Farmers now have to rely on bale wrapping equipment in processing the forage they will store. At least they can have a supply of fodder for the next one or one and a half years. Weather and climate which are increasingly erratic from year to year should be a trigger for farmers to be even more active in trying to store forage better.
The weather can change in just 8 to 12 hours on the same day. When you are busy hunting forage in friendly sunny weather, not long after it rains heavily and you don’t have time to protect the abundant forage. Likewise at other times when the weather is cloudy and windy, then suddenly dry, which makes your forages lose a lot of water content before they can be processed for storage.
So, you have to prepare the right way from now on by focusing more on your daily use of bale wrapping equipment.

Bale Wrapping Equipment Semi-Automatic
Maybe there are still many farmers who doubt the importance of bale wrapping equipment in forage processing for longer-lasting storage. They are still considering using semi-automatic equipment first to see how well the forage is wrapped and how long it lasts. Besides, this semi-automatic bale wrapping machine also has a more economical price than a fully automatic machine.
If you have ruminants such as cows, sheep, deer, and horses, you need silage that can preserve forage and green juicy feed such as hay, fresh corn, pasture, wheat straw, rice, soybeans, and many more. This semi-automatic bale wrapping machine will usually be able to print 30 bales of round silage per hour. If it is grass silage, the number of bales can even reach 50 bales per hour.
Important Parts of Semi-Automatic Bale Wrapping Equipment
When we want to buy bale wrapping equipment for daily use in the fields, we can’t be careless. We must examine in detail the function and quality of the equipment. For semi-automatic bale wrapping, it is equipped with two important parts that will make bale wrapping work easier.
Baller Room
This is a special container where forage crops are put to be compacted. After the bundle of forage enters about 80 kilograms, then the balling process will work starting with the signal wheel rotating at a constant speed. The winding clutch handle will then be pulled and there is a rope that can be used for the propeller.
Once the baling is complete, the rope will then be cut, and the worker will pull the opening handle to make the bundle pop out.
Wrapping Part
Next place bales on two parallel belts of the wrapping machine. Then press the switch that will move the frame to rotate the bales so that the bales can be wrapped automatically according to the predetermined number of layers. Layers of plastic bales are usually between two to four layers for this semi-automatic bale wrapping equipment.
Excess Baler Is Profitable
After working with bale wrapping equipment, you may notice if there is excess baler in storage space. You can sell the balers to farmers who need feed. You can make one big bale into several small bales that can be sold according to the needs of the buyers.
There is special bale wrapping equipment that you can use to re-ball those big bales. It is a bale unroller. Connect the three-point attachment on the bale unroller to the tractor. Furthermore, big round bales measuring 5’ and 6’ can be brought in to be processed into small bales.
All the equipment from the bale unroller can help you in spreading bales without cutting. The process is also easy and can reload small bales quickly. Check our biggest bale wrapper 850 for bales with weight more than 850kg.
