INTELLIGENT DENSITY - TIGHT BALES HOW THE BALING CHAMBER WORKS The Intelligent Density bale chamber 1 offers a combination of three rollers and five endless belts, offering smooth bale rotation and reduced crop loss, even in dry conditions. The two aggressive front rollers that come in contact with the crop are constantly cleaned by a scraper and are designed to perform well in silage. They ensure instant and efficient bale 2 start with immediate bale formation in all crop conditions. As the bale grows, the belt tensioning arm is subjected to steadily increasing resistance from two hydraulic cylinders and two spring tensioners. As the bale diameter grows, so does the bale’s density. 3 The result is a higher density bale with a smaller and denser core. Straw bales will be more tolerant to poor weather conditions, while silage bales will maintain their shape for improved stacking and easier handling.
