Systems and methods for controlling a configuration of a bale chute of a baler and, particularly, a square baler are disclosed. In some implementations, methods include determining a condition of a baler to determine whether a bale chute of the baler is to be extended or retracted.

An axle arrangement for a baler includes a first axle, a second axle, and a pair of elongate members. The first axle has first and second ends. First and second suspension cylinders are positioned at the first and second ends. The first axle is coupled with the chassis. The second axle has first and second ends. First and second suspension cylinders are positioned at the first and second ends to accommodate generally vertical loads. A first elongate member interconnects the first end of the second axle with the first end of the first axle. A second elongate member interconnects the second end of the second axle with the second end of the first axle.

A baler includes: a bale forming channel, a reciprocating plunger configured to compress bale material in the bale forming channel to form a bale, and a binding system for binding a bale in the bale forming channel with a pair of twines that pass around opposite sides of the bale. The binding system includes a knotter that includes a rotary bill hook, a twine holder, a twine cutter and a stripper element. The bill hook includes a catching element that is configured to adopt an open configuration to release a retained twine from the bill hook after a knot formed by the knotter is removed from the bill hook by the stripper element, so that the cut end of the twine is not pulled through the knot. The catching element is moved to the open configuration by an opening element that acts against the resilient biasing element, without rotating the bill hook beyond the second position.

A baling press for baling cotton gin trash and other particulate biomass feedstock. The baling press generally includes an infeed chute assembly, a compression ram assembly, an extrusion chamber assembly, a strapping storage and dispensing assembly, and a strapping insertion assembly. The present invention also relates to methods of producing a bale with the baling press and a bale generated by the baling press and described methods.

A square baler comprising a first bale-forming area in which are formed a first series of first individual bales, and a second bale-forming area in which are formed a second series of second individual bales. The square baler additionally comprises a singulator configured to receive the first and second individual bales from the first and second bale-forming areas and to form a single row of the first and second individual bales.
