THE MOST ADVANCED INTEGRATED BALER WRAPPER RANGE

The McHale Fusion range has been developed with a focus on operator comfort and machine performance, while still ensuring the renowned simplicity and reliability is maintained. Our specialist team of engineers have maximised machine intake and output, increased bale density and reduced maintenance intervals to ensure the Fusion range of machines surpasses all your baling and wrapping expectations.

These levels of comfort, when paired with proven features such as the patented bale transfer system and the vertical wrapping ring, enable the McHale Fusion range of machines to offer durability, reliability and high output to the end user.

Overview

The MCHALE FUSION VARIO PLUS is a fully automatic integrated baler wrapper which can apply film or net wrap to the barrel of the bale, delivering optimum bale shape and bale density. The Vario Plus can provide high quality fodder through the use of the film binding system, resulting in better quality silage and easier feed out. This machine provides a number of benefits as the task of baling and wrapping can be carried out using one machine. There is also a labor saving, as one operator, one tractor and one machine can complete baling and wrapping duties. 

The McHale Fusion Vario Plus also has the ability to make bales of hay and straw from 0.6m to 1.68m (2’–5’6″) but in haylage or silage, it produces bales from 1m to 1.45m (3 ‘ 3 “–4 ‘8 “) to allow for wrapping.

It features two unique patents; a patented bale transfer system and a patented vertical wrapping ring. The machine is ISOBUS compatible and can be operated through the tractor terminal or ISO-Play 7 or 12 terminal.

Film Binding

The concept of putting film on the barrel of the bale is known as “Film Binding Technology.” The plastic, which is applied to the barrel of the bale forms an additional layer of wrap across the largest surface of the bale, whilst also binding the bale together.

The film which is applied to the barrel of the bale can be stretched according to the manufacturers recommendations which is a higher ratio than can be achieved with net wrap. This additional layer of film on the barrel of the bale provides higher quality silage as the film can be stretched more than net. This in turn, expels more air, resulting in better silage quality.

By using film to bind the bale together, removal and recycling of the film is made easier as the farmer is only left with one form of waste to recycle and can avoid the unpleasant and time consuming job of separating net from the plastic.

Patented Bale Transfer

When the bale is bound in the bale chamber, the bale chamber splits horizontally. As the top section of the bale chamber moves up, the lower section of the bale chamber simultaneously moves up and out, transferring the bale onto the wrapping platform.

Control Terminals

The McHale Fusion Vario Plus is fitted with ISOBUS as standard. For customers without an ISOBUS tractor, an optional ISO-PLAY 7 or ISO-PLAY 12 terminal can be used. Through the ISOBUS tractor’s terminal or McHale’s ISO-PLAY terminals, the operator is provided with clear indicators of machine performance and allows for increased levels of monitoring, through the graphic display.

Wrapping System In normal working conditions, the ever-efficient wrapping process is always completed ahead of the baler, meaning that the wrapping platform is always ready and waiting to receive the next bale.	Adaptive Intake Over the course of a baling season, machines have to work with different volumes of crop. The McHale patented adaptive intake allows the intake area to automatically adjust for light and heavy crops to facilitate a smooth crop flow into the chamber.

Profi-Flo Pick-Up McHale have created their highest output pick-up for the Fusion range. The new Profi-Flo pick-up has been designed to increase crop intake through more efficient crop flow and has been engineered to ensure end users are operating with a high-performance pick-up that is designed to suit various working conditions.	Pick-Up Over the last decade, McHale has designed and developed various types of pick-ups. After extensive testing, McHale decided it will offer customers the choice of 2 pick-up options depending on their working conditions:
