Tama is committed to working on the collection and disposal of used Netwrap and invests significant resources into environment-friendly production processes. By using Tama nets you will save up to 20% on plastic waste compared to using ‘traditional’ netwrap, thanks to Tama’s ‘weight-optimized’ products. Tama’s longer lengths also reduce the number of rolls required for the same bale count, compared with ‘traditional’ netwrap, reducing packaging waste and transport resources. Furthermore, Tama are one of the leading members of all National and European Collection Schemes. Also, Tama is heavily involved in recycling netwrap collected from the field, in collaboration with the Healix project.

The diameter, and width, of all Tama nets will allow it to fit comfortably into the feeding box of all baler types. Tama nets are developed and approved with all the leading OEM’s around the world, to ensure full compatibility.

We guarantee a minimum net strength. Yes. As well as constant checks during production. Regular benchmark comparative tests are showing on average our net is 17% stronger than competitors’ nets.

Original Edge to Edge coverage, from Tama’s Edge to Edge patent and more meters per roll at the same weight as ‘traditional’ netwrap, that means: more bales per roll, less roll changeovers, less rolls needed to store, less plastic used to bale the same number of bales, and a better cost per bale. Tama net is weight optimized but stronger.

Tama netwraps are available in lengths from 2,000m to 4,500m. All types and brands of Tama netwrap have a guaranteed minimum length, using European measuring method with stamp of approval. competitor nets, working on a plus or minus tolerance, and not minimum length, based on our continuance benchmarking, are on average 8% less than their declared length.

This depends upon bale diameter and crop type, Tama has recommendations on how many wraps should be applied, which can be found on the sleeve, in the booklet attached to the roll.

Most baler chambers are between 117cm and 123cm. Tama’s netwrap is 1.23m wide and designed to cover the bale from edge to edge, in all round balers, often covering a bit more, and is better than most 1.25cm netwraps.

When using Round Bale Netwrap, a few moments must be taken to ensure correct preparation of your machine in order to achieve the best results. The most common problems of net splitting, tearing, or fouling on feed rollers arise from the net ‘laddering’, where threads become broken, leading to a running stitch in the net running opposite to the direction of the net, eventually causing the net to separate where the ‘ladder’ has occurred. This can be caused by many different and varying circumstances but will always have the same ‘ladder’ effect.

• Check that the area in which the roll sits is free from dirt and debris. Ensure that all metal surfaces the net comes into contact with are free from rust or sharp edges or weld spots (net box sides, spreader bars and rollers etc.), or dried paint ‘lumps’ on any surfaces which could damage the net. Clean up with emery paper if necessary. Also, check that the path for the net to the bale behind the feed mechanism is not dirty or rusty, which could restrict the net’s passage when feeding – often identified by a ‘lump’ of net at the start of the wrapping cycle. This is especially important when starting baling after winter storage.
• Ensure the net is threaded correctly. Incorrect feeding of the net will cause incorrect tension being applied, leading to feeding and cutting difficulties which, in turn, will cause problems on subsequent net feed cycles. Where the net is fed through a series of fixed tension bars, always make sure these are clean and polished to avoid excessive friction. Excessive net friction or an uneven surface will cause the net to tear.
• Where two rollers are used to feed the net, it is imperative these are correctly aligned and tensioned against one another, to enable the net to feed in evenly and under the correct tension. Incorrectly aligned rollers will produce a corresponding uneven net feed and subsequent cutting action at the end of the wrapping cycle. This will result in poor bale coverage and possible net fouling on the feed rollers at the start of the next cycle. The rollers’ surface should also be closely inspected for abrasions or damage, which could snag the net when feeding.
• Ensure the feed rollers are clean of any moisture or residue. Never use an aggressive cleaning agent such as petrol or turpentine to clean rubber rollers.
• Always dust rubber rollers down with French chalk or talc powder when loading a new roll of Netwrap, or use anti-static spray to reduce net static when operating. This avoids the net fouling and wrapping around the rollers when feeding in.
• Carefully inspect the condition of the belt joiners on variable chamber balers for damage or worn connections, as this will snag the net and cause a tear, which will split the net on the bale.
• Make sure the knife or cutting surface is clean and undamaged. Poor cutting action will result in an uneven ‘tail’ to the net, which can become tangled in the rollers and feed mechanism.

Round baling with Netwrap is the most convenient and least expensive way of wrapping your bale. Wrapping with Netwrap reduces costs by being faster than using twine and offers much better protection to the crop than twine ever could.
The main points include:

• Less wear and tear on the baler
  Fewer revolutions of the bale are needed when net wrapping, dramatically reducing wear and tear on the baler.

• Greater speed of operation
  Netwrap needs fewer revolutions, reducing the wrapping time and allowing up to 15-20 more bales per hour.

• Better coverage on the bale
  Net wrapped bales maintain a more uniform shape, making transporting and handling easier, particularly important when wrapping silage bales on an automatic bale wrapper. Bale coverage from edge to edge is also essential when silage wrapping, eliminating air from the bale to ensure better quality forage.

• Better weathering capability
  Net wrapped bales offer much better weathering capability, allowing outdoor storage and reducing loss from crop wastage.

• Easier to remove
  Opening a net wrapped bale is a simple and straight-forward operation. The use of net eliminates the difficult and tiresome task of removing baler twine, especially in frosty conditions, and is also less likely to be picked up by livestock or machinery.

Absolutely. All of Tama twines, including IMPAX twines are 100% recyclable and it’s our goal to be an active participant in doing our part to close the loop.

You don’t have to! We now have a full range of heavy twines with IMPAX Technology. Choose the right twine for your application and goals and experience all of the benefits that IMPAX provides to your operation.

The short answer: Many more bales! If we look at one example: We produce our standard Tama Twine+ HD Prime at 1,100 meters, which would make approximately 825 (2.4m) bales. If the new TamaTwine+ with IMPAX Technology HD Prime 1,800 meter spools were used, an operator could make approximately 1,350 bales per baler load. That’s an increase of 525 more bales in every baler load of IMPAX Twine!

In many cases operators are able to increase their efficiency by making heavier bales using IMPAX Technology twines. Heavier bales reduce the amount of twine consumed during a season, reduce transportation costs and reduce the amount of storage needed to protect the same amount of crop. Please contact your local expert to learn more about how we can hep you make heavier bales and increase your overall efficiency.

Since IMPAX technology twines contain up to 40% more twine in every spool, compared to standard twines, the cost per spool or cost per kg may seem relatively expensive. But don’t forget that each spool or each kg of twine can actually make many more bales than standard twines. This is where calculating the cost per 1,000’ meters or cost per square bale is key, in order to make a fair comparison. If you need assistance, please contact one of our experts and we’ll be happy to help.

IMPAX Technology twines provide noticeable advantages to any Large Square Baling operation. Due to the twine’s reduced diameter, we are able to provide many more meters per spool, which increases the number of bales an operator can make with each baler load of twine. The smaller diameter of the twine also reduces common tying issues experienced in the field, while reducing the wear and tear on the tying system components in the baler. Couple this with a large reduction in the amount of plastic used per bale or per season, you are helping to reduce your carbon footprint in your own operation.

No. Like many of Tama’s innovative products, other manufacturer’s try to replicate the cutting edge products that Tama produces, but they are unable to achieve a similar end result in their products. Genuine IMPAX Technology is the only advanced twine on the market that increases efficiency and productivity to a whole new level.

IMPAX Technology was first developed for high density large square balers, since the twine was becoming increasingly thick to hold denser bales together, we found a new way to combine strength, while providing a smaller diameter twine. We now offer multiple types of heavy twines with IMPAX Technology – from standard density to ultra-high density large square bales, we’ve got you covered.

Before Tama introduces any new product to the market, we invest many years & thousands of hours in the field to perfect the product for our end users to be proud to use our products. IMPAX Technology is no different. After over 5 years of development and millions of bales made all over the globe, we are confident that IMPAX Technology can improve nearly any operation.

Yes! Tama is proud to introduce Tama Twine with IMPAX Technology inside! This revolutionary & patented technology combines a smaller twine diameter with unique shock absorbing characteristics, which protects the knots from breaking, improves knotting performance and increases efficiency, all while reducing the amount of plastic needed for the season. Check out our new IMPAX product line.

There are many national and local collection schemes throughout Europe, which aide in the collection and transportation of used agricultural plastics, including baler twine. For more information, please contact your local Tama representative.

Within Tama, we incorporate additional PCR polypropylene into other products such as netwrap cradles, end bungs, carrying handles and other packaging components. In addition, the excess PCR material helps to reduce the plastic impact within the automotive and construction industries in what’s called an open loop process.

Yes! Tama has partnered with a revolutionary plastic recycler in the Netherlands, called Healix. Together, we’ve perfected the process to recycle used twine from Europe and successfully incorporate the Post Consumer Resin (PCR), back into what we call TamaCycle twine products. Tama Cycle Twine contains at least 30% PCR & closes the loop, in a full circle, multiple lifespan, sustainable product.

Tama twines contain nearly 100% high quality polypropylene, combined with colour pigment, proprietary additives and UV stabilizers. We only use the highest quality resins and additives to provide premium mechanical properties & workability in the field.

Fibrillation is the name to describe the fine mesh-like appearance of the twine when un-twisted.  It is a part of the production process designed to make twine softer and more flexible to assist with tighter knot formation & knot holding capability.

Yes, Tama R&D works closely with all OEM’s (Original Equipment Manufacturers) engineering departments to test, validate and approve the use of the right twines for each application, taking the guesswork out of the equation, when using Tama Twines.

Who makes knotters …

CLAAS – validated with UCF

AGCO (Massey Ferguson, Hesston & Fendt) validated with AGCO

Raaspe – knotters for CNH, Krone, Kuhn

All OEM’s use Tama Twine for their knotter setup and testing!

Yes, the amount of flakes per bale affects bale density, bale shape and can put more or less stress on the twine. Lower flakes per bale (<30) puts added stress on the twine, due to the faster rate of expansion when pushed from the chamber. Very high flakes per bale (+45) can put less stress on the twine, but can lead to less dense bales.

The first baler knotting system was patented by John Appleby in 1878 in the USA. Since then, some modifications have been made by various engineers, but the concept largely remains the same.

Yes, there are generally 3 types of knotters:

1. Double Knotter: A double knotter style, which makes 2 Deering knots in each twine in each knotting cycle.
2. Single Knotter: A single knotter style, which makes 1 Cormick or looped single knot in each twine in each knotting cycle.
3. Combination Double Knotter: A double knotter which makes a combination of a Cormick or loop knot and a standard Deering knot in each knotting cycle.

Each operator has their preferred type of knot. The most ideal knot should be compact and easily pass through the guides and tensioners, without coming un-tied. In addition, make sure the twines are routed properly within the baler, per the manufacturer’s instructions provided with the baler. A few common knots for connecting spools may be square knots, reef knots, surgeon’s knots or fisherman’s knots, among others.

Yes, careful handling of the spools will ensure that the twine will perform properly in the baler. If damaged spools are used in a baler, they may cause tying problems and damage to some components in the tying system.

Twine should unwind from the centre of the spool in a counter-clockwise direction. If the twine unwinds in a clockwise direction, the spool is upside-down.

Tensile strength is the maximum breaking force of a specific twine, without a knot, when measured while being pulled between two opposing drums.

Knot strength describes the maximum measured strength a twine containing a knot can achieve, before breaking while being pulled between two opposing drums.

Yes, Tama twine can be stored outside. We use higher than average amounts of UV stabilizer to protect the twine from UV degradation. Although, for long term storage, we recommend storing all agricultural plastics inside, whenever possible. Protecting your investment will pay off in the long run.

Tama twines are manufactured using the most advanced equipment and techniques, with higher specification resins, which create strong twine without excess thickness.  This means Tama twine is less bulky than a traditional twine of equivalent strength, which enables more stable and secure knots. For help in choosing the right twine for your application, please feel free to contact your nearest Tama representative. Or check out our resources at Tama Assist

The colour of the twine has no impact on the strength or knotting performance. Many advancements in raw material and colour pigment carriers have reduced the differences in how different colours perform in a baler. Not all manufacturers use high quality colour additives, but with Tama, you know what to expect, consistency and reliability.

No, there can be many differences from one manufacturer to another, based on many factors. Even within Tama, we manufacture many different types of twines, with different specifications, for each application. Contact our experts to discover more.

Like all makes of twine, some balers may require slight adjustment to obtain the best knotting performance between different twine types and producers.

Tama twine performs well with all makes and models of large square balers, when matched to the correct application, in a properly adjusted and maintained baler. For additional information and support, please visit Tama Assist 

Calculate the amount of twine needed per bale.  Bale length (X2) + bale height (X2) x number of knotters (4, 5, 6 or 8 knotters depending on baler) = total amount of twine used per bale.

Example:

Bale Length: 2.4 meters

Bale Height: 0.9 meters

# of Knotters: 6

((2.4 X 2) + (0.9 X 2)) X 6 = 39.6 meters of twine needed per bale.

We also recommend adding some additional length for the twine needed for each knot on the bale. (1.2m additional length for a double knotter; 0.6m additional length for a single knotter, per bale)

39.6m of twine per bale + 1.2m additional length for knots in a double knotter baler = 40.8m of twine needed per bale.

Tama twine guarantees the stated length of the spools & packs of twine, for your peace of mind during your buying decisions.

Estimate the number of spools needed:

Length per pack:                                          2200 meters

Length of twine needed per bale:            /40.8  meters

# of square bales per pack                         = 53 square bales per pack

Cost per kg only takes into account the weight of plastic within a spool of twine, but does not factor in the density or runnage of the twine, which can vary greatly from one manufacturer to another. This comparison can only be used if the two twines being compared are of identical runnage.

Cost per square bale, based on an average bale length, compares an equal amount of twine needed to make one square bale and the associated cost of twine for each bale.

Cost per 1,000m compares an equal length of twine, regardless of the density or runnage of the twine, for an equal length comparison.

Standard Tama twines are manufactured to be able to fit in common balers with smaller twine boxes. Tama extended length spools offer many more meters per spool, but are intended for modern balers with larger twine boxes.

Raw Materials
Ensure that the twine has been produced with raw materials from ISO-approved producers.
Poor quality raw materials can lead to poor quality end products.
Easy Feed
With some makes of twine, the spool centre may frequently collapse, causing difficulties when attempting to draw the first few hundred metres from the spool. Choosing a twine with a larger diameter centre, that allows the twine to flow freely from the beginning, will eliminate such problems.
Kinked Twine
A consistent and smooth shape to the twine will eliminate potential ‘hang-ups’ in its path through the baler and the knotter mechanism, reducing costly downtime when baling.
Fibrillation
When buying Big Bale twines, ensure that the twine has high fibrillation.This guarantees a uniform and consistent twist and higher performance through the knotting mechanism. A highly fibrillated twine will give optimum knot strength and also help avoid knot slippage

Large Square Baling
Very careful attention should be paid to the bale pressure, depending on the type and condition of the crop being baled. During periods of extended dry and hot weather, for instance, straw bales may be noticeably lighter than during normal conditions, with the baler set to the same bale pressure setting.
In these circumstances, a decrease in pressure setting will overcome this; or, alternatively, a move to the next heavier twine is recommended.
For baling good quality large square silage bales, it is important to follow a few simple guidelines:

• Ensure the crop has wilted to a minimum of 40 – 50% dry matter (DM), which will produce well-formed bales as well as excellent fermentation.
• Ensure the twine box tension is reduced as much as possible, as twine friction experienced between silage bales during baling is much greater than between straw bales.
• Eliminate as much air as possible from the crop when baling, as it is essential that sufficient crop is packed into the top of the bale to avoid misshapen bales being formed, which may be difficult for an automatic bale-wrapper to handle properly. A reduction in forward speed will help to achieve this by increasing the number of wads per bale.

When purchasing baler twine, Tama recommends checking the raw materials, ensuring they are from ISO-approved manufacturers. The twine’s design should facilitate easy feeding, prevent kinking, and exhibit high fibrillation for optimal knot strength and to avoid knot slippage. Tama Twine+ HD Prime Impax addresses these considerations, providing a reliable solution for farmers’ baling needs.

IMPAX® Technology is a key feature of Tama Twine+ HD Prime. It is formulated to provide unparalleled baling efficiency, with a twine structure purpose-built to withstand the force applied during bale ejection. This guarantees secured knots and unrivaled knot performance, ensuring total workability during the baling process.

Yes. Tama Twine+ HD Prime IMPAX® comes in two sizes, and it includes an extended spool variant specifically designed for certain baler models like Krone Gen 5 and New Holland 1290 HD. This customization ensures optimal performance for these specific baler models.

Tama Twine+ HD Prime IMPAX® is the longest twine ever made, offering exceptional length for challenging baling needs, providing easy handling even in harsh conditions.

Prioritizing these qualities ensures a hassle-free baling process, reducing the risk of downtime and maximizing your efficiency as a farmer.

High strength is essential to ensure the twine reliably holds knots, preventing bale breakage and loss.

Consistency ensures smooth operation in your baler, increasing your overall productivity.

The easy feed design ensures that the twine flows seamlessly from start to finish on the spool, making your work easier and more efficient.

What to look for when buying your baler twine?

a. Raw Material
Ensure that the twine has been produced with raw material from ISO approved producers.
Poor quality raw material can lead to poor quality end product.

b. Easy Feed
On some makes of twine the spool centre can often collapse and cause difficulty when attempting to draw the first few hundred metres from the spool. Choosing a twine with a larger diameter centre that allows the twine to flow freely from the beginning will eliminate problems.

c. Kinked Twine
A consistent and smooth shape to the twine will eliminate potential ‘hang-ups’ in its path through the baler and knotter mechanism, reducing costly downtime when baling.

d. Fibrillation
When buying Big Bale twines, ensure the twine has a high fibrillation. This guarantees a uniform and consistent twist and will give a higher performance through the knotting mechanism. A highly fibrillated twine will give optimum knot strength and also help avoid knot slippage.

Water in bales can be caused by several things, most obviously being poorly shaped or soft bales stacked on their sides in a pyramid, where the bales below are squashed out of shape. Once the bales lose their uniform, round shape, that the film has been pulled tight against, the film layers can come apart allowing water in. The best way to avoid this is to make more dense bales and stack them on end, like tin cans, rather than on their side.

Yes! More layers offer greater protection for the bale from puncturing when dropped onto the crop stubble in the field or during handling. Also, more layers make it much more difficult for air to enter the bale over time, during storage.

There are many reasons, the most obvious being the tack level on the film, allowing it to stick to the bale surface when the wrapping is finished. Other reasons may be that the film is not stretched correctly, making it loose on application and unable to ‘grip’ to the previous layer. More commonly, the cutting problem is because the knife is not sharp enough and the film does not immediately separate fully from the roll and the bale eventually pulls it apart when it is dropped off the wrapper, leaving a twisted tail of film that can never attach itself to the bale surface.

Wrapped silage bales are convenient to handle, store, and transport, making feeding out easier and more efficient. If feeding extremely large cattle herds, in one location, pit or clamp silage can be more suitable, however, the amount of silage exposed to the air, once the pit or clamp is open, means there is more silage at risk of spoilage.

If the film is stretched by 70%, you should expect to obtain at least 22 bales when applying 6 film layers. If only applying 4 film layers, the number of bales possible will be 33. These calculations are based on a 4ft (1.22mt) x 4ft (1.22mt) round bale.

Assuming the ‘mechanical properties’ of the film are good enough, which most top manufacturers are, the main guarantee of good silage concerning the film, is that it seals well, and each application overlaps the last by at least 50%, with the best results coming from the application of at least 6 film layers. The actual difference in thickness of film going onto the bale, after the stretching rollers, is insignificant.

Yes! EZ Web has been designed specifically to work with stretchfilm and what’s more, is made from the same material, meaning you no longer have to separate come disposal time.

Cycle wrap is manufactured using innovative, super-strong materials, processed through cutting-edge methods. This ensures consistent performance and suitability for high-speed baling, especially with square wrappers.

Cycle wrap significantly reduces plastic material usage per bale, promoting an environmentally friendly approach to wrapping.

One standout feature is its status as the only internationally certified recycled bale wrap (ISCC Plus), guaranteeing complete traceability from origin to finished product and a commitment to using over 30% post-consumer recycled material.

This process ensures remarkable uniformity and sealing properties, making the wrap highly effective in preserving bales, by creating an ideal seal.

Wrapping silage bales in plastic film offers great flexibility in operation, storage and feed quality. It also enables any excess to be transported conveniently, unlike clamp silage.
With effluent control legislation introduced in the mid 90’s, many farmers switched to silage bales as a means to store their valuable winter forage, as an alternative to expensive improvements required to older clamps.

Water in bales can be caused by several things, most obviously being poorly shaped or soft bales stacked on their sides in a pyramid, where the bales below are squashed out of shape. Once the bales lose their uniform, round shape, that the film has been pulled tight against, the film layers can come apart allowing water in. The best way to avoid this is to make more dense bales and stack them on end, like tin cans, rather than on their side.
