Faresin Industries expands the Leader PF Full Electric mixer wagon series

• Faresin Industries expands its electric mixer wagon series with the new Leader PF 1.17 Full Electric, a 17-cubic-meter machine.

• The Leader PF 1.17 FE offers operational and economic benefits, reducing operating costs by over 70% compared to diesel models.

• The machine is powered by a 91.3 kW, 210 Ah lithium battery, providing autonomy for four feed mixes and recharging in around four hours.

• Enhanced animal welfare and reduced environmental impact are achieved through the nearly silent electric motor, which prevents approximately 45 tons of CO₂ emissions annually.

• The Leader PF 1.17 FE features a 51 kW electric motor for traction, oil-bath disc brakes, and limited-slip axles for stability in challenging terrains.

• Faresin Industries introduces an AI-based application for herd management and optimal recommendations, enhancing farm productivity and profitability.

Faresin Industries expands its electric mixer wagon series with the new Leader PF 1.17 Full Electric, a 17-cubic-meter machine. This decision aligns with Faresin Industries' commitment to a more sustainable and technologically advanced agricultural sector.

Like the other models in the Leader PF FE series, the Leader PF 1.17 FE is designed for farms focused on sustainability and energy efficiency with higher work capacity needs. The new Leader PF 1.17 FE expands a series introduced in 2023 with Faresin’s first electric mixer wagon, recognized for its hallmark qualities, including work performance and uniform feed mix—distinctions that define the entire Faresin mixer wagon range.

Electric propulsion provides both operational and economic benefits. Operationally, the increased torque of electric motors has made the loading auger even more efficient, enhancing performance in handling wrapped hay bales. Economically, the Leader PF 1.17 FE reduces operating costs by over 70% compared to an equivalent diesel model—an advantage that grows for farms with solar panels, allowing access to zero-cost electricity.

Additional benefits include enhanced animal welfare and reduced environmental impact. The nearly silent electric motor significantly lowers ambient noise, contributing to animal comfort. Environmentally, the electric version prevents approximately 45 tons of CO₂ emissions annually—equivalent to the fuel consumption of a transatlantic Boeing 747 flight.

The Leader PF 1.17 FE is powered by a 91.3 kW, 210 Ah lithium battery, providing enough autonomy for four feed mixes. The "Universal Charge" system, compatible with 220V single-phase or 400V three-phase networks, recharges in around four hours.

The traction system, driven by a 51 kW electric motor, powers all four wheels, ensuring traction and stability in any work condition. Its off-road capabilities are reinforced by oil-bath disc brakes and limited-slip axles, making it well-suited for challenging terrains like mud or ice.

The cab of the Leader PF offers a comfortable and safe driving experience, with all machine functions controlled through a large 10-inch display.

The Leader PF 1.17 FE is the ideal choice for those looking to combine Faresin’s quality feed mix with drastically reduced operating costs, on-farm electricity, reduced environmental impact, and improved animal welfare—all while delivering the high-quality TMR that defines Faresin.

With over 50 years of experience in livestock machinery design, Faresin Industries has been committed for over a decade to providing advanced solutions that enhance animal welfare and increase farm profitability, furthering the capabilities of its mixer wagons.

The entire Leader PF Full Electric series benefits from Faresin Industries' support services, such as the real-time nutritional content monitoring and mix homogeneity verification system (NIR system), which signals the optimal unloading time. This solution optimizes animal feeding, boosting productivity.

Data management applications are also available, allowing integration of scale data and autonomous collection of farm data and raw material price trends to optimize productivity and minimize costs.

As a new feature for EIMA 2024, Faresin introduces an application that not only collects data but also uses artificial intelligence to manage herds and provide optimal recommendations to farmers.

Finally, the Leader PF Full Electric self-propelled mixer wagons gain significant advantages through available public incentives and tangible economic benefits.

The Leader PF 1.17 Full Electric is thus a wise investment, enabling farms to make a qualitative leap toward greener, more productive, and more responsible agriculture.
