Would it not be desirable to incorporate the features of a large square baler into your small square baler? Well, the wait is over. Massey Ferguson has released its much-anticipated small square baler upgrade on its 1800 Series. It is called SimplEbale and it provides you with the opportunity to be more precise with your small square baler. How precise are we talking? “You are going to get those large square baler features like bale length, flake count, density control from the cab, moisture sensor compatibility—all those different things that you see in a large square baler or a round baler, now finally in that small square package,” Luke Weller, SimplEbale Engineering Manager, told Farms.com Precision Ag Digital Digest. Massey Ferguson launched this product on its 1840 and 1844S balers. The base package includes all components, sensors and harnessing needed. You can expect improved bale consistency and increased operational efficiency from this system. The best part is this is a retrofittable system. “You can put one on a brand-new baler or you could put this on even a much older baler with just a little bit ingenuity,” adds Weller. “SimplEbale is that simple. We called it SimplEbale for a reason.” Weller says that there are three things you need to remember with this system: operator efficiency, increase bail formation and increase service and reliability. All features are adjustable in the cab via the monitor, giving you full control in real-time. And since the kit is modular, you can select the options you need with minimal modifications on your actual machine. “The monitor does it all and you can update [it] with your phone,” adds Weller. “We’ve given that back to people so that they can really maximize when they want to be in the field.” There are several optional features as well, including LED lights and a bale scale. Whether you are skilled or an inexperienced operator, SimplEbale provides more control, better monitoring, and real-time feedback in the cab.
