Basic components in big baler part 11 12. Oiling & greasing

12. Oiling & greasing

A.Oiler

•An automatic central lubrication distribution system takes oil from the pump and provides a constant regulated oil supply to the drive chains•

•The fixed displacement system ensures that each chain receives the correct amount of lubrication

• Integrated automatic oilier

• Doses controlled with an electrical motor commanded by BCM-VT.

•Do NOT put motor continuously ON. This will burn out the motor.

B. Grease pump

•Centralised greasing is standard

•Seven main distribution blocks, 80 grease points.

•An optional automatic centralised greasing system is available

•The greasing rate can be adjusted on the monitor

•The automatic greasing models maintain the manual grease nipples for additional greasing in very dusty conditions or to clear blocked lines

•Automatic greasing system = centralised greasing system with pump.

•Pressure up to 350 bar.

Basic components in big baler part 9 10. Twine box + twine guides

10. Twine box + twine guides 

•30 balls in total sufficient for a long full days baling•

•2 spools fed from top,
3 spools fed from bottom•

•Easy refillable•

•Sealed to reduce trash ingress•

•Rubber strips prevent bales from turning•

Basic components in big baler part 8 9. Bale chamber

9. Bale chamber

A.Shape

•Side walls and top section moves•

•2 density cylinders compress the bale•

•Density adjustable through monitor and the BCM adjusts the hydraulic pressure to maintain the preset level.

B. Hay dogs

Bottom haydogs bolted on version

C. Eject system

Standard : Full chamber cleanout

Option : Last bale eject

D. Mechanical bale length control

•Bale Length is set by removing the quick attach pin and repositioning the trip arm stop into the desired position•

•A guide decal will assist in selecting the positions for specific bale lengths•

Basic components in big baler part 7 8. Knotter

8. Knotter

A.Knotter drive shaft + protection

•Protected with shearbolt. (replace every 2500 bales)

●•Knotters are shaft driven from the stuffer gearbox

•

•Knotter & driveline protection is provided by a shearbolt

•Contains the sensor for PTO rpm control.

•Sensor receives signal of crowngear inside gearbox (z = 68 ; n = 11/68)

C. Stack assembly

••Knotters are not painted but treated with special black anodising for reliable knotter performance from 1st bale onwards.

•Easy accessible through flip-up cover and removable side shields•

•A sensor (new position) on the guard will indicate to the operator that the guard is in the open position by displaying a warning message on the monitor

D. Twine finger

E. Knotter brake

• Large diameter knotter brake disc offers a smoother quieter cycle, reduced knotter shearbolt breakages and reduced needle damage.

•Function: - To keep constant load on needles during tying cycle.

                  - Help to hold needles in fix position.

                  - Prevent needles from overrunning.

• Spring length 32 mm

F. Knotter fans

                •The knotter fans are activated from the monitor and will start automatically as soon as the PTO speed exceeds 600 rpm•

•Knotter fans can easily be lifted up and parked to allow

 acces to the twine tensioners and knotters.

Knotter fan assembly can be lifted and parked for easy access for twine threading at start off.

G. Needles

Wider needle rollers with no gap beside the roller for the twine to get trapped. 

Basic components in big baler part 6 7. Plunjer

7. Plunjer

•Specifications :

  42 strokes / min. 

  71 cm per stroke

  integrated grease lines

•Adjustable plunger face scrapers on top, bottom and sides to reduce crop losses•

•Large, externally adjustable rollers.

Basic components in big baler part 5 6. Rotor

6. Rotor

•improved rotor scraper design
= improved function & stronger design = fewer blockages and greater output

• teeth spacing reduced from 16.5mm to 11mm
= improved cut and greater efficiency
= reduced power consumption

Feeder opening on rotor cutter machines is wider than the bale

This wider opening helps to feed crop to the sides of the bale ensuring better filled bales

Rotor cutter BB9060 – 1000 mm wide

Rotor cutter BB9070/BB9080 – 1400 mm wide

Rotor turns at 86 rpm

The rotor tines are paired, with one shorter than the other to

  - help crop flow

  - prevent rotor blockages

Behind the rotor, scrapers maintain the rotor clean. 

• More durable scraper beam• Deep drawn feeder floor for smoother crop flow (instead of welded assy – rotor cutter units only)

B. Rotor cutout clutch

The  clutch needs greasing every 250 hrs

C. Knives

1. Standard knife                                                                            1. Rotor units

2. Straw knife

3. False knife

Hard faced knives as DIA

D. Knive drawer

0.8m rotor medium cut – 11 knives

0.8m rotor short cut option – 23 knives

1.2m rotor medium cut – 17 knives

1.2m rotor medium cut – 33 knives

Medium cut is sufficient for more than 80% of the customers.

When replacing knives, there is no longer need to unlock the knives.
