Abstract: Bagging machines may include a packing density measurement system. The packing density measurement system includes an anchor assembly and a force measurement assembly. The anchor assembly includes at least one drag member adapted to be operatively coupled to the bagging machine and to extend rearwardly beneath at least a portion of a bag to resist forward movement of the bagging machine. The force measurement assembly is operatively coupled to the anchor assembly and is adapted to measure the anchoring force applied to the bagging machine. The anchor assembly may be adjustable, either manually or automatically, to allow control over the anchoring force.

Abstract: Bagging machines for controlling the packing density of material being packed into a container may include one or more density control apparatus or assemblies. The density control apparatus may include an elongate density control member having first and second forward ends operatively coupled to the bagging machine and a central portion extending rearwardly therefrom to provide a density control assembly of a first configuration. The elongate density control member also may be operatively associated with at least one pair of density-setting posts operatively coupled to a portion of the bagging machine to selectively provide a density control assembly of at least one additional configuration. Additionally or alternatively, the bagging machines may include a forward wheel assembly operatively coupled to a forward region of the bagging machine to enable the bagging machine to move over a ground surface.

Abstract: Apparatus and methods for bagging organic and other material such as silage, compost, grain, sawdust, dirt, sand, etc., wherein plastic material is dispensed from a roll mounted on the bagging machine so that the plastic material is at least partially wrapped around the material being bagged as the bagging machine moves ahead during packing and filling.

Abstract: A density controller is provided for a bagging machine designed for filling or packing material such as silage, compost or the like into an elongate flexible bag or container. The adjustable density controller comprises a drag member or strap with a selectively adjustable length that is positioned beneath the bag being filled and the ground. The weight of the material in the bag on the flexible member resists the forward movement of the bagging machine away from the closed end of the bag. The density of the material being packed or bagged is varied by the surface area of the flexible member that is positioned beneath the bag being filled.

Abstract: A bagging machine for bagging agricultural or compost material includes a tunnel adapted to be configured in at least two positions. The tunnel may be configured in an open position and in a closed position. The tunnel may include a first and a second tunnel member joined by a coupling assembly. The coupling assembly may allow the first and second tunnel members to move between the two or more positions. At least one third tunnel member may be provided to cover at least one opening between the first and second tunnel members.
