Silospeed says a key difference to its machine over other bagging outfits is that it can work with normal silage clamp sheet rather than needing a fully enclosed sausage. The edges of the sheet are only placed around 0.50m under the sides, and the weight of the forage is sufficient to hold it in place.

The pictured G430, can create a 3.75m wide clamp, which is around 6.5t of fresh material per meter. The compacting tunnel does the firming job rather than the using the film, and with grass you are looking at around 300DM per cube or 250 in maize. The tunnel is removed to reduce the transport width to 2.99m which is sufficient for the Austrian made machine to be towed at 80km/hr.

Power for this €330,000 model is from a six-cylinder FPT which is delivering 300hp. This is used to propel the bagger forward and power the rotor.
