Two Behind Wrapper and Bale Trailer BALE HANDLING Bale Handling (31B) 22-1-29 The Finnish company NHK started selling wrappers in 1986 and nearly every year since then they've come out with new designs. This year at Agritechnica they showed off a new tow-behind wrapper (above) and a bale trailer (below) that pick up several bales and wrap them one after the other before unloading them.
The tow-behind unit ties into the tailgate on the baler so that it knows when a bale is about to be ejected and automatically gets into position to receive the bale. A double-arm wrapping system is available which reduces wrapping time in half. Operation is fully automatic with manual override from the tractor seat.
The wrapping bale trailer collects up to six 5-ft. bales using front-mount loading arms. When unloading, bales are moved one at a time onto a rear wrapping table where a double wrapping arm quickly wraps the bale and then drops it on the ground. The machine can transport, wrap and unload 40 bales per hour, de-pending on how far you have to transport.
