Jaylor launched its new 6000 series at Canada's Outdoor Farm Show. Alan Vaage, a nutritionist with Jaylor, says it includes a new all-terrain version.

Jaylor’s new 6000 series total mixed ration mixer brings multiple changes to the company’s lineup, but maintains its time-tested square-cut auger.

The Ontario company launched the new series at Canada’s Outdoor Farm Show 2025, near Woodstock.

All of the mixers on site were the new 6000 series.

Alan Vaage, a PhD nutritionist with the company, said the changes make the feed mixers more reliable and user friendly for farmers, especially around the conveyor and the ability to see what’s happening in the mixer.

Jaylor is known for its patented 20 per cent lower horsepower claim because of the square-cut auger.

“That decreases the size of the tractor that one needs to run the equipment, but also decreases operating costs as well as wear and tear on the equipment,” said Vaage.

The mixers in the Jaylor range are from a mini-mixer at 50 cubic feet to a 1,250 cubic foot mixer.

Jaylor has added more all-terrain capacity to its mixers, with two mixers in the AT series. They will be popular for farmers who work in harsher conditions, including those who drive through pastures to feed a total mixed ration (TMR). The AT series mixers include a redesigned axle and new tires that will make getting the mixer through snow and mud easier, said Vaage.

Other improvements include improved visibility during mixing and feedout and a better seal for the mixer door.

The new door pushes into the drum to hold it tight to maintain smooth and uniform mixing, said Vaage. A patent-pending cam-latch system helps provide increased mixing efficiency, with reduced wear.

The newly designed conveyor is available in various configurations, including with a longer or shorter options depending on the farm’s needs. It’s built with galvanized steel for longer life.

The company also redesigned the front end of the machine for greater visibility for producers and a safer, clearer viewing window on the side of the machine makes it easier to watch how the mixer is working.

The changes were driven by feedback from customers, said Vaage.

“The 6000 Series really shows how far we’ve come,” said Jake Tamminga, founder of Jaylor.

“We’ve taken a hard look and listened to what folks were asking for. We’ve reworked much of the mixer, adding more tire options for heavy mud conditions, and upgraded a whole list of features to improve longevity and performance, like our new spring shields.”

The new 6000 series will be available for purchase beginning Oct. 1, 2025.
