Siloking SelfLine 4.0 System 300+
Bale Chopper | Mixer / feeder
A large-volume self-propelled harvester that offers the top performance of its big brother - the SelfLine4.0 System 500+.
The Kverneland SILOKING SelfLine 4.0 System 300+ is a high-performance self-propelled feed mixer for large dairy herds. With mixing volumes from 19 to 25 m³, high ground clearance and powerful drive technology, it delivers fast forage removal and uniform feed discharge even into high troughs.
Description
The Kverneland SILOKING SelfLine 4.0 System 300+ is engineered for farms that require high output and large daily feeding volumes. With hopper capacities from 19 to 25 m³, the machine enables large animal groups to be fed efficiently with only a few mixes per day.
A powerful Volvo 4-cylinder engine delivering up to 160 kW (218 hp) ensures fast forage removal and consistently homogeneous mixing. With a top speed of up to 25 km/h, the System 300+ is ideally suited to daily work on large farms.
High ground clearance makes feed discharge into elevated troughs simple, while the compact self-propelled design provides excellent handling in demanding farm environments.

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.
The Kverneland SILOKING SelfLine 4.0 System 300+ is our robust high-volume yard machine for farms with large rations and demanding daily workloads. It is designed around reliability, load capacity and strong mixing performance for herds from around 300 animals and above.
The robust chassis supports heavy rations, while the air-sprung suspension and large tyres provide high ground clearance and strong traction. This makes the machine suitable for uneven yards, high troughs and farm layouts where a conventional low-clearance machine may not be practical.
The Kverneland SILOKING SelfLine 4.0 System 300+ is powered by a 160 kW Volvo engine that delivers strong performance for milling, driving and mixing. We combine this engine with axial-piston pumps that are matched to the milling head, drive system and mixing unit.
This gives the machine high efficiency under load and helps reduce unnecessary fuel use. The 1,000-hour maintenance interval also supports lower service effort over time. For farms with intensive daily feeding, this drive concept provides the power needed without sacrificing operating economy.
The Kverneland SILOKING SelfLine 4.0 System 300+ uses four-wheel steering to stay compact and manoeuvrable around the yard. The machine can move quickly from silo to feed table and handle tight corners, narrow passages and angled yard layouts with less correction from the operator.
The air-sprung chassis can also reduce the total machine height at the press of a button from the driver’s seat. This allows the operator to pass through lower barn entrances when needed, while still keeping the benefits of ground clearance and driving comfort during normal operation.
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 milling head, you can monitor feed composition, rather than relying on estimation.
It pays to take a close look at the quality of the basic forage, ideally at the time of silage removal. Kverneland SILOKING's solution to this task is Near Infrared Spectroscopy (NIRS).
This technology, which is available as an option on all Kverneland SILOKING self-propelled machines, makes use of near-infrared light to analyse the dry matter of the forage components. It enables continuous, non-contact and non-destructive real-time analysis. (This equipment can also be retrofitted.)
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 for the cow
- Varying milk yields
- Higher amount of feed residue
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. The NIR System offers particular advantages for silos with layers of feed of different origins and specific weights. As opposed to random dry matter measurement, the system can accurately adjust during feed removal based on the values measured in real time. It knows the dry matter content of the basic feed fed in and can adapt the planned target component.
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.
