Scarifiers, flail mowers and artificial turf care from Bellon-Mit for a (artificial) turf in top shape

Machines De Schutter and Bellon-Mit keep sports turf in top shape

A perfectly maintained sports field or golf course requires much more than a lawn mower and hours of intensive work. Professional machines are essential to guarantee playing quality, safety and durability on a turf. Machines De Schutter (MDS) works together with the Italian company Bellon-Mit, manufacturer of high-quality maintenance machines, for this purpose. Thanks to this cooperation, as a groundsman you have the choice of a wide range of excellent scarifiers, flail mowers and artificial turf conditioners.

For many decades, Machines De Schutter has been active as an importer of machines for the construction and maintenance of gardens and sports fields. With a keen eye for quality and innovation, CEO Marco Luyten's team went in search of a manufacturer that responds to the specific needs of site managers of sports and golf clubs. MDS found that in Bellon-Mit, an Italian manufacturer that specializes in maintenance technology for sports fields, golf courses and parks. MDS is responsible for the exclusive distribution of Bellon-Mit machines in Belgium, including tailor-made technical support and service.

BM20: for artificial turf that performs like new 

Artificial turf fields may require less maintenance than natural grass, but that does not mean they are maintenance-free. Infill materials such as sand and rubber must be replenished and distributed regularly to keep the fibers upright and the surface safe and resilient. This is where the BM20 comes in. This compact machine operates with height-adjustable support rollers and interchangeable rotors (polypropylene springs or brushes), depending on the application. The BM20 is suitable for both installation and periodic maintenance of artificial turf fields. Its light weight and compatibility with compact tractors - from 30 hp - make it widely applicable, from sports clubs to municipal services. Regular use not only improves playing comfort, but also drainage and field life.

BM40 and BM45: scarifying without compromise 

For the maintenance of natural grass fields, the BM40 and BM45 are two powerful scarifiers that excel in efficiency and ease of use. Bellon-Mit designed the BM40 for intensive use on sports fields, golf courses and parks. Thanks to the smart blade attachment system, you quickly replace the blades without disassembling the rotor or transmission. The powerful rotor generates a strong air flow, making the machine also usable as a leaf vacuum. A hydraulic collection container ensures neat and efficient disposal of material. With the BM45 you go one step further, because you combine this same technology with a high-discharge collection system. Ideal if you, as a groundsman, need to collect and immediately dispose of large volumes of organic waste. Available in two models - the BM45-1600 and the BM45-1800 - this machine offers working widths of 1.55 m and 1.75 m, respectively. The blade spacing is adjustable (30 or 20 mm), and the machine can work to a depth of 4 cm. Depending on the model, a tractor of 40 to 80 hp is required.

TTRB/TTRA: more than a flail mower 

Traditional flail mowers often do not meet the high demands of sports fields. This is why Bellon-Mit developed the TTRB and TTRA machines: multifunction mowers with interchangeable rotors (hammers, blades, scarifier blades) and high speed for a fine cut. These machines offer adjustable depth of cut down to the millimeter, ideal for greens and sports grounds where precision is an essential factor.An additional asset is the dual roller that prevents the scalping effect - a common problem in uneven mowing. The TTRB/TTRA machines are available with ground-level discharge or elevated emptying, depending on conditions.

Getting to work for an ironclad turf

The cooperation between Machines De Schutter and Bellon-Mit makes professional technology accessible to the Belgian market. From artificial turf to natural grass, from scarifying to mowing: as a groundsman you will find a suitable Bellon-Mit machine for every maintenance task. Thanks to the local expertise and service of MDS, you can count on reliable support and durable performance. A strong combination for those who want to maintain their lawns professionally and efficiently.
