BW5500 Bale Wrapper

This BW5500 inline bale wrapper from Vermeer is designed to give large-volume hay operators and custom operators fast wrapping times and more operational control. The three plastic film pre-stretchers on the BW5500 help increase wrapping speed over machines with only two pre-stretchers. A digital controller allows the operator to apply a consistent number of wraps on bales with automation that consistently adjusts the wrap settings for environmental variations.

Features:

•  User-friendly, easy-to-read precision controller: The user-friendly and easy-to-read precision controller offers the ability to set a consistent number of wraps for each bale to receive. The controller adjusts hydraulic flow automatically to apply the right amount of wraps.
•  Three pre-stretchers: Contains three 30-inch (76.2-cm) pre-stretchers to wrap faster and increases the time before plastic film refill is needed compared to a machine with only two pre-stretchers.
•  Soft start feature: The soft start feature is designed to reduce machine wear and limit the chance of plastic film tearing on startup, making your operation more efficient.
•  Optional remote control: The optional remote control allows you to start, steer and stop the wrapper from the seat of a tractor or skid steer loader. This provides more operational control and can help increase efficiency while loading bales onto the wrapper.
•  Power drive not required: Positioning the hitch on the BW5500 from the loading end allows you to pull the machine away from the line of bales without requiring a power drive on the bale wrapper.
