New Holland BigBaler High Density

SUPERIOR AND HIGHLY EFFICIENT 29 KNIFE CROPCUTTER™ SYSTEM

The CropCutter™ system’s is now available with either 15 knives for a medium cut or 29 knives for a short cut. Each individual knife has spring protection and paired rotor fingers per knife, guarantees a controlled cutting action and superior cutting performance through the slice at any load. An optional hard-faced rotor is available for a guaranteed long lifetime.

HIGH DENSITY PERFORMANCE

The BigBaler 1290 High Density doesn’t only produce up to 22% higher density versus conventional balers and up to 15% higher compare to the BigBaler Plus range, it also delivers higher productivity, even more so than the current BigBaler plus range. This is in part, thanks to the new five-bar pickup, which helps feed in crop at higher rates.

POWERFUL IMPRESSIVE PLUNGER

The plunger plays a critical role in bale density. That’s why the BigBaler 1290 High Density has an improved plunger design, giving impressive results: it delivers a 748mm stroke whilst exerting an extreme plunger force – a whopping 58% more than Plus models, for even denser bales.

LOOP MASTER™ KNOTTING TECHNOLOGY

The BigBaler 1290 High Density features New Holland’s Loop Master™ knotting technology. Building on the brand’s renowned double knotting system, the second knot is now a loop style, which is 37% stronger compare to a standard knot. This results in an up to 26% increase in overall tensile strength for reduced breakages. Perhaps more importantly however, it eliminates twine offcuts – which are currently left in the fields, and can even find their way into fodder. This might not sound much but consider that over six kilometres or 46kg of twine are saved in a 10,000 bale season.

CENTRALISED CONTROL

During long baling days, small things can make a big difference, so just imagine what a significant impact big things can have. The user interface on the IntelliView™ IV colour touchscreen display has been completely redesigned to enable operators to control the main functions from the screen, including specific, direct-access ‘action’ buttons, which can be used to control features such as bale density, bale length and PTO engagement.

MYPLM® CONNECT

MyPLM®Connect enables you to connect to your BigBaler 1290 High Density from the comfort of your office and monitor over 27 machine operating parameters through the utilization of the mobile network. You can stay in touch with your machine at all times, and can even send and receive real-time information that saves time and enhances productivity.

STEERABLE AXLES

The Auto-Steer tandem axle makes for more efficient turning and less field scarring. The baler’s wheelbase has also been extended to deliver a best in class steering angle for even tighter turns, making for shorter headlands, as well as facilitating road transport and improved servicing access.

HIGH CAPACITY PACKER MODELS

The new high capacity Packer models feature 3, 9-tine packer forks. Manufactured with heavy duty components to ensure durability and to match the baler’s high throughput. What’s more, the overload protection clutch on Packer models is 25% higher than BigBaler Plus Packer models.

GETTING UP TO BALING SPEED QUICKLY

The award winning SmartShift™ gearbox features two-speed start-up technology to deliver even smoother baler engagement, which means your tractor driveline is always protected during baler engagement. How does it work? Once the PTO reaches 850rpm the easy-start feature engages the baler and automatically shifts from 1st to 2nd gear, accelerating the flywheel to a maximum speed of 1440rpm at full tractor PTO speed, one of the highest flywheel speeds in the segment. The flywheel is also significantly heavier than on BigBaler Plus models, and has a 16% larger diameter, coming in at 1080mm. But, it’s not just about flywheel size, it’s all to do with energy generated. Higher speed multiplied by larger size delivers 230% more energy than on BigBaler Plus models.
