Product Spotlight:
The Award Winning MK-Range- Rear Discharge Spreaders
The MK-Range: Built for Precision, Strength and You!
Our Award-Winning MK-Range of rear discharge muck spreaders are not just built for precision and tough jobs, they are built with you in mind. Designed to handle tough jobs with unmatched precision, every model in the range is engineered with operator convenience, durability, and performance at its core.
The MK spreaders feature a Hardox® tapered “easyout” body- the only spreader on the market with this accreditation- for efficient emptying, supported by dual 16mm marine-grade floor chains as standard. Manual hydraulic floor drive systems come equipped with SensPoint and WeighPoint for accurate and consistent spreading, while HydraPoint delivers automatic hydraulic tensioning of the chains, taking the stress out of operation. Additionally, the SnapPoint Flails ™- an innovation by SpreadPoint- help to eliminate any damage caused by foreign objects in the rotors or drive line.
At the business end, twin dynamically balanced, two-directional rotors made from Hardox® steel provide shock-absorbed performance and reliable discharge. A heavy-duty galvanised slurry door, also in Hardox®, includes a height indicator that’s clearly visible from the cab, giving the operator complete control. Ride comfort and hitching flexibility are enhanced with a sprung drawbar and a choice of swivel or K80 bolt-on adjustable hitches.
Optional steel extension sides, a mill canopy and border control attachments offer versatility to suit your workload. Each machine is shot blasted, primed, painted in durable 2-pack paint and oven baked, ensuring a hard wearing, long-lasting finish. With dual air and hydraulic brakes and robust 240HP gearboxes with overrun safety built in, the MK-Range is as safe as it is powerful.
Feature Highlight: WeighPoint
WeighPoint: Enhance your MK-Spreader experience with the addition of weigh cells.
WeighPoint - Weigh Cell
Weigh Cells (also known as load cells) are devices that measure weight by converting force into an electrical signal which can be read from inside the cab with ISOBUS or control monitor. This ensures precise weight measurements which displays accurate readings of the operational load.
Why is this important?
By understanding the exact weight of the load, you can accurately spread the muck to the desired spreading application rates. The feedback to the in-cab rate controller continually adjusts the calibration on the move ensuring high accuracy spreading. This will allow you to know exactly how much product is required for the exact area of land you want to spread. Each MK- Rear Discharge Spreader contains 3 weighcells- Two on the axle and one on the hitch for optimum measuring.
Contact our sales team today to add WeighPoint to your MK Order! Also available on the SP-Range of Spreaders, TF-Range of Gravel Carts.

Technical Insight:
Spread you muck the SpreadPoint Way
Down on The Farm
Check
Point View Farm has had a record year for completing the grain harvest. Combing harvesting was completed on the 13th August- unheard of in Northern Ireland conditions! This year saw great yields across all crops- Wheat, Barley, Oil Seed Rape, and Oats. The good weather conditions have ensured a lower than usual grain moisture percentage, which has greatly reduced cost of drying. Straw has been baled with ease, again reducing costs and losses usually incurred by turning wet straw. Overall, Pointview Farm has had an exceptional year Down on The Farm! Stay tuned for future updates as we enter Autumn and Spring ground preparations which will feature SpreadPoint machines- Built for tough jobs!
Did you know that by selecting the right manure, at the right time with the right application rates, could save your crops from striping and lodging?
Spreading manure and digestate onto arable and grassland soils is also a great way to cut down on fertiliser costs. However, inaccurate spreading could cost you more in the long run! Uneven spread patterns from poorly calibrated machines could lead to stripping and lodging of certain crops including wheat, making it difficult to harvest and adding additional costs to the processes too. Spreadpoint Mk-Range of rear discharge muck spreaders are designed with this in mind!
Our Hardox® reverse pitch rotors are specifically designed for improved spread pattern ensuring even fine material is spread at the bottom of the swinging flails, improving the spread pattern and machine durability.
WeighPoint® incorporates stainless steel weigh cells for on board accuracy, pulsing 50x per second. The real time door height indicator and real time weight calculations ensures even spread patterns across the field.
HydraPoint® is the automatic floor chain tensioning system which hydraulically and automatically adjusts the chains. It ensures optimum tension at all times. Also reducing downtime and maintenance needs. The true suspension drawbar and tapered body with its single floor slat system also ensures a smooth and consistent discharge, even down steep hills.
The R.10.50 Range of rotor spreaders are also up for the test too with the 5-axis rotor which chops even the most demanding manures, throwing it further and more accurately.
