500 & 400 Series Automatic Controls Systems
Automatic ControlsAutomatic Control for Large Square and Round Balers
The 500 & 400 series automatic systems accurately senses moisture on the go and adjusts the application rate every three seconds to match the condition of the hay. This precision gives the operator the exact amount of preservative required to keep the crop in great condition without wasting product.

The touch screen display gives the operator complete control and displays:
  • Moisture content
  • Speed of baling (tonnage) on large square and small square balers
  • Target application rate
  • Volume of preservative used per bale
  • Total tons baled
For Large Square Balers
The new 500 series automatic system for large square balers makes baling hay and keeping track of your bales even easier and more efficient than ever before. With a newly-designed Precision Information Processor, the applicator has the capability to record and store 300 job records and up to 32,000 individual bales within those records by bale serial number, date and time, field name, bale weight, average and high moisture, and amount of preservative used. Each one of those records can be downloaded as a spreadsheet to your computer through a USB port. The new system also comes with the latest software that is compatible with the Tagger system that puts all that information on the bale itself.

For Round Balers
The 400 series automatic control system for round and small square balers still remains the most advanced preservative applicator for these types of balers. Driven by the Baler Mounted Processor and touch screen display, the automatic system is able to store up to 60 job records by field number with total tons baled, average and high moisture, date and time, and amount of preservative used.
Moisture Sensors for Auto Applicators
Round Baler Sensors
Accurate moisture readings are an integral part of the automatic system, and the sensor shape and mounting varies by baler type.

Electronic and Manual Control Systems
Electronic Controls The electronic cab control is a solid state electronic pump control used for any large square, small square, or round baler. The control box can be mounted in the cab or on the fender, and once set the electronic control will hold the application rate constant and is adjusted by turning the dial on the control box.

The manual control system operates similar to the electronic control, but instead of a control box in the cab, the application rate is controlled by a regulator valve located on the pump itself. Manual controls are available for round and small square balers only.
