METHOD AND BALER FOR PRESSING BALES OF MATERIAL
20210008824 · 2021-01-14 · ·

The invention relates to a method for pressing bales of material in a baler. The method comprises the steps of feeding the material into the baler through an inlet, pre-compressing the material under a number of compressing cycles by means of a first press, transporting the pre-compressed material by means of a transport unit into a second press, and compressing the pre-compressed material by means of the second press into a finished bale of compressed material. The method is characterised in that the step of transporting the pre-compressed material by means of a transport unit into a second press is conducted in a space of the baler, such that an undesirable expansion of the pre-compressed material can be prevented. The invention is also related to a baler for pressing bales of material.
