Silage baler
Baler-wrapper combination | LT-Master F60
For decades, the world-renowned LT-Master and VARIO-Master baler-wrapper combinations have been an important component in the preservation of feed. The materials that can be processed into round bales have expanded enormously in recent years – as have the sophisticated and detailed solutions for the baler-wrapper combinations. Now GÖWEIL presents a new – small – model of the Master series: The LT-Master F60!
The „little variant“ of the LT-Master F115 is equipped with a fixed chamber baler and produces compact bales with a size of 0.60 x 0.60 m. This provides customers in the small bale sector a machine with proven GÖWEIL quality.

Setup & Material Flow
A significant highlight of the LT-Master F60 is that it is immediately ready for use! With the double-acting control unit on the tractor, the machine is lowered, the PTO is switched on and the bunker of the LT-Master F60 can be filled. Under optimal operating conditions, up to 90 bales per hour can be baled and wrapped.
StructureThe LT-Master F60 is connected to the tractor with a lower linkage link drawbar. The baler-wraper combination is driven by a cardan shaft.
BunkerThe spacious bunker can hold up to 3.5 m³ of material.
Steep elevatorThe material is dosed via the steep elevator and transported into the bale chamber.
Bale deliveryOnce the film has been cut off and the bale wrapped, the wrapping table tilts towards the bale delivery ramp and deposits it neatly.Reermann Agrarservice in action with two G-1 F125 Kombi units

Workflow
Feed Pick-Up
The feed is scooped up by the pickup of the baler and shaped into a bale in the bale chamber.
Bale transfer
➡ Direct bale transfer: quick, clean and straightforward
The wrapping table moves under the bale chamber. Once fully wrapped, the bale is transferred from the bale chamber to the wrapping table – without ever touching the ground.
➡ Secure bale guiding even in slope positions.
The four bale guide rollers ensure that the bales are guided along securely. This guarantees that the bale is transferred in a secure and reliable manner – even in slope positions. The transfer itself merely takes a few seconds. The tailgate already closes while the wrapping table is moving to the wrapping position. The baling process can continue without any interruption.
Wrapping Process
The twin wrapping arm and the two 750 mm film stretching units ensure that the bale is wrapped in no time at all. The wrapping process will always be finished faster than the baling process. Since always guided securely, the bale is wrapped perfectly even in slope positions.
Bale delivery
Once the round bale is fully wrapped, the film is cut off. When the bale is dropped, the wrapping table moves to the rear and lowers all the way to the ground. This provides for a gentle deposit of the bales.
Feeding system & dosing highlights
Spacious bunker
The 3.5 m³ bunker provides sufficient buffer to be able to feed the machine permanently. This prevents the LT-Master F60 from coming to a standstill. With the viewing windows, the filling level can be monitored at any time.
Steep elevator
The material is fed into the bale chamber in perfectly metered quantities via the steep elevator. The galvanized, drop-forged scraper floor chains from Rübig are virtually indestructible.
Refeed conveyor
The new refeed belt made of PVC and with a U-profile runs under the entire machine, catches losses and guides them cleanly back into the bunker. From there, the material is processed again.
Highlights of the baler
Hydraulically powered bale chamber
The hydraulically powered bale chamber favors a machine-friendlier way of working and also reduces the noise level of the baler-wrapper combination. What's more, the hydraulic drive enables the user to choose between different speeds during baling and binding (4 levels respectively). This means that the machine can be better adapted to the different materials and conditions, saving time and energy. This saves both energy and time.
Fixed chamber with continuous belt
The rollers of the fixed chamber are surrounded by a continuous endless belt. This minimizes material losses. helping to ensure a reliable bale start and good bale ejection.
High compression density
The 4.5 mm thick steel rollers ensure optimum processing of the material and high bale density. The driven rollers are equipped with a ribbed profile, which guarantees secure rotation of the bale. Large dimensioned and sealed spherical roller bearings with bearing labyrinth ensure a long service life.
Net or film
An efficient binding system is needed to keep a bale in perfect condition. The LT-Master F60 is equipped as standard with a combined binding unit for net or film.
Wrapper highlights
Hydraulically actuated wrapping table
When the bale is transferred, the tailgate opens downward and the wrapping table tilts toward the bale. The bale is transferred directly, quickly and gently. Conveyor belts and bale guide rollers always guarantee continuous advance of the bale and thus uniform overlapping of the film. For bale placement, the wrapping table swivels the bale onto the bale delivery ramp.
Twin wrapping arm
The standard double wrapping arm with 2 x 375 mm film pre-stretchers wraps the 60 cm bales in the shortest possible time. More bales per roll of film are the result of the patented plastic rollers.
Bale delivery ramp
The mechanically lowerable bale delivery ramp ensures a gentle bale deposit.
Film cutter
The stainless steel cutting knife guarantees precise cutting of the film. The film holder fixes the film and ensures easy release. Thus, there are no jammed film residues.
Film monitoring with single-film mode
If a roll of film runs out or the film tears, the feed rate of the wrapping table is reduced until a 50% overlap is guaranteed once more. This allows bale wrapping to be completed without interruption. If both film rolls run out or tear, the film monitoring stops the wrapping process.
Transport
Drawbar & Lift axle
The drawbar is connected to the towing vehicle with a lower link hitch and swings out to the left or right up to 90°. This makes it easy to fill the hopper from all sides.
The lift axle with 380/55-R17 AW tires can be swiveled hydraulically and lowers into the working position to minimize the filling height into the bunker.
Control system
Program control PROFI with PROFI plus handset
The LT-Master F60 is operated with the PROFI plus L terminal. The user interface is structured intuitively and is easy to use. The entire work process as well as the machine settings are depicted via the display.
Materials suitable for baling
Corn
Corn silage is produced using the entire corn plant and serves as one of the most important staple feeds for livestock with high milk yields. Corn silage provides particularly nutritious energy in the form of starch from crushed corn grains and is also very rich in fiber. In this way, corn silage provides the optimal conditions for achieving maximum milk or fattening yields<br/>. Particularly at temperatures above 15 degrees Celsius, the feed can deteriorate in quality due to the high activity of microbacteria. The very high compression during the LT-Master F115 baling process achieves unmatched keeping and feed quality.
CCM
CCM (corn-cob-mix) is an excellent energy feed made from the cob and kernels of the corn cob. It is used to feed pigs, cattle, and other small ruminants. CCM silage offers the maximum energy concentration through additional starch and has an excellent price-performance ratio in comparison with traditional concentrated feed.
The crushing of corn grains gives the feed more structure and makes it very easy for livestock to pick up. Due to their compact shape, CCM silage bales are perfectly easy to handle and also ideally suited to feeding in smaller quantities.
Grass
Grass silage serves as the most important staple forage for livestock. The feed is made from an optimal combination of sweet grasses, herbs, and clover. Grass types with a high sugar content guarantee a good fermentation process.
Alfalfa
Alongside corn silage, alfalfa silage is one of the most important basic feed components in cattle feeding. High feed intake as well as particularly high structural effectiveness contributes to substantial cattle milk yields. The cultivation of alfalfa offers high yield security and also improves the quality of the soil. However, its low sugar content makes alfalfa very difficult to preserve using traditional methods. Processing into round bales using an LT-Master F60 significantly enhances the silage quality of alfalfa thanks to the rapid air-tight seal and effective compression.
Sugar beets
Pressed sugar beet pulp silages are characterized by a very high energy content, they are easily digestible, and impress with their palatability. They are an ideal supplement to grass silages since they have a negative ruminal nitrogen balance and thereby compensate for the protein balance in the stomach. Pressed beet pulp silages have very low lactic acid content and therefore also a very low total acidity. High compression as well as clean processing while still warm are hugely important for silage quality.
TMR – Total mixed ration
A TMR contains a balanced mix of staple forage and concentrated feed. Dry matter content and energy content are perfectly coordinated. TM rations have a very positive effect on milk yields and animal health. Already fermented silages are mixed and ensiled again for stockpiling TMR. The LT-Master F60 can be used to produce TMR inventory quickly, easily and inexpensively. It is transportable and therefore an ideal solution for trade.

Setup & preparation
One significant highlight of the LT-Master F115 is the short setup time of around three minutes. This is particularly important when it comes to the professional applications of contractors, who sometimes change location multiple times a day. The machine is set up completely hydraulically. The LT-Master F115 is ready for use in just a few simple steps.
Preparing the machine
Other time-eaters can also be taken care of quickly and easily thanks to optimized detailed solutions:
- Thanks to the quick-release fastener, the wrapping film can be replaced in a very short time.
- It is possible to change between a net and wide film in just a few simple steps.
- Thanks to the program control "PROFI" and the PROFI plus L terminal, the machine can be optimally matched to the material. A definite advantage: A real benefit control system interface
- Grease (8 l) and oil (16 l) can be topped up in the central lubrication with ease.
