The answers are always in the numbers and this case is no exception. Get on trend and start analyzing and utilizing all of your vertical balers numbers.


And that is just one aspect of the Smart Baler. Enjoy keyless operation, precise weights and increased safety features. The interface is so easy to use – if you have a smartphone you’re already an expert!
