The Vicon pre-stretcher
Vicon pre-stretchers provide even film stretch throughout the roll,
are easy to operate and require low maintenance.
The unique pre-stretch roller profile keeps the stretched film at its
optimum width and results in fewer problems with film tear. The
rollers are made of aluminum which avoids the build-up of tack from
the film, which can result in overstretch of film and film tear. A
special pattern keeps air and water away as the film is being
stretched.Easy change of
film rolls
Change of film roll is quick and easy with Vicon pre-stretchers. The
empty core is released by pushing the upper handle sideways and up,
all in one movement. Locate the new film roll, flick the handle back
in position, and the roll is instantly locked. The pre-stretch rollers
are kept clear during loading by an easy-to operate lock that
automatically releases simply by pushing the lower handle after film
roll exchange. Low lifting height of the film rolls is achieved thanks
to the low profile design of all Vicon balewrappers.
Wrapping table with large
widely spaced rollers
The table is fitted with four endless belts for gentle bale
handling even of loose or awkward shaped bales. The two big diameter
widely spaced rollers bring the bale deep into the table providing a
large contact area on the bale. This ensures even bale rotation for
maximum film overlap accuracy and reduces the chances of loose bales
breaking up or misshapen bales falling off the table.
Easy and gentle bale handling
With their ingenious low profile design, Vicon bale wrappers avoid the
use of unnecessary steel and heavy counter weights, making the design
slimmer and lighter - without sacrificing strength! The lower weight
reduces soil compaction, which can affect crop yields.
