Buying a Bellima means tapping into KRONE's vast experience and expertise gained in decades of baler manufacturing. Our round balers operate around the world and have proven excellently in a wide variety of conditions. In addition to producing high-density bales, Bellima is extremely robust, simple by design and perfectly specified for great reliability.

• Clean gathering of the material
• Precise working height adjustment
• Continuous crop flow
• Quieter running
• Heavy-duty design

The KRONE round baler Bellima has a compact pick-up. Small in diameter and operating near the bale chamber, the pick-up has four rows of tines and an adjustable crop press roller for high-efficiency operation, feeding even short and wet crops in a consistent flow into the chamber, which is the first step in the production of  uniform bales. The work depth is set by refitting a pin. Contouring is provided by height-adjustable gauge wheels.

With four rows of tines and a tine spacing of 68 mm, the pick-up picks up even short crops cleanly.

The minimum pick-up height on machines without guide wheels is set simply by refitting a bolt at the front.

Bellima F 125 features an adjustable press roller, which ensures a continuous flow of crop into the bale chamber, which is important when picking up large and uneven swaths.

Choice of metal or rubber wheels: The gauge wheels adjust infinitely variably to the desired work depth to assure clean rakes. Pneumatic tyres give excellent and smooth running.

The pick-up has a working width of 1.40 m (4'7") according to DIN 11220, can be operated hydraulically and locked at the desired height. The small space between the pick-up and the bale chamber ensures an optimum crop gathering and a consistent flow of the material into the machine.

• Ideal 1.80 m (5'11") work width for biggest swaths
• Packers ensure a consistent crop flow
• Augers on the sides optimize the material flow
• Pneumatic gauge wheels provide quiet running

The extra wide pick-up with packer is standard specification on Bellima F 130. Arranged close to the tines and to the starter roller inside the bale chamber, the packer tines ensure  a consistent flow of the crop even in short chops, boosting intake capacity and productivity.

Collecting material in awkward fields, curved lines, on slopes and from wide swaths often asks for a wider pick-up with a special crop feeding feature. Offering a working width of as much as 1.80 m (5'11") to DIN 11220, the round baler KRONE Bellima F 130 is the machine to suit.

Feed augers: Massive augers feed the material from the sides to the middle, ensuring a smooth flow from the wide pick-up into the narrow bale chamber.

The standard baffle sheet is adjusted to height by adjusting the chain length. An accurate adjustment is important for loss-free pick-up of short stems.

The working height is continuously adjustable via the guide wheels. On uneven and rutted terrain, the working height can be limited via the lateral perforated bars.

The packer supports the pick-up and improves the crop flow from the pick-up to the starter roller plus ensures the bale chamber is filled uniformly.

• Constant bale diameter of of 1.20 m
• Safe bale drive, no bale stood still, fewer rolling losses
• Low power requirement
• Simple design, only one drive chain

The concept of the slat and chain conveyor has proven extremely well in silage, hay and straw harvesting around the world. The endless slat and chain conveyor forms bales of extremely high densities, exerting a firm grip on the bale and ensuring a constant roll – even in short and dry material. In addition, there are fewer rolling losses and last but not least the low power requirement.

For all types of crop: The chain-and-slat elevator performs most reliably in haylage, straw and hay, meeting all demands our customers make on the machine. By meshing with the material, it ensures effective bale roll and highest densities and still is gentle on the crop.

For all types of crop: The chain-and-slat elevator performs most reliably in haylage, straw and hay, meeting all demands our customers make on the machine. By meshing with the material, it ensures effective bale roll and highest densities and still is gentle on the crop.

The device tensions the slat and chain conveyor automatically with springs ensuring proper chain tension, a longer service life and better safety.

With its grip effect, the slat and chain conveyor ensures effective bale roll and highest baling density.

• Best baling results in hay, straw and haylage
• Effective bale starts with meshing effect

Round balers harvest straw, hay and wilted silage around the world in a wide variety of conditions that require full operational reliability in brittle straw and hay after long periods of drought or varying moisture levels in wilted forage or wet silage altogether, all of which can be aggravated by stickiness in sugary crops.

The drive chains: The chain-and-slat elevator is driven by only one chain, a design that reduces tractor input and makes Bellima even more reliable.

We have nothing to hide. Our Bellima does with a minimum of drive chains and sprockets! The simple and uncluttered design makes for minimum service and maintenance and results in maximum longevity.

The chain-and-slat elevator has proven extremely well in the most versatile conditions around the world. The solid round steel bars and the chains are designed to cope with the highest loads and strains.

The enclosed bale chamber with the endless chain-and-slat elevator on Bellima rolls the bale by adding layer after layer, forming densely packed and well-shaped bales. The machine’s great feeding properties allow the elevator to start bale rolls earlier and so the baling cycle finishes earlier as well. Another boon is the denser core. Packing more material and density into each bale translates into higher-quality silage and better exploitation of truck capacities.

The bale ejector with integral tray ejects the bale fast and effectively. It allows the baler to start the next baling cycle while the tailgate is still closing. This small detail allows you to bale up to six extra bales per hour!

Positive bale starts: The profiled starter roller takes care of an instant bale start, optimizes the entire process and takes load off the rear door, which is ideal when baling heavy silage bales.

The rear door is opened and closed by single-acting rams. It is locked mechanically, reducing strain on the hydraulic system and increasing safety.

Little helpers: An audible / LED alarm is available as an option to indicate acoustically and visually when the baling pressure is right so the operator can trigger the twine wrapping cycle.

Pressure indicators on either side: Baling pressure indicators on either side of the machine show the current loading inside the chamber so the operator can correct his steering and ensure the chamber is filled uniformly – for uniform bale densities and shapes.

A single-acting hydraulic connection is standard specification on the Bellima. The switching valve operates the pick-up or the tailgate.

The main gearbox (540 rpm) is arranged centrally. Here, the incoming power is split and sent on to either side, a design that cuts down on driveline lengths and optimises the power flow to the pick-up and the slat and chain conveyor.

The drawbar height is set on a pin and hole system – straightforward and fast. You can turn the drawbar for either top or bottom hitching.

• Two threads cut down on the wrapping cycle
• Well-shaped bales as tying starts / ends in the middle of the bale
• Selectable thread spacing
• Very easy-to-use system

A twin twine tying system cuts down on machine downtime, increases output per hour, saves on fuel and labour cost and increases your output and productivity. The KRONE twin twine tying system places the twine ends in the middle of the bale and not on the edges. So the bales will not lose shape as they are handled several times over.

Hydraulic control: The hydraulic twine starter is a convenient version, which allows starting the twine wrapping system and the twine/net wrapping system from the tractor cab.

Electric control: The electric twine starter triggers twin twine wrapping on a touch of button. The system also starts the guide rolls that feed the threads to bale chamber.

The twine box stores up to six balls of twine. Refills are quick and easy. The twine balls are secured by a retainer.

A coned pulley controls the number of twine layers applied per cycle. Two threads run through drivers from the centre to either side and back to the centre of the chamber where they are cut at the end of the tying cycle. Tying is triggered hydraulically, electrically or mechanically.

• Short baling cycles for more bales per hour
• Bales break up quickly and easily in animal buildings
• Effective start of the wrapping cycle, short feed distances

The net wrapping system is straightforward by design and offers superior functionality. Net wrapping is faster than twine tying so boosting your hourly throughputs. Higher throughputs free up time for other jobs and cut fuel consumption per bale.
The net wrap system accepts KRONE excellent net rolls with a total net length of up to 3,000 m (11,811').

Replacing the net roll is convenient and safe, because the operator can stand upright when reloading. To replace an empty net roll, simply swing out the dispenser arm and slide the fresh roll onto it. Then the net is fed into the net wrap system.

Full-width conditioning: The net (1) is fed across the full width of the bale chamber to the rubber drive roller (2) and its pressure roller (3). As the wrapping cycle is triggered, the rubber roller feeds the net to the rotating bale.

The net wrapping device is located at the front in the driver's field of vision and is designed for 2600 and 3000 net rolls. There is room for one spare roll in the twine box.

The number of net layers per bale is set via the thread on the shaft of the friction wheel. The further the thread is turned out, the longer the spring rail remains on the thread. And only when the spring rail swings down, it will trigger the net cutting system.

The adjustable wrapping material brake ensures the bale is wrapped edge to edge so it does not lose its shape as it is handled several times over.

Both the net and twine wrapping devices are started with the regulating valve on the tractor.

The KRONE excellent Round Baler Twine is the high-strength and high-quality option for round balers with twine tying systems.

KRONE excellent net wrap live up to their promise. Offering an enormous tear resistance and unique spreading technology, the KRONE net wraps provide the best possible protection to your valuable crop.
