2020 Kuhn North America SW 14 Series 1614 M

The KUHN SW 14 Series bale wrappers can wrap large square bales or round bales for maximum versatility. Mounted or trailed models are available, and can be manually or computer controlled, to best meet your operation’s needs.

KUHN SW 14 Series bale wrappers can wrap large square bales, 2x3 or 3x3 (80x60-90 cm), up to 6’ (180 cm) in length, and round bales up to 5’ (150 cm) in diameter. KUHN wrappers rotate bales evenly for exact film overlap, and consistently and tightly wrapped bales. Choose from two different control systems, manual or computer controlled, to best suit your personal preference. The pre-stretchers, film cutters, wrapping table and low-profile chassis design make KUHN bale wrappers simple, easy-to-use, fast and efficient. KUHN bale wrappers, designed with you in mind, provide reliable performance to ensure optimum forage quality throughout the storage period.

The KUHN SW 1114 is a 3-point mounted, quick-hitch compatible model ideal for “wrap and stack” operations in the field or in the yard. Wrapping at the storage site means less risk of film damage and can be done by a one-man operation. The wrapper can be operated from a loader while using a power pack or second tractor for the oil- and power supply due to the standard RF remote control.

The KUHN SW 1614 is a trailed, self-loading bale wrapper suited perfectly for operations where high capacity and high efficiency are required. The automatic parallel loading arm, with standard round bale kit, ensures gentle, on-the-move bale loading in all weather conditions. Due to its unique low-profile chassis design with wide track wheels a second bale can be carried during wrapping to increase overall efficiency.

Square Turntable

The KUHN large square bale turntable wrappers are equipped with two pairs of steel rollers, with a ribbed profile, This design creates a deep and stable cradle for the bale, ensuring maximum bale traction, even bale rotation and proper film overlap, whatever the bale size. Two large bale support rollers provide additional stability and guidance. Round bales can also be wrapped with these wrappers.

The standard pre-stretchers, which hold a 30” (750 mm) roll, are made of aluminum to avoid build-up of tack from the film. Both outer ends of the aluminum rollers are cone-shaped to maintain the optimum width of the film and reduce the risk of film tear. The special ribbed profile of the aluminum rollers keeps air and water away from the film. The location of the pre-stretchers makes it very easy to change the film rolls. The standard pre-stretch of 70% is reached by a low-maintenance and low-noise gear transmission.

Once the desired number of film layers have been applied, the film is then held firmly and cut. A hydraulic, high-grip film cutter allows you to adjust the cutting moment independent of the table tipping position, resulting in the shortest possible end string. It has a long stroke to help accommodate various bale lengths, and ensures a firm hold and a clean cut of the film in various weather conditions.
