ELHO Silo-matic 420
The ELHO Silo-matic 420 is a range of three point linkage mounted bale wrappers for the contractor and farmer looking for reliable and efficient wrapping. Chain drive, with two large, anti-slip polymer coated, rollers eliminates the need for potentially troublesome linking belts. The freewheel in the drive line ensures smooth offloading and so prevents film damage.
The 420 standard model is simply operated via levers to a hydraulic valve block mounted on the machine. The base machine can then be equipped with hydraulic cut and tie and cable control which enables the wrapper to be controlled from the tractor seat, there are further options giving the ability to monitor the wrapping operation.
 
The in-cab cable control levers have a lock position to allow hands free operation when wrapping and when using the cut and tie functions to improve ease of use. The electronic monitor on the cable controls makes wrapping more accurate and easier. The monitor indicates when the preset number of layers are reached and it also counts the number of bales per field. The monitor is battery powered, so it is independent from the tractor.
The electronic controller for the fully automatic Elho bale wrapper works with sensors and electro-hydraulics to control the whole wrapping process. Even the loading and unloading of bales can be programmed for maximum convenience. All functions can be controlled either manually with a joy stick or via switches. The wrapping table has two sensors, one for the loading position and one for the off loading position. Therefore, the controller can continuously monitor the table position and prevent damage from an interrupted wrapping cycle or incorrect manual operation. The large two row display is easily fine tuned if desired. The controller has a self diagnostic program to check valves, solenoids and sensors from the cab. The models equipped with an infra-red remote control have warning beacons to keep people aware when they are operating.
 
An additional braked third roller on the pre-stretcher follows the surface of the film roll preventing the roll from over running and keeps a constant stretch irrespective of the remaining amount of film left on the roll.
   
To ensure the best grip on the film, the vertical movement of the cut and tie arm will first collect the wide film into a rope before it is clamped and cut off. The stretcher uses metal gears and sealed bearings to guarantee reliability.
