FastBale

Revolutionary new FastBale from Kubota: transforms baling and wrappingForget the stop-start tedium of round baling. With it’s unique dual chamber design, FastBale keeps on baling when other machines are stopped. Kubota FastBale at a stroke renders all other baler-wrappers obsolete. A host of new technology and techniques are introduced by Kubota FastBale. Each one designed to increase productivity and reduce stress during your working day.

Non-Stop balingFastBale truly eliminates the stop/go frustration of conventional round baling. FastBale is designed with two full roller fixed chambers. The pre-chamber is two thirds of the size of the main chamber and receives the crop flow while net is applied and the bale ejected from the main bale chamber. The large diameter feed rotor gives superb intake capacity to both bale chambers.

New wrapping conceptFastBale’s innovative wrapping system incorporates twin satellites which rotate about the vertical axis, with the bale supported on two powered rollers. This layout substantially reduces the space required for rotation of the film, resulting in a more compact machine, faster operation and higher precision when wrapping.

Superb bale qualityFastBale incorporates two fully functioning bale chambers. Crop is first compressed in the pre-chamber, before being compressed a second time in the main bale chamber. Double compression of the crop results in dense high quality bales. A number of rollers are shared between the two chambers contributing to the compact overall dimensions of FastBale, whilst also reducing cost and complexity.

Simple bale transfer from baler to wrapperNo need for a complex bale transfer system here. The wrapper is lowered to receive the bale directly from the main bale chamber. The wrapper’s main frame also avoids any risk of a bale being lost out the back of the wrapper when working on hilly land, improving operational safety compared to other systems.

Gentle bale dischargeFastBale has a unique method of discharging the wrapped bale. When wrapping is complete, the rear roller is lifted. This gently places the bale onto the ground, rather than rolling it off the wrapping table, greatly reducing the risk of the bale rolling away when working on hilly land.

Improved operator comfortFastBale provides fully electronic operation. This not only increases productivity significantly, but stress and fatigue for the operator are reduced. The only operation the operator needs to choose, is whether to control the release of the wrapped bale. Eliminating the stop-start of a conventional round baler also helps reduce the wear and tear on the tractor.

How it works:

The bale is formed in the main bale chamber in the conventional manner until the required density is reached.

The tailgate opens and the completed bale rolls directly on to the wrapper by gravity.

Crop flow continues to fill the pre-chamber until the pre-set density is reached.

When the bale is fully formed, the crop flow, is diverted to the pre-chamber, while net is applied to the completed bale.

The wrapper is raised to its working position and wrapping commences.

Crop flow and pre-compressed crop are transferred to the main bale chamber.

A compact package that makes a huge impact!

FastBale: The flexible solutionThe innovative design of FastBale provides superb adaptability with the possibility to work in a variety of different modes, according to varying crop types and end user requirements:• Baling and wrapping in non-stop mode: The new standard for

maximum output.• Baling only in non-stop mode, with the wrapper raised, bales are

discharged directly from the main bale chamber, with no delay or transfer required.

• Baling only in non-stop mode with the wrapping unit down, but wrapping deactivated. Bales can be discharged in ‘pairs’ for more efficient collection.

• Baling in main chamber only (non-stop off). Used when baling very dry crops.

• Baling and wrapping using the main chamber only (non-stop off).

With its unique combination of abilities, FastBale offers a truly flexible solution for all of your baling and wrapping requirements, while simultaneously increasing operator comfort and productivity to new levels.

Despite its non-stop capability, FastBale is extremely compact. With its pre-chamber located above the large diameter intake rotor and several chamber rollers shared between both bale chambers, mechanical complexity is kept to a minimum. Combined with its revolutionary vertical folding satellite wrapping system, convenient road transport and easy access from the tightest roads is assured.
