The Slat & Chain Processing Chamber Available on the CFR 651 Bale Pro & CFR 1251 Bale Pro ® The Highline flails efficiently lift and “bite” into the bale for uniform feed processing. The flails are optimally sized to grab the bale. (Many competitors' bale processors are designed with longer flails. The longer flail, when it encounters ice or other debris, will quite often crack when it rebounds onto the drum.) The flails are designed in a spiral formation. This spiral formation ensures that the bale is continuously pulled and processed resulting in consistent feed. Also, the flail drum is digitally...

YOUR LOADING EFFICIENCY. When it comes to loading efficiency, bale orientation matters. Loading Efficiency (for Square Bales): Lining up a bale for loading can be a challenging task. It stands to reason that the larger the visible target area, the easier it is to align and load. This is why the CFR 960 Bale Pro® was designed to align with the bale length as opposed to its width making loading faster and easier. Efficiency is further enhanced with the CleanCutTM Twine Release system that quickly cuts through bale twine prior to processing. The loose bale uniformly and efficiently processes. LARGE...

EFFICIENT PROCESSING One of the challenges of processing square bales is maintaining both a high loading AND high processing efficiency (the competition fails to deliver on either one OR the other). This is because whenever the orientation of the bale isn’t optimally placed for either loading (large face aligned with tractor) or processing (length aligned with flail drum), efficiency is compromised. For optimal processing, the Highline Design Team addressed this issue by developing a system that turns the square bale so that it rests lengthwise in the tub (in alignment with the flail drum). The...
