SEWING SYSTEM TO SECURE WRAP MATERIAL FOR AGRICULTURAL BALING SYSTEM
A wrapping system of an agricultural baling system includes a wrap directing system configured to direct a wrapping material to cover an entire periphery of a bale of crop material, such that a first portion of the wrapping material overlaps a second portion of the wrapping material. The wrapping system further includes a fastening system configured to secure the first portion of the wrapping material to the second portion of the wrapping material and a sewing system configured to sew the first portion and the second portion to one another.

Wrapping device, blocking device, baler and method for adjustment of a baler to a wrapping material
A wrapping device for wrapping a bale with a wrapping material for a baler includes a separating device having a knife arrangement and a blocking device. The separating device is movable between at least one wrapping means separating position and an inactive position. The blocking device prevents the separating device from being moved into the wrapping means separating position.
Test method for agricultural baler
A system and method for verifying the operational condition of a rectangular baler having a baling chamber equipped with a reciprocating plunger, the plunger moving between a fully retracted position and extended position, the baler further equipped with a load sensor suitable for determining the reaction force on the plunger as said plunger is compressing crops. Verifying the operational condition includes measuring the reaction force on the plunger or a parameter related to said reaction force, when the plunger is in a position in which it is not exerting a compressive force on the crop material in the baling chamber, comparing the measured reaction force or the parameter to a predefined reference value, and deriving from that comparison an assessment of the baler's condition

BALER WITH AUTOMATED POSITIONING OF PLUNGER
A baling system acts at shut-down to automatically pre-position a plunger so that it is just past a rear-dead-center position when the baler is restarted, thereby minimizing the load on a power take-off during the next restart. In particular, when the power take-off is deactivated, a control unit automatically brakes the power take-off so that the plunger stops in the desired position. Alternatively, the baling system acts at restart-up to automatically repeatedly activate and deactivate the power take-off in order to accelerate the plunger to a predetermined minimum operating speed before activating the power take-off for continuous operation, thereby maximizing a flywheel's momentum during the restart.
BALER WITH AUTOMATED SELECTION OF EJECTOR TEETH
A system for ejecting a bale from a baler, wherein the ejection process is controlled by a control unit with input from various sensors and from a remote operator located on a tractor. The control unit automatically positions a chute, controls a power take-off from the tractor, depressurizes and opens a chamber door, ties the bale, selects and causes ejector teeth to project into a forming chamber to engage the bale, causes the ejector teeth to move toward a discharge outlet such that the engaged bale moves with them toward and through the discharge outlet, and determines when the bale has fully ejected from the baler. The remote operator may choose to eject only the bale or to eject the entire contents of the forming chamber, and if the former, the control unit determines the bale's length and selects a subset of the ejector teeth that corresponds to that length.
Stripper Device for a Baler
A stripper device, for reducing adhesions on a movable part of a baler including a pressing apparatus interacting with a bale, has a scraper bar carrier with a scraping bar, wherein the scraping bar carrier can be movably connected to the baler and has a first position, in which the scraping bar is operatively abutted against the pressing apparatus, and a second position, in which the scraping bar is withdrawn from the pressing apparatus, wherein the scraping bar assumes the second position cyclically.
NON-STOP BALING SYSTEM
An agricultural baler system having a direction of travel and adapted to compile a windrow of crop into a bale, the agricultural baler system having a baler assembly coupled to the work machine and configured to consolidate crop from the underlying windrow into the bale, the baler assembly implementing a wrapping process to maintain the form of the bale and an eject process for ejecting the bale, and a windrow diverter selectively positionable between a divert position and a bypass position. Wherein, when the windrow diverter is in the divert position, the underlying windrow is repositioned as the baler assembly moves in the direction of travel.
Agricultural system
An agricultural system including an agricultural baler and a control unit. The baler includes a driveline including at least one heat generating component; a rotatable flywheel; a rotary input shaft connectable by the driveline to the rotatable flywheel; and at least one pump for supplying cooling fluid at a cooling fluid pressure to the at least one heat generating component. The control unit is configured to: receive baler-data indicative of one or more operating conditions of the agricultural baler; receive cooling-pressure-data indicative of a flow of the cooling fluid supplied by the at least one pump; set a threshold-condition based on the baler-data; and provide a control-signal to the agricultural baler based on a comparison between the cooling-pressure-data and the threshold-condition.
