A large selection of round bale wrappers were on the stand at SIMA which was headlined by the McHale Orbital High Speed Round Bale Wrapper. This attracted particular interest from customers looking for a round bale wrapper capable of keeping up with multiple balers and the fact it is based on the proven wrapping technology from the Fusion proved very appealing to those in the industry. The latest product range from McHale to hit the French market is the McHale C4 Range of Silage Feeders & Straw Blowers. McHale displayed two models from this range at the show which included the McHale C430 linkage machine and the McHale C460 L which is a machine that has the capacity to handle two 5ft bales.

However, the main attraction on the McHale stand was the launch of the Pro Glide Mower Range for the first time in France. McHale demonstrated the impressive 17 degrees transverse pivot range and 500mm adaptive range of the F3100 Front Mower by showing the movement of the machine which proved a big attraction to visitors to the stand. The McHale Pro Glide R3100 Rear Mower and B9000 Combination Mowers also gained a lot of attention with farmers and contractors.

Overall, McHale showcased one of their biggest displays of machinery to date and would like to thank everyone who visited the stand throughout the five day show.
