  • Round Baling Hay near New Salem North Dakota | Vermeer ZR5 1200 SP Baler
    In this video I am out in a field north of New Salem North Dakota as this farm round bales hay. In the video the farm is running their Vermeer ZR5 1200 Self Propelled Round Baler and their John Deere 6170 R Tractor pulling a Vermeer 605N round baler. The video has a good mix of drone and on the ground shots and even some bonus footage of two young Red Fox playing around at an old farmstead near the field.

    Great video! I have only seen the self propelled baler in Farming Simulator. Great to see one actually working and to hear why some farmers prefer it over a trailed version. If you have a lot of land to cover it makes sense to me! 👍 Thanks for sharing! 😎

    The problem with regular balers is there's only so much power you can shove through the PTO because of the torque and shear standards. The HD large square balers use the inertia of a flywheel to get more umph into the plunger but the tractor still has to replace that by spinning the flywheel back up. Krone has a design that uses both hydro flow AND PTO to power up a baler with a hydraulic low end booster on the system to get the wheel spinning and keep it from stalling. The old Hesston/Massey units down in the south-west that have on-baler engines are true beasts because of this. Self-powered Freeman 3-string not-so-small balers really hammer out bales too.

    • @boristhebarbarian
      @boristhebarbarian Год назад

      As a non agricultural schooled person; is there a lot of power loss in a PTO? or is there a maximum limit what it can crank out powerwise? Is either of those because there are 2 seperate units in a towed baler versus a selfpropelled unit? Isn't the engine in the selfpropelled ZR5 doing the same thing; powering the vehicle and the baling system just in 1 unit?

      @@boristhebarbarian there’s no inertia issue on a round baler so it’s easy enough driven that issue mentioned above is large square balers due to the working principle.

    • @boristhebarbarian
      @boristhebarbarian Год назад +1

      @@MrT79shakeshake So round balers have a more steady workflow in their workings due to continuous compacting instead of squarebalers push-release (like an automotive engine)methode? Have the squarebalers only been more market dominant because of moving and stacking the bales then?

    My son just purchased a 605N. It was impressive. I was baling wheat and was curious about how fast the baler would bale. I'm baling with a JD 8300. I was up to 12.7 mph and according to the monitor, I was dropping a bale every 55 to 56 seconds. This baler was impressive. I started out with a 605C. I owned a 605G, 605J, 605SuperJ , 605L.

    Be interesting to see if they ever go to 4 wider belts on the chamber the way Deere and agco have gone. They seem to be a big improvement. Also would be interesting to test against a pull type round baler with a true CVT/ hydrostatic type tranny in a 200 plus horse tractor like a JCB with an operator who knows how to run it. Also interesting if Vermeer ever intends to offer a 4 ft wide bale chamber for the self propelled.

    @donmedford2563 Год назад

    The self-propelled unit is a very impressive machine but I have questions. How is it able to operate so much faster than a pull type? You mentioned that it can bail at up to 12mph. How fast can you go when using the pull type? Also how did they make the wrapping/unloading process so much faster? I think the big square bales are more efficient. No need to stop to unload and no wasted space on the truck when hauling them. Are there disadvantages of square bales I do not know about?

    • @quadg5296
      @quadg5296 Год назад +1

      the round bale is the more efficient bale. from a farmers perspective.
      They hold more volume than a similar sized square bale. so you need to create and move fewer per field.
      and they are easier to create from a mechanical perspective. so round balers are smaller, cheaper and cheaper to operate, than the big square balers.
      people tend to make square bales for customers and contracts.
      but round bales to use themselves.
