Higher operating speeds are possible with the Massey Ferguson cam-less pick-up design.

With fewer moving parts, the cam-less pick-up is quieter, simpler and more reliable. Low maintenance and less adjustments save time and increase productivity.

The pick-up system has five tine bars with each one being spaced only 64mm apart, providing higher capacity and a smoother even feed at high speed.

On the Massey Ferguson round balers, the pick-up is positioned very closely to the rotor, therefore improving crop flow and reducing the risk of blockage.

The bale chamber is made up of 18 Powergrip rollers which ensure an effective grasp and quicker bale rotation for higher density and improved bale shape.

Rollers with 10 ribs are made from a seamless solid tube. They are the industry benchmark for durability and performance, known for their proven design and capability to withstand the harshest environments.

Powersplit Gearbox

The Powersplit gearbox equally divides and transfers power to drive the rotor unit on one side and the roller drives on the other, reducing the overall power requirements by simplifying the drivelines. This results in a more efficient baler which uses less fuel.

Bearing Housing Design

The bale chamber can experience extreme loads with forces from all directions. The clever bearing housing design allows some movement of the rollers to eliminate major axial loads occurring during operation.

Lubrication

Automatic chain lubrication with individual adjustment for each chain guarantees sufficient oil supply, reduces maintenance time and extends chain service life. For added durability the highest quality chains are used throughout the baler. 

Regular and sufficient lubrication of roller bearings is extremely important, particularly in adverse conditions, for example when baling silage. Centralized grease banks for roller bearing lubrication are located in convenient positions for easier access and reduced service time.
