How the ECQ slurry macerator works
ExaCut ECQ

The Vogelsang ECQ slurry macerator is trusted worldwide among farmers and contractors for its consistent performance and reliability, particularly in challenging slurry environments in Ireland. The ExaCut ECQ stands out for its unparalleled precision in distributing slurry evenly, alongside easy maintenance and reduced power consumption. With its heavy-duty rotor and adjustable spring design, the ECQ macerator excels in cutting performance, especially with tough fibres or baled silage. Compatible with any slurry applicator, the ExaCut ECQ serves as the core of your slurry distribution technology. Learn more about the ExaCut ECQ in our video!

"The ExaCut ECQ has been carefully designed and provides customer led solutions over and above other slurry macerators on the market. It offers consistency and evenness of slurry distribution, while minimising the power requirements needed. Efficient slurry distribution through the ports is beneficial to this consistency. The improved access to replace the ECQ wear parts reduces time and effort during maintenance." ~Francis Merrigan, Abbey Machinery Innovation Engineering Manager
"With the low oil flow requirements of the ECQ, our blades and screens have lasted over 2.5 years in heavy contracting use. The even distribution and quality texture of slurry to all hosepipes makes our job smoother and more efficient." ~Tim Ryan, Contractor, Co Tipperary

Features of the ExaCut ECQ

The eccentric adjuster ensures that the cutting blades always exert a constant pressure on the cutting ring. Together with the optimized cutting blades, this guarantees consistent and reliable cutting performance.

The ExaCut distributors can be factory-fitted with side filling connections in different lengths and diameters. This allows flexibility in terms of connecting the distributor to the existing supply line. A TopInlet is also possible: an additional slurry inlet at the top of the distributor.

The compact sealing package ensures reliable separation between hydraulic oil and medium. The sealing package prevents the different substances from mixing. With this leakage check feature, leaks can be detected quickly and easily.

All Vogelsang precision distributors are equipped with ventilation. These ensure an even flow of liquid manure into the discharge hoses and a high distribution precision.

Heavy foreign matter, such as stones or pieces of metal, is collected for easy removal through a simple opening.

Options of the ExaCut ECQ

Comfort Flow Control (CFC)

Comfort Flow Control (CFC) is the universal solution when it comes to shutting off hoses in any system: part-width section cut-offs, tramline switching or DropStop systems. The CFC is installed in the hose outlets of the spreader device, downstream of the distributor. Each hose or group of hoses can be shut off from the cab. The CFC is versatile and can be used in any unit – dribble bar systems, trailing shoe systems or tillage units.

Quality leadership in distribution accuracy and maintenance
Irish Field-Tested: Proven Performance in Demanding Conditions

The Vogelsang slurry macerator sets new standards, featuring the QuickService principle for easy maintenance. With servicing taking less than 20 minutes, downtime is minimised, especially during the slurry season. Its large maintenance opening gives direct access to all wear parts without disassembly from the spreading applicator. Plus, the ExaCut ECQ excels in slurry distribution accuracy, offering unbeatable coefficient of variation for even nutrient distribution to all hosepipes. The robust rotor and adjuster spring design of the ECQ macerator provides top cutting performance, especially for challenging materials like tough fibre or baled silage.

Furthermore, the heavy-duty ExaCut ECQ features a longer lifespan with its three-bladed rotor design, reducing rotational speed and internal pressure, extending service life by up to 50%. It also reduces power requirements by 50%, saving on energy and oil. The new design positively impacts pump power consumption with its open design and large cross-sections, enabling slurry intake and preventing pressure loss. The ECQ model has been engineered to effectively handle the challenging slurry conditions in Ireland, earning farmers' trust through their proven reliability in demanding environments.

"We use the Vogelsang ECQ slurry macerator because of the long life of wearing parts, easy part access with quick servicing and consistent and even distribution of slurry to all hosepipes.” ~ Alastair Brown, RG Brown Agricultural Machinery, Co Down
