The Extreme 365 Series round baler produces bales 120 cm wide and up to 160 cm tall. The bale diameter can be adjusted from 50 to 160 cm to meet feeding and handling requirements. From the cab, the driver can also set the bale density from 50 to 210 bar, for a minimum weight of 310 kg of straw to 950 kg of green product.
The baling chamber is featured with a special tensioning arms system:
a primary belt tensioner defines the initial geometry of the bale core while the secondary one automatically compensates for the chain tension. In case of soft-core, the secondary tensioner reduce the action of the primary one so the pressure exerted in the chamber is absolutely zero. Thanks to a sensor on the tensioning arms, the driver is always kept in the picture regarding the current bale diameter.
The baling chamber is featured with four 3-layer belts in order to surround the entire width of the bale reducing crop loss and maintaining crop quality. The extra-wide pick-up (220 cm) is equipped with hydraulic lifting system and pins adjustable gauge wheels to set-up the pick-up at the desired gauge height.
Different cutting rotors are available with 15 (HTC model) or 25 (HTU) knifes to size even the toughest product. Extreme 356 series offer fewer heavy-duty drive chains (1’’¼) automatically tensioned by a double spring system and lubricated by a centralized lubricating system. The automatic chain lubrication system benefits from a large oil tank. All lubrication points are clustered in easy-access lubrication banks, making service and maintenance less time consuming and more convenient. Drop floor system enables you to unclog crop without ejecting the bale or exiting the cab, saving you time and effort without sacrificing bale quality. The drop floor doesn't open but it expands downward opening a passage for excess material to flow out.
