The present disclosure includes various methods of wrapping an item, such as harvested agricultural material, including steps such as unrolling a wrapping material portion from a roll of wrapping material portions, the unrolling starting at a leading end of the wrapping material portion and continuing along a length of the portion towards a trailing end of the portion, each wrapping material portion including a base film, a first adhesive substrate including a bottom adhesive surface attached to a first side of the base film of the wrapping material portion adjacent to the perforation, an outwardly facing first adhesive surface covered by a first release liner with a second adhesive surface facing outwardly and attached to a second side of the base film of the wrapping material portion when on the roll, and further unrolling the wrapping material portion from the roll of wrapping material portions such that the first release liner separates from the first adhesive surface, the first release liner remaining attached to the second side of the base film of the wrapping material portion and the first adhesive surface remaining attached to the first side of the base film of the wrapping material portion. Wrapping material portions may be connected to one another by perforations.

An enveloping material for a baler for enveloping a lateral surface of a bale includes a piece of material having at least one entrainer.

A composite wrap material for wrapping a bale may include a segment of net wrap, a first barrier segment of semi-permeable material disposed to overlap with the segment of net wrap, and a second barrier segment of material disposed to overlap, at least in part, with the first barrier segment of semi-permeable material and the segment of net wrap. The segment of net wrap may be longer than an outer perimeter length of the bale and may be at least as wide as a width of the bale. When the bale is wrapped by the composite wrap material, the overlap of the second barrier segment of material with the first barrier segment of semi-permeable material may form first and second barrier layers to impede movement of liquid water from outside the composite wrap material to the outer perimeter of the bale.

In one embodiment, the present disclosure may be a wrapping material for formed bales of materials, including at least one layer of a flexible plastic material film web divided into portions by a plurality of spaced lines of perforations, the web including a first surface and an opposite second surface, each portion having a first adhesive substrate adhered to the first surface of each portion adjacent to each line of perforation, each first adhesive substrate including a first adhesive surface adhered to the first surface of each portion and a second adhesive surface facing outwardly opposite the first adhesive surface, each portion having a second adhesive substrate adhered to the first surface of each portion, each second adhesive substrate including a first adhesive surface adhered to the first surface of each portion and a second adhesive surface facing outwardly opposite the first adhesive surface, and a first release liner overlying the second adhesive surface of the first adhesive substrate and a second release liner overlying the second adhesive surface of the second adhesive substrate.

A wrapping apparatus and A wrapping method are provide to wrap an object in a chamber into a web of wrapping material. The web is moved from a reservoir outside of the chamber. A tag applicator applies a tag on the web in an application position which is between a wrapping material reservoir and a wrapping material inlet. A tag reader monitors whether or not a tag is conveyed in the chamber along the tag reader. If no tag is detected, an alert is generated that the object is not properly wrapped.

An enveloping device for enveloping a bale with an enveloping material for a baler includes a supply of the enveloping material. The supply is configured to feed the enveloping material to a pressing chamber of the baler through a feed gap. A braking device is provided for the enveloping material. The braking device is configured such that it has an effect that the enveloping material assumes an at least substantially predetermined position with respect to the pressing chamber of the baler to at least one working means of the baler or to the bale at either an end or a start of an enveloping operation.

A control system for controlling a braking operation performed by one or more controllable components of an agricultural baler on a wrapping material incorporating a plurality of electronic identifiers is disclosed. The control system ensures that a desired braking force for a given wrapping material is applied to the wrapping material during each phase of the binding cycle.

The present invention relates to an agricultural mesh for baling (1) comprising columns of chains or pillars (3), wherein each column of chain or pillar (3) comprises a plurality of meshes (4) interconnected with each other and associated with the columns of chains or pillars (3) by means of the wefts (2), wherein the configuration and dimensions of the wefts (2) provides the reinforcement of the agricultural mesh for baling (1). The present invention provides a solution that aims to reduce the dimensions of the longitudinal openings wefts (2) during the baling process, yielding strong and well-preserved bales.

A cover film for the compressing of bales, characterized in that the cover film has been stretched and comprises an inner layer (1) and outer layers (2), wherein the inner layer (1) of the film comprises a copolymer of an ethylene and an -olefin, wherein the -olefin is selected from the group consisting of 1-butene, 1-hexene, 1-heptene, and 1-octene, and is used for copolymerization with the ethylene, wherein the copolymer is present in an amount of more than 5% by weight and less than 50% by weight of the inner layer (1) of the film, wherein the inner layer (1) further comprises a linear polyethylene, and wherein the outer layers (2) of the film fail to comprise any significant proportion of the copolymer.

A baler for use with a netwrap roll, where the baler includes a frame supported on one or more wheels, a housing coupled to the frame and at least partially defining a baling chamber therein, a netwrap assembly having a netwrap frame coupled to the housing and at least partially defining a netwrap chamber, and a loading device at least partially positioned within the netwrap chamber. Where the loading device includes a first frame fixed relative to the netwrap frame, a second frame movable relative to the first frame between a frame stowed position and a frame deployed position, and a carriage movable relative to the second frame between a carriage stowed position and a carriage deployed position, and wherein the carriage is configured to support the netwrap roll.
