BvL Megastar Silage Block Cutters

Preserving silage quality is critical — and that’s why the BvL V-LOAD Silage Block Cutter Megastar delivers with clean cuts, consistent density, and less waste. At the core of its performance lies a unique, patented double-blade system — designed to provide an effortless, smooth, and clean cut. This precision helps retain silage density, minimise oxygen penetration, and ultimately reduce fodder losses caused by reheating.

This isn’t just theory. On a Southland dairy farm, the Megastar was put to the test on 25% DM silage, cutting blocks between 1,200–1,400 kg. A 130HP Massey Ferguson 5465 had no trouble lifting the blocks into a 16m³ trailer — something a standard shear grab simply couldn’t manage.

Why Choose the Megastar Silage Block Cutters?

• Patented Double-Blade System
  Two counter-acting front knives move toward each other which eliminates shear forces and delivers a cleaner, more powerful cut with less resistance.

• Preserves Feed Quality
  Prevents loosening or crumbling at the silage face, reducing oxygen exposure and reheating. Retains storage density and nutritional value.

• Tough Where It Counts
  BvL builds the Megastar Block Cutter for performance and reliability. To achieve this, the cutting bar and knives are made from highly wear-resistant HB400 steel. As a result, the machine performs consistently — even under demanding, high-throughput conditions. In addition, it requires minimal maintenance. Consequently, it helps reduce downtime and long-term service costs. Therefore, the Megastar is a smart investment for any feeding operation.

• Low Maintenance, High Output
  The transversal cutting unit is nearly maintenance-free which making it the ideal silage block cutting solution for professional applications needing reliability, day in and day out.

• Flexible Setup
  You can choose front or rear mounting to suit your tractor and feeding system. Various sizes are available to suit your operation.
