2019 McHale Fixed Chamber Round Balers F5600 Plus

The McHale F5600 PLUS is fitted with a servo operated load sensing control valve, which makes the baling process fully automatic. The machine is also equipped with a 25 knife chopping unit and an in chamber film bale binding system.

Features may include:

• Film on film technology refers to the application of film to the barrel of the bale in the bale chamber. The film binds the bale together which eliminates the need for string or net wrap. The film that binds the bale together forms a wrap layer and gives better film or plastic coverage on the largest surface of the bale.

• In the development of the McHale F5600 Plus, McHale realised that changes in temperature and sun light could affect the chamber wrapping film, in that, as the day got hotter or cooler the film was either being overstretched or under stretched, and this in turn would cause reliability problems and result in inefficient film use.

• On the McHale F5600 Plus Film Binding Baler, the left hand side of the gearbox drives rollers in the bale chamber, while the pick up and chopper unit are driven from the right hand side of the machine. This system ensures direct short transfer paths and optimal power distribution.

• The McHale F5600 Plus Film Binding Baler is equipped with a 2.1 metre galvanised pick up, which lifts even the shortest of crop. Accurate height control can be achieved through a spring balanced hydraulic lifting system. The F5600 Plus Film Binding Baler comes standard with pneumatic guide wheels, which contact the ground on exactly the same line as the tines and guide the pick up perfectly over uneven ground.

• The McHale F5600 Plus Film Binding Baler is equipped with the same high capacity 25 knife chopper unit and rotor as the McHale Fusion 3 integrated baler wrapper. As crop enters the spiral rotor, pairs of rotating tines feed the crop through the chopping unit. The double tines on the rotor ensure high output while the spiral layout reduces the load peaks as the F5600 Plus Film Binding Baler works in heavy swarths.

• The McHale F5600 Plus Film Binding Baler is designed to achieve maximum output, however as baling conditions are not always ideal, uneven swarths can occur, which can lead to blockages. The main drive chain on the F5600 Plus Film Binding Baler is protected by a slip clutch on the PTO.

• The bale chamber on the McHale F5600 Plus Film Binding Baler produces a 1.23 X 1.25 metre round bale. The bale chamber on the F5600 Plus baler is comprised of 18 heavy duty rollers. Chamber bearings are 50mm, with double raced bearings on the main load points to stand up to the most testing conditions.

• The bearings are supported by a progressive greasing system.

• Each time a bale is ejected from the machine, grease passes through the respective progressive blocks.
