The MCHALE FUSION VARIO PLUS is a fully automatic integrated baler wrapper which can apply film or net wrap to the barrel of the bale, delivering optimum bale shape and bale density. The Vario Plus can provide high quality fodder through the use of the film binding system, resulting in better quality silage and easier feed out. This machine provides a number of benefits as the task of baling and wrapping can be carried out using one machine. There is also a labor saving, as one operator, one tractor and one machine can complete baling and wrapping duties. The McHale Fusion Vario Plus also has the ability to make bales of hay and straw from 0.6m to 1.68m (2’–5’6″) but in haylage or silage, it produces bales from 1m to 1.45m (3 ‘ 3 “–4 ‘8 “) to allow for wrapping.
It features two unique patents; a patented bale transfer system and a patented vertical wrapping ring.

Features
Transfer System
As the transfer cradle moves the bale towards the wrapping ring, the wrapping roller closest to the bale chamber pivots out of the way, thereby reducing the height the bale has to travel to get to the wrapper. This clever system saves time, as the patented system moves the bale quickly, ensuring the McHale Fusion Vario delivers the highest possible output.
Wrapping System
This high-speed vertical wrapping ring can apply four layers of film to a 1.25 metre bale in approximately 20 seconds, or six layers of film in 30 seconds. In normal working conditions the ever efficient wrapping process is always complete ahead of the baler, meaning that the wrapping platform is always ready and waiting to capture the next ejected bale.
