Large Square Balers

Large Square Balers
have increased productivity for many haymaking operations, but require the operator to keep a close watch on moisture levels. With the addition of a touch-screen automatic preservative application system the operator can stay put in the cab and just monitor the operation while the system continuously takes moisture readings and automatically adjusts application rate. Electronic control systems are also available for large square balers. Equipped with a high capacity 100-gallon tank mounted on the rear of the baler, the operator can go almost non-stop.

Sensors for Large Square Balers
Automatic systems for large square balers are equipped with star wheel sensors that run through the bale picking up moisture content and speed of baling.

Depending on your need, choose an automatic touch-screen control system, an electronic control system or an economical manual control system.
