FENDT rectangular balers

Professional Fendt Rectangular balers Manufactured in the USA. Rectangular balers have earned a great reputation for their robust and long-lasting construction, and high power. When developing the new generation of rectangular balers, special attention was paid to improving these positive qualities, optimising technological processes, and simplifying maintenance.

The updated range of rectangular balers combines all these requirements and adapts perfectly to Fendt Vario tractors, assessed by their construction and technical characteristics. The balers form excellent rectangular bales – a high density and low air content within the bale is achieved.

Rectangular balers

• Available are seven large square balers: 870, 990, 1270, 1290, 1290 XD, 12130 and the latest model Fendt Squadra 1290 UD. The maintenance and operation of updated baler presses are now even easier, with a higher level of reliability.
• They are available with single-axle and tandem-axle chassis, with and without a shredder unit. The reinforced tandem-axle chassis ensures press stability and work quality even under difficult operating conditions. In addition, due to the stronger tandem axle, larger tyres (620/40-22.5) can be used, which have a larger ground contact area.
• On uneven or hilly surfaces, HD discs ensure excellent ground following and uniform mass collection.
• Additional centre screws ensure uniform intake and a firm bale shape. For best results when chopping straw or silage, the 1270, 1290, 1290 XD and 12130 models feature a chopping unit with 19 knives, while the 870 and 990 models have 11 knives. The cut length is 48 mm.
• Rectangular balers have a wide, 2.26 m wide drum finger pick-up. The distance between the pick-up fingers is 66 mm.
• The standardised ISOBUS data transfer protocol is available on all Fendt rectangular balers.
• Rectangular balers can be operated from the tractor cab via a 10.4“ diagonal control terminal. Varioterminal. The new software allows all important information to be viewed on a single control terminal screen.
• Fendt Varioterminal allows a larger mass to be supplied and a higher compression ratio. As a result Fendt 1290 XD larger volume and mass bundles (120 x 90 cm).
• In all Fendt square balers, the electronic bale length adjustment function can also be selected as an option. This allows the bale length to be adjusted independently of Varioterminal control terminal settings. The main advantage of this function is reduced time expenditure, for example, when the baler is used on several farms where bales of different sizes are pressed.
• The piers have excellent lighting in the dark, so maintenance and service work can be carried out at night without any restrictions.
• Easy Fill The system of rectangular balers allows for up to 30 spare twine coils.
• Automatic chain lubrication: what previously had to be done manually is now carried out by an automatic lubrication system. This is a convenient tool that increases machine reliability and saves time.

Fendt Squadra 1290 UD:

This large square baler guarantees exceptional bale density and high quality. Its exterior design presents a new look concept for Fendt large square balers. This powerful and robust, yet lightweight and compact baler, manufactured at the AGCO factory in Hestone (USA), boasts an innovative overall design, reliability, and maximum durability, based on decades of equipment refinement.

A new generation and pushing boundaries

• With this top-of-the-range model, Squad 1290 UD, Fendt promises to open new roads. The car is equipped with an innovative Ultra™ gearbox, also 6 double stitching mechanisms along with a new generation of shuttle.
• Washing machine

6,000 × 12 units = 72,000

5,000 × 12 nodes = 60,000 = 16.5% fewer nodes.

• In order to meet changing customer needs and make long transport routes profitable, Fendt Squadra 1290 UD It is designed to bale bales weighing 20% more than existing large-bale balers. This allows for the loading of heavier and denser bales, as well as making the best use of transport and storage capacity.
• Bonds

3000 tonnes of straw = 3,000,000 kg

• If XD @ 500 kg/bundle = 6000 bundles
• If UD @ 600 kg/bundle = 5000 bundles
• UD = 16.6% fewer bundles
• The newly developed Ultra Density (UD) main drive and innovative driveline construction help to compact the maximum possible material in the bale and create more efficient power transmission. This extremely powerful combination, with an outstanding compaction force of 760 kN, guarantees straw bale densities of up to 245 kg/m³.
• Bundles snagged due to overload clutches are a problem of the past.
• Although lighter than Fendt 1290 XD New square baler flywheel Fendt Squadra A 500 kg smagratis has significantly more power.
• The speed of the tractor’s power take-off (PTO) increases from 1,000 rpm to 1,500 rpm due to the higher-ratio gearbox of the baler. This increase in the 50% ensures greater flywheel energy in the 130% compared to the current model Fendt Square bale press.
• In conclusion:
  • 20%: higher bale pressing capacity
  • 20%: higher bundle weight
  • 20%: a stronger split
  • 5% fewer nodes
  • 5% fewer bundles to process
  • 5% requires less storage space
  • 5% less loading work
