ROLL BALER

New Holland has a long and illustrious baling heritage which stretches right back to the very beginning of baling itself. Over more than seven decades of continuous evolution, countless innovations which have revolutionised baling efficiency, productivity and comfort have been introduced which today, make New Holland the worldwide leader in baling technology.

New Holland has completely redesigned the front of the Roll Baler 125 range, starting with an all-new drawbar design and working through to a 2.3m wide New Holland pick-up. Other improvements include a new front platform for better access to the wrapping system and an improved turn angle for tighter headland turns.

From the pick-up, how material is passed into the bale chamber is critical to both performance and producing a consistent and firm bale. With the proven New Holland feed rotor system, Roll Baler 125 and Roll Baler 125 Combi balers now benefit from improved management of the 20 knife CropCutter™ system. Selecting the degree of slicing, with a choice of easy swapping between selected blade banks, reduces downtime to boost productivity

Fixed chamber Roll Baler 125 models are built tough to handle heavy bales. The rigid bale chamber is fitted with 18 cold formed rolls. These are 200mm in diameter and now have a new surface profile. This further improves full crop contact for a positive start to the baling process but is matched to close roller to roller clearance to minimise crop losses. Performance in difficult conditions is improved ensuring dense, consistently shaped bales are produced.

New Holland has asked customers how they operate their balers and use the bales they produce. This has resulted in the Roll Baler 125 and Roll Baler 125 Combi featuring different net / film wrap systems.

New Holland has continued to refine the in-line wrapping process it first used on the 548 Combi back in 2003. Designed to allow freshly produced bales to be wrapped securely over difficult terrain and reliably in both cool and hot working conditions, the integral wrapper of the Roll Baler 125 Combi is, thanks to their twin satellite arms, fast enough to allow any multiple of wraps required by the end user.

Roll Baler 125 models are built to work in difficult terrain. Even as the bale chamber fills and the wrapper of Combi models is in action, the centre of gravity remains low. The new Roll Baler 125 models are offered with greater tyre choice.

Roll Baler models are specifically designed for demanding large livestock and heavy contract users. They are built to work with heavy grass, dense hay and forage crops. They bale dry straw, gather irregular swaths and cope with difficult terrain. Rugged and versatile. Key features include:

1 - Purpose designed chassis to carry exceptionally heavy bales
2 - Heavy-duty sprockets
3 - Individual drive chains, each chosen to match the job
4 - Centralised Lincoln automatic lubrication system as standard (key bearings and chains)
New large capacity oil and grease reservoirs
5 - Heavy duty lubricated sleeve roller bearings
6 - Centre drive gearbox
7 - Robust and proven New Holland five-bar pick-up

The new Roll Baler 125 Combi takes the well-proven in-line wrap system of predecessor models but adds new features for improved performance and dependability. As before, operators can choose between 500mm or 750mm film, but now the speed of the twin satellite arms has increased by 20%. This means:

• Faster wrapping
• Apply more layers with no impact on productivity
• Automatically match number of layers selected to turntable speed
• Extra bale rotation to secure the cut end of film
• Easier loading of new film rolls
• Spare wrap capacity of 10 rolls
• Fully covered wrap storage boxes
• Fold down pillars ease loading spare rolls
• Roll storage boxes open out for better service access

Down time is the enemy of productivity. New Holland has worked hard to ensure all Roll Baler models are easy to set up, straightforward to drive and have simple servicing requirements. The fine details have been carefully considered. Loading full rolls of net wrap and film is simple, with sealed storage to help keep the operator clean when swapping rolls of stretch film. Daily greasing and routine checks are easy to remember and simple to carry out. Convenient tool storage is also a feature on the two larger models in the range. With New Holland Roll Balers, you spend more time working.
