PROCESS this way

The BP 660 Bale Pro® is a great option for cattle operations looking for a durable, well-engineered bale processor. The BP 660 Bale Pro® has a dual feed roller processing chamber with a centrally driven flail drum.

The Highline® flails efficiently bite into the bale for uniform feed processing. The flails are optimally sized to grab the bale.

The new stepped shaft design is machined from a single length of material vastly improving strength and durability of the drum.

The flails are designed in a spiral formation. This spiral formation ensures that the bale is continuously pulled and processed resulting in consistent feed. Also, the flail drum is digitally balanced for smooth performance and long bearing life.

The Feed Chopper™, exclusively from Highline®, is a secondary processing option to create shorter cut lengths. Rather than stationary knives that pulverize or drag leaves off of stems, the Highline® Feed Chopper™ truly slices through the hay creating an optimal consistency. The Feed Chopper™ is a great alternative to tub grinders.

• Improves Whole Plant Intake - Chopping reduces particle size of the whole plant improving intake of the stem portion. This is the part cows and sheep sort against. The efficiency of forage utilization improves, reducing the amount of forages for winter feeding the herd.

• Reduces Waste While Increasing Palatability - Cattle have preferences in what they eat. For example, longer coarse feed and low quality hay may have adequate nutritional value, but are not eaten, creating feed waste. By chopping low quality hay, intake of feed is increased, cattle will clean up the windrow or feed bunks.

• Controlling Rations - It is vital to ensure that the amount of grain added into a ration is controlled. The amount of grain components in the ration needs to match up with the rumen’s ability to utilize the grains. Increasing the grain components too quickly can result in acidosis and the animals going off feed. The Highline® hydraulic drive feed system precisely distributes the grain or pellets into the hay or straw windrow. The hydraulic drive feed system now allows for stationary processing with precise grain addition – perfect for pre-processing for wagon or mixer feeding!

Features may include:

• The singular, flat smooth top allows for easy cleaning. The magnetic curtain retainers break free when obstructed.

• Standard on all models.

• For better material containment.

• Contoured to match large bale profiles for improved flail engagement.

• Keep hoses protected and out of the mud! Quickly hook up to the tractor with the hoses now located conveniently beside the tractor remotes. The hose holder locks out of the way during hook up or for shipping.

• Reduces pressure spikes increasing the motor life and durability.

• Fork length of 67 ½” (1.71 m) for full bale engagement.

• Lift bales from the smallest silage up to 6' (1.83 m). Lift from the row and load them into the Bale Pro®

• For improved positioning when loading the second bale.
