimetres spread width and a total footprint of just 80 centimetres. The salt fall adjustment device is manual. At full load, the SSM50 or SSMX50 can travel a distance of 3-4 kilometres. Also in the salt spreaders segment, the spotlight is on the TPZ line, which has the same construction characteristics as the SSM - roller fall system, crusher shaft - but is different in load and work capacity. The three models of the TPZ series - the 100, the 120 and the 145 - offer a capacity of 150, 260 and 310 litres respectively and are able to travel at full load from 7 (TPZ 100) to 10 kilometres (TPZ 120 and TPZ 145). The TPZ salt spreaders are offered with transmission to the PDF, while the hydraulic transmission is optional. The hopper lift (30°) and the light kit are also optional. Compact dimensions and ease of use also characterize the TSBM snow plough blades. Even though they are designed for medium-low power tractors, these applications have all the strengths of professional equipment, starting from the independent sector security system with spring return. The device allows the blade to tilt 33° (to the right or left) thus protecting the tractor from shocks due to impacts, while a tilting device allows the blade to adapt to the profile of the road surface. Similar to the TSBM blade, the TSBV model is different from it for the possibility of working with four different configurations - ploughshare, spoon, tilted to the right, tilted to the left - that enhance its operational versatility.
