Case IH introduced the new LB434 x 34 large square baler, designed to help farmers bale more acres per day.

A 31.5-inch longer bale chamber represented a 31 per cent increase in current LB434 balers and can deliver nearly 10 per cent more bale density than previous models.

Representatives from Case say the balers are equipped to accommodate the needs of modern producers.

“Today’s commercial operations must produce dense, perfectly shaped bales,” Cole Carling, Case IH hay and forage marketing manager said in a release.  “Whether transporting down the road or across the globe, importers demand top-quality feed value. Equipped with the latest technology, producers will experience less fatigue, along with greater peace of mind knowing that each bale they produce is consistent in quality, flake size and shape.”

Features of the LB343XL include:

  • A heavy-duty plunger capable of producing dense bales at 48 strokes per minute.
  • A larger platform that makes baler clean-off easier.
  • An extended bale chamber to help bales drop gently with less twine breakage.
  • Color-coded decals to simplify tractor hookup.
  • Clear illumination to key areas including pickup, twine boxes, needles and knotters.
