2025 New Holland BigBaler High Density 340 High Density

ALL-OUT EFFICIENCY

HIGH-DENSITY PERFORMANCE

BigBaler 340 High Density balers can deliver up to 22% higher-density bales than other conventional large square balers, and up to 15% more when compared to BigBaler 340 PLUS models.

SMOOTH BALER ENGAGEMENT

Exclusive SmartShift™ gearbox features two-speed start-up technology for smooth baler engagement while protecting the tractor’s driveline.

OPTIMIZE YOUR PRODUCTIVITY

By combining SmartSteer™ swath guidance and the IntelliCruise™ feed rate control system, IntelliSense™ bale automation features a LiDAR sensor for hands-free baling day or night.

NOT YOUR AVERAGE KNOT

The Loop Master™ double knotting system produces stronger knots for fewer broken bales and eliminates twine offcuts for cleaner fields and feed, saving nearly four miles of twine saved every 10,000 bales.

ALL-OUT EFFICIENCY

True to its name, the BigBaler 340 High Density packs more crop into every bale. Put into numbers, the BigBaler 340 High Density can deliver up to 22% higher-density bales than other conventional large square balers, and up to 15% more when compared to a BigBaler 340 PLUS.

Features may include:

IMPROVED PRODUCTIVITY AND DURABILITY

The standard poly tine bands provide low friction and a flat surface for smoother crop flow and quieter operation. Additionally, their flexibility and high wear resistance extend the life of the tines, which means less maintenance for you. For even greater durability on the roughest terrain or when quickly baling windrows, heavy-duty gauge wheels are available with your choice of fixed or castering arm designs.

BENEFITS OF SHORTER PARTICLE LENGTH

Cutting crop as it’s fed into the baler delivers shorter particle lengths, which results in tighter material packing and greater bale density. Cutting material with up to 29 spring-protected knives can help improve silage bale fermentation, feed digestibility, bale breakup and mixing, and material absorbency. Added density can also mean more weight per bale and more tons per truck, providing even greater savings.

RELIABLE PACKER FEEDING

The high-capacity packer model features three, three-tine packer forks made of Hardox®-brand steel that deliver performance, durability, and wear resistance. To match the baler's high throughput, the packer driveline is upgraded to handle up to 25% more power than BigBaler PLUS models.

HIGH-DENSITY PERFORMANCE

The BigBaler 340 High Density can deliver up to 22% higher-density bales than other conventional large square balers, and up to 15% more when compared to the BigBaler 340 PLUS.

HEAVY-DUTY FRAME

A new, even more robust frame has been designed to withstand higher-density loads created by the baler. The new main gearbox is mounted to the top beam to reduce crop accumulation underneath and increase durability. Additionally, the drawbar is not part of the main frame to facilitate height adjustment via the dedicated height adjustment rods, which is convenient when baling with different tractors.

START WITH THE PLUNGER BACK

High density does not mean hard starting. When the machine is stopped, the smart brake stops the plunger away from the bale face. Since the plunger does not press on the bale face at startup, initial harsh-starting torque loads are virtually eliminated.
