HS2000 Round Bale Wrapper

Bale Loading - McHale -HS2000 High Speed Round Bale Wrapper

The McHale HS2000 round bale wrapper loads from the front and picks up the round bale as it comes out of the round baler. This means that when the HS2000 round bale wrapper is working behind a tractor there is no need to cross the swaths to pick up the next round bale. When working behind a fixed or variable chamber round baler the spring mounted lift arm on the HS2000 round bale wrapper will float down to the ground, which allows the bale to easily pass from the baler to the HS2000 round bale wrapper. In more testing conditions the lift arm can be programmed to move to one side, which allows it to cradle in around the bale after the bale passes from the baler to the HS2000 round bale wrapper.

The Wrapping Table - McHale - HS2000 High Speed Round Bale Wrapper

The wrapping table on the HS2000 round bale wrapper tilts forward for bale loading, this allows the round bale to gently pass from the lift arm to the bale wrapping table, reducing the stress on the chassis of the HS2000 round bale wrapper.

When the bale is on the table the wrapping cycle commences. The bale wrapping table on the HS2000 round bale wrapper is constructed of four heavy-duty belts, which ensures a smooth and even bale rotation even when dealing with loose or asymmetric bales.

A smooth wrapping seal is guaranteed as the machine delivers a 50% overlap. When the wrapping cycle is complete the wrapping table on the HS2000 round bale wrapper tilts rearward and the round bale is gently placed on the ground.

Dispensers - McHale - HS2000 High Speed Round Bale Wrapper

The HS2000 round bale wrapper is fitted with two 750mm aluminium dispensers, which are standard on all McHale high-speed round bale wrappers. The dispensers maintain a consistent stretch, which maximises film usage. The unit consists of two aluminium rollers, which are geared to each other with robust steel gears of different ratios.

This twin satellite HS2000 round bale wrapper takes approximately 20 seconds to apply four layers or 30 seconds to apply six layers of film to the round bale. This means that in inline mode behind a fixed or variable chamber round baler the HS2000 high-speed round bale wrapper will match the round balers output.

Automatic Film Break Sensing - McHale - HS2000 High Speed Round Bale Wrapper

Automatic Film Break sensing comes as standard on the HS2000 round bale wrapper. This ensures that if one of the rolls of film breaks or runs out the HS2000 round bale wrapper will detect this and slow bale rotation and increase the number of revolutions of the satellite to ensure that the bale is wrapped correctly.

If both rolls of film break or run out the HS2000 round bale wrapper notifies the operator in the cab via the control box that the machine is out of film.

Quick Fit Film Loading - McHale - HS2000 High Speed Round Bale Wrapper

The McHale HS2000 round bale wrapper is fitted with a lock and load film loading system. When the operator removes the core of the empty film roll, the top roller locks in the open position. When the new roll is loaded the operator simply pulls the cord and the top roller is released and locks down on the new roll.

Cut and Hold - McHale - HS2000 High Speed Round Bale Wrapper

As with all McHale round bale wrappers, the reliability of the cut and hold system is of the utmost importance. The HS2000 round bale wrapper, collects the film in the cut and tie rails and then gathers it to one point where it is held and then cut. This system ensures better grip and provides more consistent superior performance, particularly in hot or wet conditions.

Autopark/ Unpark - McHale - HS2000 High Speed Round Bale Wrapper

The HS2000 round bale wrapper comes standard with an auto park function, which allows the operator to fold up the machine for transport.

At the end of a job by simply selecting the auto park function on the control box the HS2000 round bale wrapper will automatically fold into its narrowest position for transportation. On arriving at the next job when the auto unpark function is selected the HS2000 round bale wrapper will fold itself out into the working position.

HS2000 Control Box

The HS2000 is a fully automatic machine. From the control console the operator can select:

- The number of layers of wrap
- A number of totals to store bale numbers for individual jobs
- A full automatic cycle for flat ground or a semi-automatic cycle for hilly ground (operator selects tip function when appropriate).

The operator can also select an autopark function when leaving the field which will narrow the machine to it narrowest point for road transportation. On arrival at the next job the operator can select auto unpark and the machine will move into the working position.

The HS2000 is also fitted with film break sensors which monitor the film as it goes onto the bale. If one roll of plastic breaks or runs out the machine will notify the operator through the control console and automatically move to single dispenser mode. In single dispenser mode the machine slows bale rotation and increase the number of rotations of the satellite to compensate for the broken roll of film. If the rolls of plastic on both dispensers break or run out the control console will notify the operator with an out of film message.
