Seemingly bulky Silage Baling Press contains ingenious mechanical and hydraulic technology. Its working principle essentially mimics and amplifies human actions of “compacting” and “binding,” but its efficiency and power far surpass human capabilities. The entire process can be clearly divided into four stages: feeding, compression, baling, and ejection.
First, the cut and dried alfalfa hay is evenly fed into the baler’s “belly”—the compression chamber—either by a conveyor or manually. This is the starting point of the baling process; the evenness of feeding directly affects the quality of the final bale. Then, the machine’s core component begins its work: hydraulically driven pistons or pressure plates repeatedly compress the hay within the chamber with immense pressure, sometimes reaching tens or even hundreds of tons. During this process, air between the hay cells is forcefully expelled, and the volume is compressed to a fraction of its original size, becoming exceptionally dense.
When the hay is compressed to the predetermined density, the machine automatically enters the baling stage. At this point, a needle-threading device carries sturdy binding rope or wire, precisely threading it through the highly compressed hay bale to perform horizontal or vertical binding. Different models of balers may use hemp rope, plastic rope, or wire, and tie a specific number of knots to ensure the bales don’t unravel during subsequent handling and stacking.
Finally, the rear door of the compression chamber opens, and the formed, square or round, tightly packed bales are smoothly pushed out, either rolling or transported by conveyor belt to the designated location. The entire process can be completed from the operator’s cab via an electronic control system, achieving a high degree of automation and significantly reducing the operator’s workload. Understanding its working principle helps users better operate and maintain the equipment, maximizing its efficiency.
