2024 New Holland Field Data Recording Systems Baler

Bale weighing sensors are integrated into the bale discharge chute of the BigBaler and register the weight of the bale at the point at which it becomes free from the chute, just before it drops to the ground. The ActiveWeigh™ system is independent of bale length, field conditions and baler movement. All information, including single bale weight, average weight, total weight and tons per hour are all displayed on the IntelliView™ display. Furthermore, this all happens while you continue to pick-up for non-stop baling. If that wasn’t enough, a 2% accuracy level means you’ll produce the bales as precisely as required.

It is imperative to record bale moisture, as an over-wet crop will spoil and be useless. The BigBaler moisture sensor uses two star wheels to penetrate the bale and an electric current is passed through to determine the exact moisture of the bale. This is then displayed on the IntelliView™ display which prevents unready crop from being baled, and enables the precise application of additive.

As the bale passes through the chamber, an empty radio frequency ID tag is applied, and when it exits the chamber, and passes off the chute, the information recorded by the Crop ID™ Precision Information Processor, including bale weight, moisture content, date and time and its GPS location, are transferred onto the tag. An infrared scanner can be used to read the tag and to ensure the correct bale is selected for every situation.
