Descrição
The 9YF-2200S square baler is a high-output, towed-type baling machine built specifically for the demands of large-scale arable and mixed farming operations across the United Kingdom. Developed after years of field testing in diverse crop conditions, this square baler integrates a proprietary dual-crushing mechanism and a negative-pressure dedusting fan that work in tandem to collect, process, and compress standing, lodged, or swathed crop residues — wheat straw, rice straw, cotton stalks, maize stover, sorghum, alfalfa, and fresh or dried pasture grass — into consistently dense, well-formed square bales ready for storage, transport, or livestock feeding. Whether you manage arable acreage in East Anglia, run a beef and dairy enterprise in Yorkshire, or operate a large-scale composting and biomass business in the Midlands, this machine is designed to compress more crop in less time, reduce labour costs during the critical harvest window, and deliver bales that hold their shape from field to feed store.
How the Dual-Crushing Mechanism Works
Unlike conventional square balers that rely on a single compression pass, the 9YF-2200S square baler pairs a two-stage crushing structure with a hammer-claw picker and a fork feeding mechanism to handle crop material that other machines leave behind. In the first stage, the hammer-claw pickup drum lifts crop from a 2,200 mm swath width, breaking coarse stalks such as standing maize or sorghum at the node rather than simply folding them. The material is then passed to the fork feeding unit, which meters flow into the 460 × 360 mm compression chamber at a controlled rate — eliminating the slug-feeding that causes chamber blockages and knotter failures on rival machines operating in wet autumn conditions typical across the East Midlands and the Fens.
The negative-pressure dedusting fan — a feature unique to this class of machine — draws airborne dust, fine sand, and soil particles away from the crop stream before compression. The result is a cleaner, more palatable bale with significantly lower ash content, which is critical for UK dairy farmers feeding straw and forage under tight forage quality budgets. At the knotter station, two D-type automatic rope knotters operate simultaneously, tying each bale with precision even at the machine’s rated power range of 73.5 kW or above. Material moisture tolerance is broad: legume pastures and grass can be baled at 17–23%; rice and maize stover at 10–23%; and soil moisture conditions up to 25% with gradients below 8° present no operational problem, making this machine well-suited to the heavy clay soils of Kent, Lincolnshire, and the Yorkshire Wolds.
Key Performance Advantages
Dual Crushing Structure
Two-stage crushing of hard-stalked crops (maize, sorghum, cotton) achieves more complete fibre breakdown, increasing bale density and reducing fermentation dead zones in wrapped silage bales.
Negative-Pressure Dedusting Fan
Actively separates dust and fine soil from crop before baling — a genuine differentiator for UK dairy operations where forage hygiene directly impacts milk quality and animal health scores.
Wide Crop Compatibility
Currently one of the few machines in this class capable of reliably picking up and baling standing, lodged, or laid wheat straw, maize stover, and alfalfa in the same season without mechanical adjustments.
Automatic Rope Baling
Twin D-type knotters with automatic rope feed deliver consistent tying performance at speed, eliminating the operator intervention needed with older single-knotter designs during high-volume harvest runs.
High Bale Density & Stability
The 460 × 360 mm compression chamber cross-section and dual-stage crush produce bales with excellent structural integrity — stacking cleanly in buildings, withstanding outdoor weathering under sheet, and preserving dry matter through long UK winters.
Reduced Harvest Labour Pressure
Designed to ease the time-critical pressure of summer and autumn harvests, this square baler combines high throughput with low operator intervention — particularly valuable for UK farms operating with tight labour windows and contractor scheduling.

Lincolnshire Arable Contractor, UK — Mixed Straw & Maize Operation
A large-scale arable contracting business based near Boston, Lincolnshire, operating across a 4,000-acre block of wheat, barley, and fodder maize. The operator had previously used a European square baler that consistently struggled with lodged maize stover, generating frequent feeder blockages and one to two knotter failures per season. After switching to the 9YF-2200S square baler with dual-crushing mechanism in the 2024 harvest season, the operation reported zero chamber blockages during the maize stover campaign, an estimated 18% improvement in daily bale output versus the previous machine, and a measurable reduction in bale dust — confirmed by third-party forage analysis showing lower ash content across all baled straw lots. The contractor has since placed an order for a second unit ahead of the 2025 harvest.
“We bale over 6,000 acres of wheat straw every July and the dual-crushing unit on this machine has been a game-changer. Cleaner bales, faster throughput, and the knotters haven’t missed a beat. We’ve recommended Ever-Power to two neighbouring farms already.”
— J. Henderson, Arable Contractor
North Yorkshire, UK
“I run a dairy herd of 380 cows and bought this square baler primarily for alfalfa and grass hay. The dedusting fan makes an obvious difference — the cows eat the bales down to nothing and palatability scores are up. Delivery from Ever-Power was professional and the after-sales support has been genuinely responsive.”
— R. Fitzgerald, Dairy Farm Manager
Cheshire, UK
“We source agricultural machinery for clients across the East Midlands and found this square baler to represent strong value relative to comparable European machines. Lead time was quoted accurately, FOB pricing was competitive, and documentation for import was clean. Two clients have now taken delivery and both are satisfied with field performance.”

Explore More Baler Options
Not every crop or operation calls for the same machine configuration. For farms handling primarily grass silage and mixed forage in wet upland conditions across Wales, Scotland, and the North of England, a round baler may offer advantages in bale handling and wrapping compatibility. The 9YK-870 Round Baler is a heavy-duty towed unit engineered for high-moisture forage crops, producing uniform cylindrical bales at outputs suited to medium and large farms, with a robust belt-and-roller chamber design that feeds without blockages even in difficult conditions. For operations that need both round and square bale options in the same fleet, or for contractors handling a broad mix of crop types across multiple client farms, pairing this square baler with a round baler provides genuine operational flexibility. Alternatively, if your primary requirement is a large-format square baler for high-throughput wheat straw and maize stover campaigns, the 9YF-2200/1900/1700 Series Square Baler range offers multiple picking width configurations to match different swath widths and tractor power bands — a practical choice for farms standardising on a single baler model across variable field widths.
