Features Of The John Deere 569 Round Baler

From MachineFinder Blog         www.machinefinder.com
 
 
The John Deere 569 Round Baler is an ideal machine for operators looking to maximize productivity while baling hay over the course of the workday. With its MegaTooth™ pickup system and B-Wrap™ wrap system, it’s never been easier to handle baling out in the field
 
 
Let’s take a look at some of the key features of the John Deere 569 Round Baler.
 
Vertical Forming Chamber
 
The forming chamber of the John Deere 569 Round Baler has a vertical design. This allows hay to enter the chamber and immediately form a tight, dense core. It’s tightly compressed as it enters the bale.
 
Regular Pickup with Converging Wheels
 
The John Deere 569 has a regular pickup with converging baler wheels. The pickup hugs the ground to ensure clean crop retrieval and minimal hay movement. It can also handle large, heavy windrows of hay and high-moisture crops with ease. Side flares prevent hay from blowing away, which ultimately reduces hay loss.
 
Large Shafts and Bearings
 
The #9 and #11 shafts and bearings on the John Deere 569 Round Baler are larger, which increases their durability over time. These specific shafts and bearings tend to receive the most wear and stress, as they have the majority of contact with the machine’s belts.
 
BaleTrak™ Compatibility
 
The John Deere 569 Round Baler is compatible with the BaleTrak Pro monitor controller. This allows users to monitor bale shape and wrapping with ease. Operators can also adjust wrap settings and bale size with the monitor.
 
XL High Flotation Tires
 
This baler has XL high-flotation tires, which absorb more shock and improve the ride for the operator while the machine is in use. The tires also reduce compaction on soft ground and allow for increased ground speed.
 
Adjustable Hitch
 
The adjustable hitch on the John Deere 569 Round Baler allows operators to match the baler to various tire sizes and allow the pickup head to follow the terrain, minimizing crop loss. The height can also be adjusted to optimize crop-feeding while in use.

Designing a Robotic Berry Picker

Video: Designing a Robotic Berry Picker


Since blackberries must be harvested by hand, the process is time-consuming and labor-intensive. To support a growing blackberry industry in Arkansas, food science associate professor Renee Threlfall is collaborating with mechanical engineering assistant professor Anthony Gunderman to develop a mechanical harvesting system. Most recently, the team designed a device to measure the force needed to pick a blackberry without damaging it. The data from this device will help inform the next stage of development and move the team closer to the goal of a fully autonomous robotic berry picker. The device was developed by Gunderman, with Yue Chen, a former U of A professor now at Georgia Tech, and Jeremy Collins, then a U of A undergraduate engineering student. To determine the force needed to pick blackberries without damage, the engineers worked with Threlfall and Andrea Myers, then a graduate student.
