Types
M Series Round Balers
Ready for Anything
Meet the most versatile of our round balers. Whether you’re working with dry hay, high moisture, or silage or you want precut crop with higher nutritional value that’s easier for your herd to digest, there’s an M model round baler that fits your need
R Series Round Balers
The Total Package
Smart, stylish, and built to last, the R Series Round Balers offer enhancements like the ISOBUS control monitor, cut out clutch drivelines, intelligent tractor-baler automation and heavier duty components. Plus, an exclusive two-year or 12,000-bale warranty1 further protects your investment
V Series Round Balers
Spend More Time Baling
Wasted hay is wasted money. And when you combine Tractor Baler Automation with the multi-crop capability of our balers, you’ll be rolling up windrows in no time. With 13- or 25 knife options, you can cut plant material into 3 in. (7.6 cm) or 1.6 in. (4.1 cm) lengths.
450E Round Baler
Economy Meets Productivity
No matter the size of your operation, you’ll get the perfect combination of economy and productivity with the 450E Round Baler. Available in a netwrap or twine configuration, you’ll speed up baling and improve bale quality.
MegaWide™ Dry and Silage Round Balers
Handle Windrows with Ease
Our MegaWide system is the perfect pickup for both dry hay and silage. Designed to gather more leaves and handle higher-volume windrows with ease, the MegaWide system has a working width of 71- to 87-in. (1.8 m to 2.2 m). The MegaTough™ pickup teeth provide greater strength and durability, while the patented self-adjusting roller baffle produces smoother crop flow.
MegaWide HC² High Capacity + Cutting Balers
Unprecedented Potential
When you bale and precut with the MegaWide HC² you're putting what’s in the windrow into the bale. Smaller, more nutritious pieces makes for a happier herd and less waste. Eliminating the need for a tub grinder also helps eliminate the additional cost of owning or contracting a tub grinding service. And with precut hay, you’ll have the added flexibility and convenience to make rations since the crop is already precut.
C451R Wrapping Baler
Increased Productivity
Bale heavy windrows faster with the C451R model wrapping baler. By combining the multi-crop capability of our V Series balers with the efficiency and innovation of our bale wrapping system, this baler is a true productivity powerhouse. Even in hilly terrain, the transfer table system provides efficient bale transfer that preserves bale shape. And by taking less than 8 seconds to unload a bale and close the rear curtain, you can produce and wrap up to 60 bales per hour for increased productivity.
Plus2 Accumulator Balers
Time, Crop and Cost Savings
Group bales where and when you want with the fully integrated2 round bale accumulators. By strategically placing bales in lines or in small groups, while making a third bale, you’ll be able to cut your pickup time by as much as 50%. That reduction in pickup time results in real savings of approximately $1.00 per bale in reduced logistics costs. And when you control the placement, you control field impact. Aligning bales for quick collection means less wheel traffic, which helps reduce field compaction and protects regrowth from multiple passes.

Technology
BaleTrak Pro
Available on balers without a precutter, the BaleTrack Pro is incredibly easy to use. Simply key in a function, and you’re on to the next bale. With the large clear display, the monitor is easy to read. But the real value is in the accuracy: a 24-bar bale shape indicator offers true look-ahead baling to help you make perfectly sized and shaped bales each time.
BaleTrak Plus
Balers equipped with the MegaWide HC² precutter feature the BaleTrak Plus. In addition to the features of the BaleTrak Pro, the BaleTrak Plus also offers the convenience of engaging/disengaging precutter knives and raising/lowering the hydraulic drop floor with the touch of a button.
