- Enhanced Durability: These gearboxes are built to withstand harsh farming conditions, providing reliable performance over an extended service life.
- Efficient Power Transmission: They efficiently transfer power from the tractor to the baler, ensuring optimal baler performance and productivity.
- Speed and Torque Control: The gearboxes adjust the speed and torque from the tractor to suit the baler’s operational needs.
- Versatility: They are compatible with a wide range of baler models and tractors, offering flexibility for various farming applications.
- Easy Maintenance: With simple design and robust construction, these gearboxes are easy to maintain and service.
We manufacture high-performance gearboxes for round balers, offering a perfect replacement for damaged parts on your agricultural machinery.
Applications of High-Performance Gearboxes for Round Balers
- Hay Baling: They are widely used in hay baling operations, where they help in the gathering, compacting and wrapping of hay into round bales.
- Straw Baling: In straw baling, the gearboxes control the baler’s operations to produce tightly packed straw bales for easy transport and storage.
- Silage Baling: For silage baling, the gearboxes adjust the power to optimise the baler’s performance, ensuring the production of high-quality silage bales.
- Specialty Crop Baling: They are also used in specialty crop baling, such as cotton, corn stover, and biomass, where they help to handle the unique baling requirements of these crops.
- Industrial Baling: In addition to agriculture, these gearboxes are also used in industrial baling applications, such as waste paper, cardboard, and plastic baling.
