CONSISTENCY Perfect shaped, consistent round bales are the end-result which every customer is looking for. With over 30 years of experience in baling, our machines can produce exceptional high bale densities even in the most demanding conditions.
RELIABILITY To achieve maximum efficiency of your machine, an unmatched reliability is a must. DEUTZ-FAHR offers the most efficient and versatile range of balers available on the market designed with simple, but efficient techniques. This results in a minimum in down time and a machine that you can trust.
4-5 CROP INTAKE
CROP INTAKE DIFFERENT INTAKE SYSTEMS
CONSISTENT BALE SHAPE THE IMPORTANCE OF BALE SHAPE Consistent shaped bales bring more than just aesthetic appeal. A consistent filled bale represents quality in every form. Perfect firm round bales have less air in the bale, resulting in high quality feed!
OPTIMAL INTAKE PERFORMANCE Both OptiFeed and OptiCut models feature a cam-track pickup unit. The cam-track pick-up unit is designed to match the full capacity of the machine. The 230 cm wide pick-up delivers maximum ground adaption by its pendulum capabilities for optimal crop intake. The machine is capable of working in all swaths and will not let you down, even in the harshest conditions. The 5 tine rows and short crop roller ensure a fluent and clean raking job, even at high forward speed. To adapt the machine to your purposes, you have the choice between fixed and pivoting pick-up wheels.
INTEGRAL ROTOR - CROP CUTTING QUALITY The balers are equipped with the patented* Integral Rotor Technology with double tines made out of Hardox wear plates. Hardox combines extreme hardness and toughness with minimum wear of the rotor tines. The simple, maintenance free, short distance intake system guarantees an enormous throughput capacity at all times regardless of the various (crop) conditions. The short distance between rotor and pickup gives an outstanding crop flow. This force-fed intake makes higher forward speeds possible for outstanding productivity and reduced crop damage.
* Patent or patent pending in one or more countries
6-7 INTAKE SYSTEMS
When cutting the crop is not required, the OptiFeed intake system ensures a controlled and consistent crop flow to the bale chamber. (availability dependent on FM model)
OPTIFEED ROTOR The OPTIFEED rotor with double feeding tines, made out of Hardox wear plates, and integrated augers, provide a consistent flow of crop into the bale chamber. This rotor design helps even out windrows by moving them where needed for consistent bales every time.
CROP INTAKE NON-CUTTING VERSION
The DEUTZ-FAHR OC cutting systems are designed for unlimited intake capacity and excellent cutting quality. They are acknowledged by users as one of the best cutting systems on the market. The silage is guided and drawn to the knives in an early stage which improves flow and cutting performance and also prevents unwanted blockage. There are two different types of DEUTZ-FAHR OC cutting systems. (availability dependent on FM model)
CROP INTAKE CUTTING VERSION OPTICUT 14 The 14-knife OPTICUT cutting system provides a theoretical cutting length of 70 mm. Each single knife is spring protected against damage from foreign objects. The FM 335 & FM 335 BP offer group selection on the OptiCut 14, with the choice between 0, 4, 7, 7, or 14 knives in operation.
GROUP SELECTION
OPTICUT 23 (available for FM 335 & FM 335 BP) The Integral Rotor with the 23-knife OPTICUT system from DEUTZ-FAHR has the benefits of intensive cutting with a theoretical cutting length of 45 mm. Each single knife is spring protected against damage from foreign objects. With group selection the operator can choose to have 0, 7, 11, 12, or 23 knives in operation.

ROTOR DISENGAGEMENT In extreme circumstances double security is provided by a standard hydraulic rotor disengagement clutch. The rotor drive can be hydraulically disengaged from the bale chamber drive, enabling the binding and discharge of the bale from the chamber. ROTOR DISENGAGEMENT
10-11 BALE CHAMBER
PERFECT BALE FORMATION
Producing many silage, hay and straw bales each season requires expert engineering of the machine. To compress the crop into bales with a consistent size and density, the baling process has to be as effective as possible while being gentle on the crop.
BALE CHAMBER The redesigned heart of the FM 330/335 balers consists of 18 PowerTrack rollers. The 18 renewed power track rollers have symmetrical profiles which generate exceptionally high density and reliable bale rotation in all crop conditions. All rollers are made of 3,2 mm thick high-strength steel which are roll-formed and laser-welded on one side for optimal durability. In addition, a minimum of space between the rollers reduces crop loss.
FAST TAILGATE DETECTION Strong tail-gate hydraulic cylinders in combination with a hydraulic lock ensures consistently sized bales with maximum bale density (Power Lock). A highly accurate tailgate sensor monitors the bale growth as from 80% to allow the driver to optimize the bale shape and density. The tailgate of FM 330/335 opens and closes in up to 4,5 seconds for maximum output, thanks to its stable design with torsion pipes.
POWERTRACK ROLLER
BUILT TO LAST HIGHEST DENSITY AND IMPROVED LIFETIME The rugged driveline with new gearbox design consists of a split driveline. The bale chamber drive on one side and rotor plus pick-up drive on the other ensuring a smooth operation and an even power transfer. The main drive and bale roller chains are made up of high-strength 100H (1Âź) chains which contribute to an improved life time. In addition to the 50 mm double raced bearings on the drive side main load points, trouble free baling in heavy conditions is guaranteed. All bearings have central greasing, a Beka Max automatic bearing greasing system is optional. The rollers have built in scrapers to push the material out and away from the bearings. BUILT IN SCRAPERS
All models are equipped as standard with a Beka Max continuous chain oiling system with sturdy and wide oil brushes on the chains to ensure perfect lubrication.
STURDY AND WIDE OIL BRUSHES
12-13 BALE SHAPE
The binding cycle is crucial during baling. Less time required for binding means a higher output. On the DEUTZ-FAHR Balers the binding is placed at the front of the machine, resulting in a perfect view on the binding process from the tractor seat. To optimize this process, main adjustments can be done via the terminal.
FIRM BALE SHAPE OPTIMUM TYING PERFORMANCE
NET BINDING The net binder with active stretch technology assures a firm bale shape with constant high net tension throughout the entire binding cycle. The net is fed into the front of the bale chamber to secure an even and direct start. A second net roll storage guarantees sufficient net supply for a long working day. Changing the net roll can easily be done standing safely on the large platform.
DEUTZ-FAHR’s innovative design allows constant tension to the net during the binding process. The net wrap system runs at 90% of the bale’s rotational speed, to be able to stretch the net instead of braking. This provides an exact net tension in all crop and weather conditions. After leaving the bale chamber the bale will not expand and therefore holds its density. The net binding system provides excellent net spreading, even beyond the bale shoulders to prevent air pockets and improve the silage quality. The net stretch can simply be adjusted via the variable pulley and the number of net wraps can be adjusted from the terminal.
TWINE BINDING By use of the double twine binding system the binding cycle time is reduced to a minimum. In the twine binding cycle both of the twines start at the bale edge and overlap itself before moving to the centre of the bale. In the centre of the bale they overlap again, this ensures the twines are fixed and there are no loose ends. When required, the FM and FM BP can be equipped with an optional twine binding device.

14-15 BALING AND WRAPPING
BALING AND WRAPPING
A ONE-MAN OPERATION Two technologies from DEUTZ-FAHR combined in one machine, the FM BalePack. This easy to use machine is capable of working on even the steepest slopes and in all crop conditions. The DEUTZ-FAHR FM BalePack has a high capacity due to a fast and reliable bale transfer, high-speed twin-satellite wrapping unit and IntelliWrap.
FAST AND RELIABLE BALE TRANSFER To minimize idle time and maximize output, a rapid bale transfer is required. The side guide protection plates on the FM 335 BalePack ensure a rapid and secure bale transfer even when working in steep or sloping fields. The 4-belt wrapping table with 2 large rollers and 4 side cones provide maximum bale traction, even bale rotation and proper film overlap, regardless of the bale shape. The improved “twin loading fork� system offers faster bale transfer of up to 30%.
The first loading fork (in red) collects the bale as it leaves the bale chamber. The wrapping table is tilted forward; ready to receive the bale. Advantage: There is no possibility for the bale to roll off the rear of the wrapping table when facing up a steep slope. The second loading fork (in blue) transfers the bale onto the wrapping table. The tailgate shuts automatically, with the second loading fork still in raised position. Advantage: This saves time and also prevents any chance off the bale rolling forward into the tailgate when facing downhill. The wrapping table returns to its horizontal position and the second loading fork is lowered. The bale lies on the wrapping table supported by four wide belts and four lateral guide rollers. Advantage: Regardless of the bale shape, the table offers good support and allows perfect wrapping. The IntelliWrap wrapping system with closely mounted pre-stretchers rapidly wraps the bale, either in conventional or (optional) 3D mode. Advantage: Vertically mounted pre-stretch units ensure no grass is sprinkled between the layers of film during the wrapping process. This results in effective sealing between film layers and the highest possible silage quality. The low mounted table allows the wrapped bale to be gently discharged while driving, either automatically or manually.
16-17 INTELLIWRAP
INTELLIWRAP EXCELLENT WRAPPING
Greater management and control of the wrapping process is achieved by our unique IntelliWrap system. IntelliWrap uses sophisticated electronics and hydraulics to monitor the wrapping process and continuously controls the film overlap, allowing total flexibility. Depending on local circumstances, crop conditions and storage periods the amount of film layers (4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9...) can simply be adjusted.
SELECTION OF 5 FILM LAYERS
THE BALE IS COVERED WITH 3 LAYERS INCREASING OF THE BALE ROTATION AND 67% OVERLAP SPEED
FINAL 2 LAYERS WITH 50% OVERLAP
Another feature of IntelliWrap is 3D wrapping. 3D wrapping is an intelligent and innovative way of applying stretch film to round bales. Key to the 3D wrapping process is its ability to distribute the total film quantity more uniformly and efficiently across the entire surface of the bale. By wrapping the cylindrical surface of the bale first more air is excluded and the bale shape maintained, even after long storage periods. The vulnerable bale shoulders are better protected compared to conventional wrapped bales. IntelliWrap provides well-shaped, tightly sealed bales and therefore higher quality silage.
ELECTRONICS ALWAYS IN CONTROL The DEUTZ-FAHR FM 330 is controlled by the AT 10 control box which provides clear and easy to read information. The DEUTZ-FAHR FM 335 and FM 335 BP offer additional comfort with ISOBUS compatibility. ISOBUS compatible tractors will not require a separate control box for these balers. Alternatively, the VT50 or CCI 200 monitor can be used with tractors that are not ISOBUS compatible. All balers offer clear operator settings, such as amount of net layers, automatic/manual binding start and selectable wrapping programs*. Operator information, such as fast bale growth detection (as from 80%) and bale counters (cut/uncut/ meters of net used) are also provided. The ISOBUS controlled FM 335 and FM 335 BP provide additional driver comfort such as adjusting the bale density from the comfort of the cab. The knives can independently be controlled from the dropfloor. *only FM 335 BP
AT 10 - FM 330

OUR CORE VALUES: CAPACITY Our goal is to develop machines that will give a boost to the profitability of your company. High output is a key success factor for every baler. DEUTZ-FAHR balers feature several unique points that will deliver this capacity to your company.
ROUND BALES Perfect shaped, consistent round bales are the end-result which every customer is looking for. With over 30 years of experience in baling, our machines can produce these rock-hard bales.
RELIABILITY To achieve maximum efficiency of your machine, an unmatched reliability is a must. The DEUTZ-FAHR round balers are designed with simple, but efficient techniques. This results in a minimum in down time and a machine that you can trust.
4-5 PROGRESSIVE DENSITY
THE IMPORTANCE OF BALE SHAPE Consistent shaped bales bring more than just aesthetic appeal. A consistent filled bale represents quality in every form. Perfect firm round bales have less air in the bale, resulting in high quality feed!
PROGRESSIVE DENSITY –THE DEUTZ-FAHR SOLUTION The PROGRESSIVE DENSITY system has proven its value on all DEUTZ-FAHR VM balers. The system increases tension as the bale grows providing a firm bale with a tough outer shell.
HOW DOES IT WORK? As the bale grows within the bale chamber, the belt tensioning arm is subjected to steadily increasing resistance from two hydraulic cylinders and a spring tensioner. So as the diameter increases, the bale’s density does too. The result is a very firm bale with a moderate core – not too soft, not too hard. With a tougher outer layer, straw bales will be more tolerant to bad weather conditions, while silage bales will maintain their shape for improved stacking and easier handling.
CONSISTENT BALE SHAPE
CROP INTAKE DIFFERENT INTAKE SYSTEMS OPTIMAL CROP INTAKE All VM 600 models feature a cam-track pick-up unit. The camtrack pick-up unit is designed to match the full capacity of the machine. With an intake width of 230 cm, the machine is capable of working in all swaths and will not let you down, even in the harshest conditions. The new OptiFlow open throat models are equipped with an unrestricted 210 cm wide intake unit. The driven bottom and top roller combination brings maximum thrust to the crop flow for full capacity. To adapt the machine to your purposes, you have the choice between fixed and pivoting pick-up wheels.
INTEGRAL ROTOR - CROP FLOW CONTROL All VM balers, except balers with OptiFlow, are equipped with the patented* Integral Rotor Technology. With the exception of the VM 655-685, all Integral Rotor units are provided with tines made out of Hardox wear plates. Hardox combines extreme hardness and toughness with minimum wear of rotor tines. The simple, maintenance free, short distance intake system ensures even feeding regardless of the various (crop) conditions. The short distance between rotor and pick-up yields an outstanding crop flow. This force-fed intake makes higher forward speeds possible for outstanding productivity and reduced crop damage. *Patent or patent pending in one or more countries
6-7 CUTTING VERSIONS
NON CUTTING VERSIONS When cutting the crop is not required, the OptiFlow and OptiFeed intake systems ensure a controlled and consistent crop flow to the bale chamber. (availability dependent on VM model)
OPTIFLOW – OPEN THROAT The OptiFlow open throat intake has an unrestricted intake unit for maximum capacity in all crop conditions. In heavier conditions, like big wide straw or silage windrows, the top roller is acting like a pre compactor which is powered by the primary driveline of the baler. There are no stuffer fingers or rotor tines which can disturb the flow and therefore limit the intake capacity. This generates a huge input potential and prevents blockages of the unit resulting in a high output and a minimum of downtime.
OPTIFEED ROTOR The OPTIFEED rotor with single feeding tines and integrated augers, provide a consistent flow of crop into the bale chamber. This rotor design helps even out windrows by moving them where needed for consistent bales every time.
CUTTING VERSIONS The OC cutting systems are designed for unlimited intake capacity and excellent cutting quality. There are two different types of DEUTZ-FAHR OC cutting system on the VM 600 series. (availability dependent on VM model)
OPTICUT 14 The Integral Rotor with the 14-knife OPTICUT system is designed to even out the swath and force-feed the crop into the baler for maximum throughput. The 14-knife OPTICUT cutting system provides a theoretical cutting length of 70 mm. Each single knife is spring protected against damage from foreign objects. With group selection the operator can choose to have 0, 4, 7, 7, or 14 knives in operation.
OPTICUT 23 The Integral Rotor with the 23-knife OPTICUT system from DEUTZ-FAHR has the benefits of intensive cutting and mechanical protection. The 23-knife OPTICUT system provides a theoretical cutting length of 45 mm. Each single knife is spring protected against damage from foreign objects. With group selection the operator can choose to have 0, 7, 11, 12, or 23 knives in operation. Mechanical group selection is available on VM 665-695 & BalePack models.

The silage is guided and drawn to the knives in an early stage which improves flow and cutting performance and also prevents unwanted blockage. As a result of the redesigned intake unit the power requirement of the round balers is decreased.
In case of a rotor blockage, the floor and knives can be lowered hydraulically from the tractor cab. After the blockage is cleared, they can easily be brought back into work position.
ROTOR DISENGAGEMENT When dropping of the floor is not sufficient, the rotor drive can manually be disengaged from the bale chamber drive, enabling the binding and discharge of the bale from the chamber. The rotor disengagement and drop floor technology ensure a quick clearance in case of a blockage.
8-9 BALE FORMATION
BALE FORMATION The bale chamber on the VM 600 series exists of 3 bale chamber rollers and 5 belts. The belts and rollers in the bale chamber provide fast, consistent core formation. In this pre-chamber, moderate or soft-cores can be chosen to meet the need of any operation. The redesigned bale chamber is equipped with a new heavier top chamber roller with aggressive profile resulting in less pollution to the front of the machine. The VM 600 series also has a reinforced tail gate bottom roller and top belt guide roller. A large smooth roller with driven cleaning roller in the front segment of the baler prevents crop build up and pollution of the machine. The VM 655 & 685 are provided with a large profiled roller and scraper combination.

The wrapping table returns to its horizontal position and the second loading fork is lowered. The bale lies on the wrapping table supported by four wide belts and four lateral guide rollers. Advantage: Regardless of the bale shape, the table offers good support and allows perfect wrapping. The INTELLIWRAP wrapping system with closely mounted pre-stretchers rapidly wraps the bale, either in conventional or (optional) 3D mode. Advantage: Vertically mounted pre-stretch units ensure no grass is sprinkled between the layers of film during the wrapping process. This results in effective sealing between film layers and the highest possible silage quality. The low mounted table allows the wrapped bale to be gently discharged while driving, either automatically or manually. Advantage: When working on sloping grounds, the wrapped bale can be discharged while the net or twine is being applied on the following bale, saving time and increasing output potential.

BALING AND WRAPPING
Two technologies from DEUTZ-FAHR combined in one machine, the VM BalePack. This easy to use machine is capable of working on even the steepest slopes and in all crop conditions. The DEUTZ-FAHR VM BalePack has a high capacity due to fast and reliable bale transfer, high-speed twin-satellite wrapping unit and IntelliWrap.
EXCELLENT WRAPPING Greater management and control of the wrapping process can be achieved by our unique IntelliWrap. IntelliWrap uses sophisticated electronics and hydraulics to monitor the wrapping process and continuously control the film overlap, allowing total flexibility. Depending on local circumstances, crop conditions and storage periods the amount of film layers (4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9...) can simply be adjusted.

Another feature of INTELLIWRAP is 3D wrapping. 3D wrapping is an intelligent and innovative way of applying stretch film to round bales. Key to the 3D wrapping process is its ability to distribute the total film quantity more uniformly and efficiently across the entire surface of the bale. By wrapping the cylindrical surface of the bale first more air is excluded and the baleshape maintains, even after long storage periods. IntelliWrap provides well-shaped, tightly sealed bales and therefore higher quality silage.

All DEUTZ-FAHR VM 660-690 and VM 665-695 BP balers are ISOBUS compatible. ISOBUS compatible tractors will therefore not require a separate control box for the baler. Alternatively, the VT 50 or CCI 200 monitor can be used with tractors that are not ISOBUS compatible. Operator settings, such as bale diameter and knife activation, are accessed via the monitor. Operator warnings, such as left – right indicator, max bale size and operator information, including number of bales, are also provided.
AT 10 - NON ISOBUS COMPATIBLE* The in-cab control box provides clear and easy to read information and gives full command of the baling and binding process. An audible and visual alarm signals when the bale is ready. A choice of automatic or manual start of the tying process can be preselected. Adjustments like the number of netwraps are easily controlled from the tractor seat. AT 10 also provides a daily and total bale counter. * Standard on VM 655-685
VT 50** The DEUTZ-FAHR ISOBUS VT 50 terminal has a 14.5 cm (5.7”) color screen with outstanding clarity. Adjustments can easily be done by the touch screen and the large soft-touch keys on the sides. The VT 50 terminal can be used exclusively with the DEUTZ-FAHR ISOBUS machines.
CCI 200** The ISOBUS compatible CCI 200 terminal has a large 21.6 cm (8.5”) color screen with outstanding clarity. Baling adjustments can be easily made via the touch screen or by use of the intuitive, large, soft-touch keys. The CCI 200 terminal can also be used with many other ISOBUS compatible machines on the market. ** Compulsory choice
FULL VISIBILITY To provide optimal visibility and safety around the machine, the VM / VM BP can be equipped with a DEUTZ-FAHR camera system. There are 2 versions available, one version is compatible with the CCI terminal, the other one consist of a separate monitor and a camera.
