John Deere Control System - Round Balers
500 Series Automatic Control System *NEW*
The new 500 Series Automatic Applicator system for round balers makes baling hay and keeping track of your bales even easier and more efficient than ever before. Similar to the current Automatic Applicator where the operator can monitor the operation as the system continuously takes moisture readings and automatically adjusts application rates, there are some numerous improvements on the already popular automatic design:
  • The new 500 Series Automatic Applicator now has the capability to calculate a baling rate, or tonnage, for your round baler by calculating the baling time by the opening and closing of the bale door.
  • The new system also has the capacity to store 300 job records and 32,000 individual bales within those records by bale serial number, date and time, field name, bale weight, average and high moisture content, and amount of preservative used.
  • The 500 Series Automatic Applicator also has an external USB port where each of these records can be downloaded as a spreadsheet to your computer, and new software can be downloaded to the system.
  • There is also a new fixed-chamber option available on the Commerical Automatic Applicator, which allow an automatic system to be used on fixed-chamber round balers for the first time.
400 Series Automatic Control Systems

Automatic ControlsAUTOMATIC CONTROLS MAKE BALING WET HAY EASY!
The 400 series automatic control system accurately senses moisture on-the-go and adjusts the application of preservative every three seconds to match the condition of the hay. This precision gives the operator the exact amount of product required to keep the crop in great condition, without wasting product.

The all new touch-panel monitor gives complete control and information for all types of balers equipped with an automatic preservative applicator. The monitor displays moisture content and speed of baling. The target application rate is set for the moisture being baled and is displayed. The actual application rate is monitored and displayed under the target number. This control adjusts application rate every three seconds to attain the target rate. The screen also continuously displays the volume used. A simple push on the Main Menu key pulls up a selection of other screens including the adjustable settings and a Job Record screen. The system stores 63 jobs by date and time, number of tons baled (only on large square balers), product used and the average moisture.
