Bale Breaker

The bale breaker is designed to break up large bales of haylage, straw and hay. Large bales of Haylage, Hay & Straw type materials are placed onto the walking floor where the material is fed into the chain driven bale breaking system. The material is opened up and fed at an even rate into further processing machinery. This may include for example a shredder for producing straw bedding, a weigh conveyor for Haylage, Hay etc. for packaging into small bales. Further down the process may include de-dusting system, bagging press etc.

Additional KME equipment that can be used in conjunction with the above Bale Breaker :-

• Straw Shredder for producing animal bedding

• De-dusting system for the straw and hay type products

• Haylage baler for 20kg bales

• Weighing conveyor

Features

• Doffer unit to thin out feed of product

• Walking floor suitable to load 3 bales for feeding the spiked belt

• Can be modified to feed existing baler units

• The spiked conveyor is controlled by a Variable speed drive allowing greater product control

The bale breaker works in conjunction with other KME machinery to ensure a complete system for the processing of Haylage, Straw and Hay type products, the bale breaker once loaded with the large bales will open the material automatically. The unit is fully adjustable for the speed / capacity of the product and also how ‘thinned’ out the material is leaving the system.

The bale breaker can also be used for pulling apart other fiberous products and implemented into other agricultural and none agricultural solutions. The KME bale breaker has been used for varying projects across the globe :

Biomass - feeding waste agricultural material to silos and digestors
Textiles - breaking bales of textiles, removing metal contaminants
Cardboard - pulling apart bales of cardboard for reprocessing
Flowers - successfully tested on teasing apart long stemmed flowers for petal removal
