AGI unveils high capacity, 54 hp diesel auger
AGI unveiled its new STX3 13-41 auger at Ag in Motion (AIM) in Saskatchewan, featuring a powerful 54-horsepower Kohler diesel engine.
“It’s the first of its kind, direct drive, PTO driven auger... it allows us to use the diesel torque value of the curve to produce more capacity,” says Kent Woods, AGI Director of Global Product Management.
This upgrade from the STX2 is a result of farmer feedback, offering improved fuel efficiency, longer lifespan and compatibility with on-farm diesel storage.
The STX3 auger also includes a redesigned low-profile hopper with triple flighting to boost capacity and a new lockdown sprocket system for easier maintenance.
