Even Higher Bale Density

The bale chamber is extended by 31.5 in. (800 mm) or 31% for up to 10% higher bale density.

Softer Bale Drop

The longer bale chamber also means bales exit the bale chute closer to the ground for gentler bale drop and less concern about twine breakage.

Easier Cleaning

A larger platform allows for easier cleaning of the sides of the baler. Folding safety railings simplify shipping and provide better access to the front of knotter fans.

The Right Model For You

With the choice of three bale sizes with available crop processing and tire/axle combinations for any terrain, you’ll find a model that’s ideal for your needs.

Big On Capacity, Density, And Efficiency.

Take your baling productivity to the next level with New Holland BigBaler PLUS Series large square balers. Their strong, single-piece frame, heavy-duty driveline, and reinforced plunger components deliver commercial-grade longevity. For impressive crop throughput, count on the MaxiSweep™ pickup, crop processing system of your choice, a high-speed plunger that hammers at 48 strokes per minute, the multi-award-winning Loop Master™ double loop knotting system, and long bale chamber. With a BigBaler PLUS, you’ll make dense, well-shaped bales at speeds of up to 110 bales per hour, packing more crop into every bale and more productivity into every day. After all, no one says, “go small or go home.”

Features may include:

Maxisweep™ Speed And Performance

The MaxiSweep pickup is designed to give you unsurpassed performance. Flare-to-flare width ranges from 77.5 inches on the 330 Plus Standard to 92.6 inches on the BigBaler 340 PLUS CropCutter® model.

Get The Benefits Of Shorter Chop Length

Chopping crop as it’s fed into the baler provides a number of advantages. The shorter particle length allows for tighter packing of material in the bale, better fermentation in silage bales due to less air in the bale and more anaerobic bacteria activity. Cutting silage, hay or straw bales also allows for more efficient feeding and spreading of material. New Holland offers two CropCutter® processing options—the high-performance Rotor Cutter feeding system and the more simple, economical Packer Cutter system.

An Industry-Leading System That’S Now Even Better

BigBaler PLUS balers feature a bale chamber that has been extended by 31.5 inches or 31% compared to previous models. The change results in an increase in bale density of up to 10%, and allows you to bale all day long without popping twine in the heat of the day.

Less Risk Of Twine Breakage

The gentler bale drop of BigBaler PLUS Series balers allows for operation closer to twine knot strength without twine breakage—even in the hottest hours of the day.

The Intelliview™ Advantage

New Holland IntelliView touchscreen color monitors are simple to use and put complete control at your fingertips. Choose between two options—the seven-inch IntelliView III monitor or the 10.5-inch IntelliView IV monitor for wide-screen viewing.

Widest Range Of Chute Options

No matter which type of chute you choose, bales drop more gently to the ground, thanks to the extended bale chamber. A single-piece roller bale chute comprised of all rollers allows the bale to glide effortlessly out of the bale chamber to the ground. The deluxe, industry-exclusive, soft-drop, two-piece roller bale chute features a tilt-table design for gentle handing of heavy bales for fewer broken strings.
