F8 Bale
Accumulator System
The F8 hay bale accumulator system from Norden is a no-frills and efficient option for many farmers. Whether it is upgrading from a different accumulator that uses hydraulics to needing to fit a small loader, this system provides a solution to small acreage operators. We recommend this system for operations that produce between 5,000 and 12,000 bales per year.
Square Bale Accumulator System For 8 Bales Flat
Straight Chute
The straight chute allowed each bale to stay flat on its strings, while the baler provides the force needed to push the bales to the top of the chute.
Stainless Steel Deck
The stainless steel deck provides a better surface for the bales to slide in higher dirt and moisture conditions.
Gravity-Driven Gates and Final Bale Lever
As gravity moves the bales downward, the last bale in each row swings a gate to open the next row. The last bale in the grab opens the back gate.
Automatic Lift Gate
The last bale in the grab opens the back gate. As the accumulator unloads itself, springs automatically return all the gates back to their starting position, and the rear gate snaps back shut, ready for the next bale.
CORNERING GUIDE BELT
Sharp turns are no problem as the guide belt keeps bales properly aligned and moving up the chute.
