McHale to unveil recording functions on Fusion 3 plus

For the coming season, McHale has introduced the option of a recording function on the Fusion 3 plus machines to measure some of the different variables of a bale. These options allow the operator to provide a recording of the average bale moisture content and the average bale weight of a job completed for a customer. This information is displayed on the McHale iTouch control console and can also be printed using a receipt printer which is available as an option.

Bale weighing function

As the bale is being tipped, the bale weight is recorded before placing the wrapped bale on the ground. This information can be provided to the customer who can see the average bale weight.

The weight of each bale is accumulated and the average bale weight for the job is displayed in the customer profile section on the iTouch control console and on the job receipt.

The weighing system can be toggled on or off with the push of a button. When the weighing system is deactivated, there is a red ‘X’ displayed across the weighing symbol.

Bale moisture sensor

A bale moisture sensor can be fitted as an option on new McHale Fusion 3 Plus machines.

This sensor is positioned in the side wall of the bale chamber. Once the PTO speed is above 400rpm, a live crop moisture value is displayed on the screen throughout the baling process.

An average moisture content reading of the bale will then be displayed on the iTouch control console. This average value is then accumulated in the on-screen customer profile and on the job receipt.

Printer

A receipt printer can be fitted to the iTouch control consoles on new McHale Fusion 3 Plus machines as an optional extra. This allows the operator to print a detailed receipt outlining the work completed for a specific customer.

Pro Glide B9000 Combination Mower

The McHale Pro Glide B9000 combination mower comes with the option of hydraulic width adjustment. The operator can hydraulically adjust the width position of the rear mowers to eliminate striping on slopes and curves. The hydraulic rams integrated into the mower beams shift the cutter bars sideways either together or independently to allow for up to 400mm overlap on each mower. McHale will be displaying its full range of Pro Glide mowers, Fusion Integrated baler wrappers, fixed and variable chamber balers, twin rotor range of rakes, wrappers and its winter range of equipment.
