With a combination of simplicity and strength, this innovative machine streamlines the process of cutting and transporting bales, making it a valuable addition to any agricultural operation.
Efficient Bale Splitting
The bale splitter is powered by a single double-acting hydraulic cylinder, featuring a uniquely designed knife that cleanly and quickly splits bales. Here's how it simplifies the process:
1. Bale Transportation
With the knife in the upper position, the bale splitter can spike the bale, securely transporting it from the stacking area to the feeding location. This feature enhances the overall efficiency of your operations.

Upon reaching the feeding area, a single cut from the specially designed knife effortlessly splits the bale into manageable segments. This process ensures that feeding is not only efficient but also minimizes wastage.
3. Bale Transportation After Splitting
The bale splitter's tines can be used to further manage the divided sections, transporting them to different areas in the feedlot. This level of versatility optimizes the organization of your feeding process.
4. Splitting Green Chop
In addition to standard bales, the bale splitter can also be proficient in splitting green chop. This adaptability makes it an invaluable tool in various agricultural scenarios.
5. Splitting Hay or Straw
Whether you are working with hay or straw, the bale splitter delivers consistent and efficient results. This means that you can handle different types of bales with ease, making it a versatile addition to your equipment lineup.
