Grab And Stack Big Squares Fast
The Forstack 8-12 big bale accumulator from Arcusin makes it easy to clear a field fast and load a flatbed even faster. The Spanish-made accumulator is designed to grab big square bales at up to 5 mph and stack them on the go while moving on to the next bale at up to 10 to 12 mph. Once loaded, it can drop the loads in the field or travel at road speed between the field and a storage building.
“It’s super quick, super simple and completely automatic,” says Michael Ray, U.S. sales manager for Arcusin. “It takes out human error by keeping the stack straight for loading on a flatbed.”
The stack is kept straight by Forstack’s unique, but simple design. Instead of stacking successive bales on top, it grabs each bale and raises it between vertical bars, while making room for the next bale below. Successive bales raise the previous bale, creating a tight, straight stack.
Ray points out that a lot of bales get stacked in the field, but often not straight. This often requires a second driver and tractor.
Fully loaded, the Forstack can carry four 3 by 3-ft. bales or three 4 by 4-ft. bales. “It is light and requires only a minimum of 100 hp. It’s pto driven, so there is not a lot of hydraulics.”
Ray says the Forstack is priced at $54,000 for 2022.
Ray has been signing up dealers in the U.S. since 2018. Yael Serena, head of marketing with Arcusin S.A., said they currently have two dealers in Canada, one in Manitoba and one in Alberta.
“In other areas of Canada, we sell direct from the factory,” says Serena.
