The new Bale Shear from PJ Coen Engineering, means that farmers no longer have to cut the plastic and net from a bale by hand. The PJ Coen Bale Shear grips the outside wrap and net whilst splitting a bale in half. It pinches the net and plastic wrap holding it as the silage is dispersed. Chopping the bale in half when loading into a diet or feeder wagon produces more efficient mixing and causes less wear and tear on the feeder. Since the automatic plastic grab and bale split requires just one standard hydraulic coupling, this bale shear is ideal for front loaders.
