SelfLine 4.0 Compact
Bale Chopper | Mixer / feeder
Maximum performance in low buildings – compact, powerful, precise
The Kverneland SILOKING SelfLine 4.0 Compact is a low-height self-propelled feed mixer for narrow or low shed entrances. With 13 m³ and 16 m³ mixing volumes, a manoeuvrable 3-point chassis and powerful Volvo turbo engines, it delivers precise feeding in confined spaces.
Description
The Kverneland SILOKING SelfLine 4.0 Compact is designed for family farms through to large operations that require a low overall height and maximum manoeuvrability. With mixing volumes of 13 m³ and 16 m³, it is ideally suited to narrow or particularly low shed entrances.
Its compact design and agile 3-point chassis enable two-sided feed discharge without driving over the feed, even in confined conditions. The Compact 1612-13 and 1612-16 models pass easily through low buildings without compromising mixing performance.
Power is provided by economical Volvo 4-cylinder turbo diesel engines rated at 105 kW (143 hp), with optional upgrades to 129 kW (175 hp) or 160 kW (218 hp) via the Power Pack.

NIR - Near InfraRed Spectroscopy
Feeding based on reliable data
Precise control of the feed ration supports herd health, feed efficiency and consistent milk production.
Visual assessment cannot consistently guarantee maximum milk yield from every kilogram of dry matter.
With Kverneland SILOKING's NIR System mounted at the front of the self-propelled cutterhead, you can monitor feed composition, rather than relying on estimation.
As dry matter content can vary significantly within the silo, accurately calculated feed rations are essential.
An incorrectly calculated feed ration brings four major disadvantages:
- Lower feed efficiency
- Metabolic issues
With Kverneland SILOKING SelfLine, you can avoid this expense, and have a great impact on your profitability.
The Kverneland SILOKING NIR System delivers reliable data for more accurate rations, greater control of herd health and consistent milk production.
Kverneland SILOKING DryScan®
Real-time dry matter measurement for self-propelled feed mixers.
Consistent feeding starts with a consistent ration. However, fluctuating dry matter levels in forage can make this difficult to achieve.
Kverneland SILOKING DryScan® provides an intelligent solution to this challenge. The system determines the dry matter content of the feed, in real time, during loading.
As a result, the fresh matter is automatically adjusted so that the ration is consistent every day, supporting stable rumen health, reducing feed waste and avoiding empty feed tables.
When combined with Kverneland SILOKING Feeding Management, feeding can be digitally planned, documented, monitored and optimised, delivering greater accuracy and reliability for modern dairy and livestock operations.
Refuel with HVO (Hydrotreated Vegetable Oil)!
All Kverneland SILOKING SelfLine Diet Feeders, manufactured from 01.01.24 onwards, are approved for use with 100% renewable diesel: HVO. The use of HVO diesel helps reduce emissions in dairy farming.
HVO (Hydrotreated Vegetable Oil) is a renewable diesel alternative produced from waste-based raw materials and has been proven to reduce CO2 emissions by 90%, compared to conventional diesel.
One of the major advantages of HVO is its close similarity to conventional diesel fuel, allowing it to be used directly in any mixing ratio without modifications to the machine.
Working closely with engine suppliers, HVO has been thoroughly tested and approved; as a result, all Kverneland SILOKING self-propelled diet feeders, manufactured from 01.01.24 onward, are fully approved for HVO use.
