Patent attributes
Bailing systems and methods for bailing a material into bales. The bailing systems may include a movement mechanism, a compactor disposed downstream of the movement mechanism and a controller in wired or wireless communication with the movement mechanism and the compactor. In some examples, the movement mechanism includes an arm, a first sensor configured to collect dynamic arm position data, and a second sensor configured to collect dynamic movement parameter data. In some examples, the controller includes instructions for determining the length of the material by comparing dynamic arm position data and dynamic movement parameter data. In some examples, the compactor includes a ram, a block, and an actuator configured to move the block between a passageway position and a ram position.
