From new models to new features, McHale will be displaying a number of new machines at this years Agritechnica, which will include the McHale R80-90 Centre Delivery Rake and the McHale V6-II & V8-II Variable Chamber Balers along with the new TerraDrive Axle feature which is now available on the McHale Fusion 4 Plus.
The McHale centre delivery rake range has been on the market for a number of years and for the 2026 season, McHale is expanding this range to include the new McHale R80-90. This machine will be the largest machine in the range with a working width of 8m to 9m. Like the rest of the McHale rakes, the new R80-90 is equipped with a number of novel features as standard such as Rotor Height Adjustment, Tine Arm Cam Adjustment, Hydraulic Width Adjustment and Individual Rotor Lift. These features ensure the clean gathering of crop to the swath and improves operator comfort.
McHale will also be launching the next generation of Variable Chamber Balers in the form of the V6-II & V8-II. These machines have proven themselves around the world and are now enhanced by the introduction of ISOBUS as standard across the V6750-II & V8950-II machines. These models also feature a new ISO-Play 6 console if required which enables the machine to operated using a non-ISOBUS tractor. These new features have added to the operator’s comfort and user friendliness of the machine by allowing the operator to experience the highest level of customisation and machine performance. Aside from the new control functionality, the next generation of V6 & V8 machines also feature Load Cell Bale Shape Indicators for more accurate and responsive measurement of the bale shape, Active Density Control which varies the density pressure regulation at predetermined points of the process and these machines will be TIM ready to allow the baler to control certain functions of the tractor for improved operator comfort.
McHale are also proud to introduce the new TerraDrive Axle which is available as an optional extra on the McHale Fusion 4 Plus. The TerraDrive option enhances your baler’s performance in challenging terrain by upgrading the standard main axle to a hydraulic drive axle. This feature is particularly useful to assist the tractor when operating in soft, wet or hilly conditions. TerraDrive employs hydraulic motors in the axle which enable the baler’s wheels to provide additional traction and in turn helps distribute the workload more efficiently by improving mobility and reducing the strain on the tractor. The TerraDrive axle is compatible with ISOBUS and non-ISOBUS tractors and intuitively pauses during the bale binding process. This axle also comes fitted on the V-Series 710 tyres that has an evenly distributed footprint and is designed for soil preservation and grassland friendliness.
