Since 1985, the Dutch company GKB has developed user-oriented and innovative machines that are adapted to all types of sports surfaces. The SPM sand spreader is an excellent example of this. With a container capacity from 2,3 m³ to 4 m³ (ironed size) and robust design and composition, GKB's SPM gives you many efficient operating hours over a long period of time to come. In addition, the GKB SPM's control box provides full control and an overview of the work while you remain in the tractor.
The sand spreader has several smart functions that facilitate the work; the excess water can evaporate, oxygen enters the material and less organic material can form in the top layer. This results is cleaner sand and grass in top condition.
The sand is transported back to a dosing valve by means of a robust conveyor belt that can be speed-adjusted steplessly from the control box (the dosing valve is also available as hydraulically steplessly operated). The double, steplessly speed-adjustable and hydraulically driven spreading discs are adjustable in several points, which means that you can create the perfect spreading image of your sand. SPM230's conveyor belt can also drive forward to the front metering valve and can with an extra conveyor belt (optional) that you can discharge sand in, for example, bunkers. SPM is delivered with four swivel balloon tires as standard, all to ensure a perfect weight distribution on your sports field or golf course . SPM can also be equipped at the factory with lights and brakes approved for road transport.

GKB Discharge belt and arm
GKB SP Belt and Spreading discs
The shape and design of the sand bunker ensures an efficient
operation and ensures your clear view along the machine. The
sand is transported to a metering valve (1) by means of a conveyer
belt which, optionally, is also available as a hydraulically operated
metering valve (2). The double, hydraulically powered, spreading discs (3) are adjustable on multiple points, Via guider adjustment
There are six guiders mounted on each disc. These guiders spread the sand. The angle to the center determines sand distributi-on. A narrow spreading position gives a more even picture.
Consequently, the GKB Sandspreaders enables you to create perfect sand distribution.
GKB Machines is part of the GKB Group. Since 1985 GKB Machines, as a separate division, is engaged with the development of innovative maintenance machines for sports pitches.
GKB Machines feel strongly about sustainability, as a family-owned company they aim for a sustainable company with a positive future prospect. That they do not just stick to words is evident from the fact that they are producing the machines energy neutral.
Sustainability is also highly important during the development of the machines. GKB develop the machines from the experience they have established from their contractor division. Every GKB Machine must satisfy the high-quality requirements that they impose. A sustainable, reliable and robust machine is the foundation for your operation. Since their contractor division is used to receiving these type of machines, you might also expect this from GKB.
"The Worker is King"
The machines that GKB develop are reliable, robust machines. They owe this fact to the fact that they are still working with the machines as well. GKB knows what the man who does the work requires to operate in a good and efficient manner. Therefore, they are using a new slogan: “The Worker is King”. This is important, since only in this way the machine can deliver pitches that look great. The reason why you purchased it.
