Round balers
PÖTTINGER sets a new standard in baler technology with the new IMPRESS round baler. Precision multiplied by performance equals impressive working results. That is the key formula for the new PÖTTINGER round baler IMPRESS. The IMPRESS will be available as a fixed chamber baler, variable round baler and in combination with bale wrapper, each as a MASTER or PRO version.
The new LIFTUP technology enables a natural flow of crop, so that the forage enters the bale chamber tangentially (at an ideal angle). The result is a high intake capacity that translates into high baling performance with very low disintegration losses. In addition, the bale chamber is fed more uniformly across the whole width. On the one hand, this greatly reduces any left/right steering correction needed to produce perfectly shaped bales. On the other hand, the bale always starts formation in any situation. Quite simply. Ready for any application. Regardless of whether in wet or dry conditions, whether for straw, hay or silage - here is one machine for all operating situations.
The "FLEXCUT 32" short chop system on the IMPRESS with up to 32 TWINBLADE reversible knives and proven individual knife protection system ensures the very best forage quality: 36 mm theoretical chopped length across the entire width. That is unique. Assisted by the patented knife group switching system, the desired number of knives to be used can be selected flexibly. No dummy knives are required because the knives that are not in use cover the knife slots and the gaps between the knives. The shorter chop length enables higher compression of the crop and thus higher bale density with all harvest material (silage, hay, straw). This brings about a reduction in transport costs as well as storage costs because smaller storage space and less handling are required. In addition, with silage, the uniformly short chopped length ensures a homogenous structure that requires less intensive mixing when using feed mixing wagons. This has a positive effect on the fermentation stability and as a result on the quality of the forage. When used for straw, short chopped straw for adding to feed and for bedding is available for a minimal extra power requirement. PÖTTINGER, the world leader in loader wagons, has thus managed to integrate loader wagon chop quality into a round baler for the first time. Short chop not just for silage, but also for hay and straw: that is unique on the market. Thanks to the short chop, with straw it is no longer necessary to purchase a cost intensive pre-baling chopper or post-baling shredding system.
The IMPRESS features a swing-out chopping system with the proven EASY MOVE pull-out knife bank. The highest level of convenience is ensured with maintenance taking place at workbench height outside the bale chamber. The higher the number of knives, the more important the ease of maintenance. The PÖTTINGER IMPRESS provides an ingenious and convenient solution.
The perfect flow
The key to the best possible forage quality and to a better round baler is the crop flow. Conventional balers feed the crop under the rotor into the bale chamber. On the PÖTTINGER system, the crop flows over the LIFTUP rotor with its patented spiral configuration of tines to enter the bale chamber tangentially. This method promotes a flow that conserves the crop with very low disintegration losses. PÖTTINGER's solution for the best forage quality is the perfect flow.
