A wrapping assembly includes: a material roll that holds a roll of wrapping material; a duckbill assembly including a duckbill carrying a duckbill roll that draws material from a roll of wrapping material held by the material roll, the duckbill being movable between a first position and a second position; a duckbill actuator coupled to the duckbill that moves the duckbill between the first position and the second position; a variable brake associated with the material roll that applies a variable braking force to the material roll; and a controller operatively coupled to the duckbill actuator and the brake. The controller determines that a load on the duckbill actuator exceeds a threshold value and outputs a brake reduction signal to the brake so the brake reduces applied braking force to the material roll when the load on the duckbill actuator exceeds the threshold value.

A mechanism for tying roll bales, which allows tying and protecting the edges of the roll bales during the tying process, ensuring that the geometry thereof is kept throughout time.

The invention relates to a belt (1) with a first belt end (11) and a second belt end (12), both belt ends (11, 12) being connected together. The belt (1) is characterized in that the first belt end (11) has at least one first segment (13) and a second segment (14), and the second belt end (12) has at least one first segment (15) and a second segment (16). The first segment (13) of the first belt end (11) is connected to the first segment (15) of the second belt end (12) by means of at least one connection element (17), and the second segment (14) of the first belt end (11) is connected to the second segment (16) of the second belt end (12) by means of at least one other connection element (17), wherein the first segment (13) of the first belt end (11) is offset in the longitudinal direction (X) in some sections relative to the second segment (14) of the first belt end (11), and the first segment (15) of the second belt end (12) is offset in the longitudinal direction (X) in some sections relative to the second segment (16) of the second belt end (12).

A worm conveyor is proposed for a press, in particular an agricultural baler, having at least one roll, screw flights winding in opposing directions at least in some regions around the roll being provided on the peripheral surface thereof for conveying material, wherein the screw flights are configured such that they bring together the material in two collecting regions arranged outside a central region of the worm conveyor. A press, in particular an agricultural baler having at least one roller, a flexible pressing means winding around the roller and at least one worm conveyor are also proposed.

A wrapping assembly includes: a material roll configured to hold a roll of wrapping material; a duckbill assembly including a duckbill carrying a duckbill roll and configured to draw material from a roll of wrapping material held by the material roll; a duckbill actuator coupled to the duckbill to move the duckbill between an insert position and a home position; a variable brake associated with the material roll and configured to apply a variable braking force to the material roll; and a controller operatively coupled to the duckbill actuator and the brake. The controller is configured to: determine an averaged electric current draw of the duckbill actuator during a sampling period is below a defined value and responsively output a brake increase signal so the brake increases applied braking force to the material roll by a defined amount.

A bale monitoring system includes an imaging device that is operable to capture a stereoscopic image of a bale. A computing compares the stereoscopic image of the bale to a three-dimensional standard to identify a deviation of the bale from the three-dimensional standard. The computing device may then assign the bale a shape quality score based on the deviation of the bale from the three-dimensional standard. The shape quality score may indicate a magnitude of the deviation of the bale from the three-dimensional standard. Additionally, the stereoscopic image may be analyzed to identify characteristics of the bale, such as a broken wrap material or an improperly formed bale.

A feeding assembly for an agricultural vehicle includes: a frame; a rotatable auger supported by the frame and including at least one flighting; and a pickup assembly including a rotatable pickup reel and a plurality of tines rotatably carried by the pickup reel about a rotation axis, the tines being configured to pickup and convey crop material to the auger during rotation of the pickup reel. The pickup reel is movable relative to the auger such that movement of the pickup reel adjusts a distance between the rotation axis and the at least one flighting of the auger.
