The TamaWrap® are compressed and can be sold to recyclers in the area, an extra income for the gin.

The TamaWrap® is fed into the John Deere On Board Module cotton harvester.
The wrap portion is fed around the module by the feeding mechanism.
The Z-LOCK™ is activated to seperate the wrap from the roll and to secure the tail of the wrap.
The round module is ejected from the John Deere On Board Module cotton harvester to the handler while the harvesting continues.
The round module is placed at the end of the row.

Module trucks: As modules wrapped with TamaWrap® Blue may squat more, when using module trucks module diameter should not exceed 100 inches (254 CM). Thus, maximum recommended harvester monitor set size is 92”, If larger than 100”, further reduce the set size.
Insure that recommended chains are used on module trucks. It is HIGHLY recommended to use appropriate chains while using module trucks, in order to minimize the risk of damaged modules and decrease the risk of contamination.
Other trucks: make sure there are no sharp edges or other sharp objects which may cause tears in modules.

The recommended lift capacity: 4,400 lbs (2 tons) forklift.

TamaWrap® Storage Requirements are as follows: Store under roof in an enclosed structure and avoid exposure to sunlight and moisture while stored. Double stacking of pallets is permissible with proper handling equipment. Please note that TamaWrap® is to be used within two seasons.

As a general recommendation - Handle the module with care and do not allow the module to drag on the ground or on stalks during staging.
When using spear loaders - Do not allow module to drag on the ground when inserting or withdrawing spears.
When using rear and front loaders - Make sure arms are completely on the ground before opening and closing to avoid “over squeezing".

Every TamaWrap+® includes 4 RFID tags to provide unique identification to each module. This unique identification enables full traceability of individual modules through harvesting and processing:
With TamaWrap+® technology, you can trace your modules from the field, through the gin’s gateway, scale and yard- to the feeder floor. Tracing allows association of the ginned bale related data - back to the seed cotton module and back to the field. Also, the technology is integrated with John Deere Harvest ID, Cotton Pro and the John Deere Operations Center.

Examine module carefully PRIOR to unwrapping / cutting and remove any and ALL loose pieces of plastic and other potential contaminants.
Gins that cut wrap: Use the Tama Cut Indicator™ to locate the recommended cutting zone (3 feet / 1 meter) from the Tama Cut Indicator™, with the direction of the arrows. Make ONE clean cut across the module, rather than several short cuts. Make certain ALL pieces of wrap are removed after unwrapping/cutting.

Proper module staging impacts the ability and reliability of module truck pickup and subsequent ginning. Make sure to follow the proper procedure for staging cotton modules for pickup by properly equipped module trucks or moon buggies. Failure to follow these instructions can adversely affect the integrity of the modules.
Modules should be staged on a high flat surface. Staging on well-defined flat driveways or a flat disked surface is optimal.
When choosing a staging location, ask yourself “Can a module truck retrieve from this location after a significant amount of rain?”
If a module truck tires and/or tracks have to slip to gather the load, damage may occur to the underside of the module due to relative chain slip.
If at all possible do not stage modules on top of rows or beds or internal portion of field where module truck access will be difficult. Modules will take the shape of the surface they are placed on. Setting on beds or uneven surfaces requires digging into the ground with the module truck chain to safely get under the entire surface of the module.

A proper module truck loading and unloading of round modules impacts the ability and reliability of subsequent ginning of these modules. Be sure to share this important information with all truck drivers and use the following check list to verify they have the proper equipment to handle the modules:
Module trucks with 12 bed chains must have inside eight chains replaced with Stover RMS chain to prevent damage to the module plastic wrap.
Module trucks with 11 bed chains must have inside seven chains replaced with Stover RMS chain to prevent damage to the module plastic wrap.
As a final check, nonStover RMS chain is only allowed within 17 in. (43 cm) of module truck inside wall surfaces.
If chain tail wheels are the sprocket style, paddle style with sharp points, or narrower than 2 in. (5 cm), replace with wide smooth paddle style tail wheels.
For moon buggys, enough strands of chains must be replaced to the middle of the width to accommodate a 1.5 m (5 ft.) flat portion of a module, regardless of the side to side placement of the module. As with a module truck, no more than 17 in. (43 cm) of non-Stover RMS chain is allowed from the extreme inside width of the moon buggy to prevent damage to the plastic wrap.
Verify accurate synchronization of truck or moon buggy bed to ground speed per manufacturer’s owner’s manual.
Many module trucks have the chain speed biased to run slightly faster than the ground speed. This is not permissible with round modules and will cause cutting on the underside of the modules during loading and unloading.
Do not attempt to load round modules if not properly staged.
Verify that module group and individual modules have been identified per farmer and gin instructions before loading.
Do not add 2”x 4” boards or other spacers to the troughs in between the module truck bed chains. The spacers will increase the friction between the underside of the module and the truck bed and can cause wrap damage.
Daily inspect for and remove any sharp edges on the module truck side panels or other areas where round modules can contact.
Rubber or steel cleat tracks are highly recommended when handling round modules in wet or sandy conditions.

Unlike the traditional square modules which can be transport only by module trucks, TamaWrap® maintains the module’s round shape with minimum expansion - allowing transport to the gin with various transportation means such as flatbed truck, Stover truck, road train and more.
Recommendations are: Standard Module Truck, Flatbed Truck or a Road Train.

Check if any of the metal fingers of the duckbill are in contact with the picker belts. Adjust if needed. Then, confirm front set of wrap floor belts are adjusted and functioning properly.

Five rolls of 24 individual TamaWrap® are each manually loaded by two people onto the John Deere On Board Module cotton harvester.
To ensure correct installation of the TamaWrap® on the JD On Board Module cotton harvester, every core is marked on its left hand side with black dots or blue stripe on the core and a label inside the core.

Tama ‘Zebra pattern’ is an indicator to clearly show one side of the roll from the other, to assist in correct roll loading for baling, and to help identify which way the bale will un-roll when feeding. That’s cutting-edge baling innovation.

TamaCycle Netwrap is designed to provide both eco-friendliness and high performance. It maintains its performance standards while being environmentally conscious. You can expect reliable baling results without compromising on durability, making it a valuable choice for eco-conscious baling operations.

TamaCycle Netwrap is a first-of-its-kind, high-performance, recycled eco-baling solution. It’s designed to reduce the environmental impact of baling while maintaining excellent performance. It features less plastic per bale because of the lighter rolls and the percentage of recycled content that it contains. The packaging also includes between 40% - 100% percent recycled material and is easy to recognize by its black and green Zebra pattern.

TamaCycle Netwrap offers several environmental benefits, including using less plastic per bale, reducing the weight of the netwrap, and incorporating high percentages of post-industrial waste recycled content throughout its manufacturing process. The packaging also includes various percentage from 40% to 100% post-consumer recycled material, making it the perfect eco-friendly choice for baling.

Tama netwraps are available in lengths from 2,000m to 4,500m. All types and brands of Tama netwrap have a guaranteed minimum length, using European measuring method with stamp of approval. competitor nets, working on a plus or minus tolerance, and not minimum length, based on our continuance benchmarking, are on average 8% less than their declared length.

The real question you should ask is ‘what is the cost per bale’. Tama’s stronger net, guaranteed minimum length, mesh lock closing effect, ‘edge to edge’ covering, and trouble-free baling combine to give you an unbeatable cost per bale! For a clear breakdown of how your cost per bale is lower when buying Tama netwrap, contact your Tama local salesperson.

When using Round Bale Netwrap, a few moments must be taken to ensure correct preparation of your machine in order to achieve the best results. The most common problems of net splitting, tearing, or fouling on feed rollers arise from the net ‘laddering’, where threads become broken, leading to a running stitch in the net running opposite to the direction of the net, eventually causing the net to separate where the ‘ladder’ has occurred. This can be caused by many different and varying circumstances but will always have the same ‘ladder’ effect.
Check that the area in which the roll sits is free from dirt and debris. Ensure that all metal surfaces the net comes into contact with are free from rust or sharp edges or weld spots (net box sides, spreader bars and rollers etc.), or dried paint ‘lumps’ on any surfaces which could damage the net. Clean up with emery paper if necessary. Also, check that the path for the net to the bale behind the feed mechanism is not dirty or rusty, which could restrict the net’s passage when feeding – often identified by a ‘lump’ of net at the start of the wrapping cycle. This is especially important when starting baling after winter storage.
Ensure the net is threaded correctly. Incorrect feeding of the net will cause incorrect tension being applied, leading to feeding and cutting difficulties which, in turn, will cause problems on subsequent net feed cycles. Where the net is fed through a series of fixed tension bars, always make sure these are clean and polished to avoid excessive friction. Excessive net friction or an uneven surface will cause the net to tear.
Where two rollers are used to feed the net, it is imperative these are correctly aligned and tensioned against one another, to enable the net to feed in evenly and under the correct tension. Incorrectly aligned rollers will produce a corresponding uneven net feed and subsequent cutting action at the end of the wrapping cycle. This will result in poor bale coverage and possible net fouling on the feed rollers at the start of the next cycle. The rollers’ surface should also be closely inspected for abrasions or damage, which could snag the net when feeding.
Ensure the feed rollers are clean of any moisture or residue. Never use an aggressive cleaning agent such as petrol or turpentine to clean rubber rollers.
Always dust rubber rollers down with French chalk or talc powder when loading a new roll of Netwrap, or use anti-static spray to reduce net static when operating. This avoids the net fouling and wrapping around the rollers when feeding in.
Carefully inspect the condition of the belt joiners on variable chamber balers for damage or worn connections, as this will snag the net and cause a tear, which will split the net on the bale.
Make sure the knife or cutting surface is clean and undamaged. Poor cutting action will result in an uneven ‘tail’ to the net, which can become tangled in the rollers and feed mechanism.

Original Edge to Edge coverage, from Tama’s Edge to Edge patent and more meters per roll at the same weight as ‘traditional’ netwrap, that means: more bales per roll, less roll changeovers, less rolls needed to store, less plastic used to bale the same number of bales, and a better cost per bale. Tama net is weight optimized but stronger.

The diameter, and width, of all Tama nets will allow it to fit comfortably into the feeding box of all baler types. Tama nets are developed and approved with all the leading OEM’s around the world, to ensure full compatibility.

We guarantee a minimum net strength. Yes. As well as constant checks during production. Regular benchmark comparative tests are showing on average our net is 17% stronger than competitors’ nets.

Most baler chambers are between 117cm and 123cm. Tama’s netwrap is 1.23m wide and designed to cover the bale from edge to edge, in all round balers, often covering a bit more, and is better than most 1.25cm netwraps.

Round baling with Netwrap is the most convenient and least expensive way of wrapping your bale. Wrapping with Netwrap reduces costs by being faster than using twine and offers much better protection to the crop than twine ever could.
The main points include:
Less wear and tear on the baler
Fewer revolutions of the bale are needed when net wrapping, dramatically reducing wear and tear on the baler.
Greater speed of operation
Netwrap needs fewer revolutions, reducing the wrapping time and allowing up to 15-20 more bales per hour.
Better coverage on the bale
Net wrapped bales maintain a more uniform shape, making transporting and handling easier, particularly important when wrapping silage bales on an automatic bale wrapper. Bale coverage from edge to edge is also essential when silage wrapping, eliminating air from the bale to ensure better quality forage.
Better weathering capability
Net wrapped bales offer much better weathering capability, allowing outdoor storage and reducing loss from crop wastage.
Easier to remove
Opening a net wrapped bale is a simple and straight-forward operation. The use of net eliminates the difficult and tiresome task of removing baler twine, especially in frosty conditions, and is also less likely to be picked up by livestock or machinery.

This depends upon bale diameter and crop type, Tama has recommendations on how many wraps should be applied, which can be found on the sleeve, in the booklet attached to the roll, and on our website www.tama.co.il.

Tama Cycle Netwrap is a first-of-its-kind, high-performance, recycled eco-baling solution. It’s designed to reduce the environmental impact of baling while maintaining excellent performance. It features less plastic per bale because​​ of the lighter rolls and the percentage of recycled content that it contains. ​ The packaging also includes between 40% - 100% percent recycled material and is easy to recognize by its black and green Zebra pattern.

Tama Cycle Netwrap offers several environmental benefits, including using less plastic per bale, reducing the weight of the netwrap, and incorporating high percentages of post-industrial waste change to recycled content throughout its manufacturing process.

Yes, there are generally 3 types of knotters:
1. Double Knotter: A double knotter style, which makes 2 Deering knots in each twine in each knotting cycle.
2. Single Knotter: A single knotter style, which makes 1 Cormick or looped single knot in each twine in each knotting cycle.
3. Combination Double Knotter: A double knotter which makes a combination of a Cormick or loop knot and a standard Deering knot in each knotting cycle.

Yes, some competitors use other plastics and additives that typically degrade the performance of the twine, either while being used in a baler or while bales are being stored. To ensure your using the best quality twines, choose Tama, a manufacturer you can trust.

Yes, the amount of flakes per bale affects bale density, bale shape and can put more or less stress on the twine.
Lower flakes per bale (<30) puts added stress on the twine, due to the faster rate of expansion when pushed from the chamber.
Very high flakes per bale (+45) can put less stress on the twine, but can lead to less dense bales.

There are many national and local collection schemes throughout Europe, which aide in the collection and transportation of used agricultural plastics, including baler twine. For more information, please contact your local Tama representative. Also, be sure to separate your different types of plastics, in order to help us in the sorting process.

Cost per pound only considers the weight of plastic within a spool of twine but does not factor in the density or runnage of the twine, which can vary greatly from one manufacturer to another. This comparison can only be used if the two twines being compared are of identical runnage.

Cost per square bale, based on an average bale length, compares an equal amount of twine needed to make one square bale and the associated cost of twine for each bale.

Cost per 1,000 feet compares an equal length of twine, regardless of the density or runnage of the twine, for an equal length comparison.

The twine should unwind from the center of the spool in a counterclockwise direction. If the twine unwinds in a clockwise direction, the spool and/ or the label is upside-down.

The short answer: Many more bales! If we look at one example: We produce our standard Tama Twine+ 4,000’/ 650, which would make approximately 895 (3X4X8’) bales. If the new John Deere XtraTwine+ with IMPAX Technology 4,800’/ 700 spools were used, an operator could make approximately 1,074 bales per baler load. That’s an increase of 179 more bales in every baler load of IMPAX Twine!

No. Like many of Tama’s innovative products, other manufacturers try to replicate the cutting-edge products that Tama produces, but they are unable to achieve a similar end result in their products. Genuine Since IMPAX technology twines contain up to 40% more twine in every spool, compared to standard twines, the cost per spool or cost per pound may seem relatively expensive. But don’t forget that each spool or each pound of twine can actually make many more bales than standard twines. This is where calculating the cost per 1,000’ feet or cost per square bale is key, to make a fair comparison. If you need assistance, please contact one of our Tama Assist experts and we’ll be happy to help. Technology is the only advanced twine on the market that increases efficiency and productivity to a whole new level.

Yes! Tama has partnered with a revolutionary plastic recycler in the Netherlands, called Healix. Together, we’ve perfected the process to recycle used twine from Europe and successfully incorporate the Post Consumer Resin (PCR), back into what we call TamaCycle twine products. Tama Cycle Twine contains at least 30% PCR & closes the loop, in a full circle, multiple lifespan, sustainable product.

Within Tama, we incorporate additional PCR polypropylene into other products such as netwrap cradles, end bungs, carrying handles and other packaging components. In addition, the excess PCR material helps to reduce the plastic impact within the automotive and construction industries in what’s called an open loop process.

It depends… Double tie knotters tie an upper and lower twine together, so it’s recommended to use the same twine in the upper and lower twines, to reduce knot slippage and mis-ties. If the upper and lower twines are the same, each knotter can theoretically use a different twine, but the knotters need to be adjusted to accept the different twines. Tama recommends using the same, high quality twine on both the upper and lower twines, to prevent any issues in the field.

The first baler knotting system was patented by John Appleby in 1878 in the USA.
Since then, some modifications have been made by various engineers, but the concept largely remains the same.

IMPAX Technology twines provide noticeable advantages to any Large Square Baling operation. Due to the twine’s reduced diameter, we are able to provide many more meters per spool, which increases the number of bales an operator can make with each baler load of twine. The smaller diameter of the twine also reduces common tying issues experienced in the field, while reducing the wear and tear on the tying system components in the baler. Couple this with a large reduction in the amount of plastic used per bale or per season, you are helping to reduce your carbon footprint in your own operation.

No, there can be many differences from one manufacturer to another, based on many factors. Even within Tama, we manufacture many different types of twines, with different specifications, for each application.

Like all makes of twine, some balers may require slight adjustment to obtain the best knotting performance between different twine types and producers.

Tama twine performs well with all makes and models of large square balers, when matched to the correct application, in a properly adjusted and maintained baler. For additional information and support, please visit Tama Assist

Tama twines are manufactured using the most advanced equipment and techniques, with higher specification resins, which create strong twine without excess thickness. This means Tama twine is less bulky than a traditional twine of equivalent strength, which enables more stable and secure knots. For help in choosing the right twine for your application, please feel free to contact your nearest Tama representative. Or check out our resources at Tama Assist .

Calculate the amount of twine needed per bale. Bale length (X2) + bale height (X2) x number of knotters (4, 5, 6 or 8 knotters depending on baler) = total amount of twine used per bale.

Example:

Bale Length: 2.4 meters
Bale Height: 0.9 meters
# of Knotters: 6

((2.4 X 2) + (0.9 X 2)) X 6 = 39.6 meters of twine needed per bale.

We also recommend adding some additional length for the twine needed for each knot on the bale. (1.2m additional length for a double knotter; 0.6m additional length for a single knotter, per bale)

39.6m of twine per bale + 1.2m additional length for knots in a double knotter baler = 40.8m of twine needed per bale.

Tama twine guarantees the stated length of the spools & packs of twine, for your peace of mind during your buying decisions.

Estimate the number of spools needed:

Length per pack: 2200 meters
Length of twine needed per bale: /40.8 meters
# of square bales per pack = 53 square bales per pack

Before Tama introduces any new product to the market, we invest many years & thousands of hours in the field to perfect the product for our end users to be proud to use our products. IMPAX Technology is no different. After over 5 years of development and millions of bales made all over the globe, we are confident that IMPAX Technology can improve nearly any operation.

In many cases operators are able to increase their efficiency by making heavier bales using IMPAX Technology twines. Heavier bales reduce the amount of twine consumed during a season, reduce transportation costs and reduce the amount of storage needed to protect the same amount of crop. Please contact your local expert to learn more about how we can hep you make heavier bales and increase your overall efficiency.

Yes, Tama R&D works closely with all OEM’s (Original Equipment Manufacturers) engineering departments to test, validate and approve the use of the right twines for each application, taking the guesswork out of the equation, when using Tama Twines.

Who makes knotters …
CLAAS – validated with UCF
AGCO (Massey Ferguson, Hesston & Fendt) validated with AGCO
Raaspe – knotters for CNH, Krone, Kuhn

All OEM’s use Tama Twine for their knotter setup and testing!

Yes! Tama is proud to introduce TamaTwine with IMPAX Technology inside! This revolutionary & patented technology combines a smaller twine diameter with unique shock absorbing characteristics, which protects the knots from breaking, improves knotting performance and increases efficiency, all while reducing the amount of plastic needed for the season.

Each operator has their preferred type of knot.
The most ideal knot should be compact and easily pass through the guides and tensioners, without coming un-tied.
In addition, make sure the twines are routed properly within the baler, per the manufacturer's instructions provided with the baler.
A few common knots for connecting spools may be square knots, reef knots, surgeon’s knots or fisherman’s knots, among others.

Standard Tama twines are manufactured to be able to fit in common balers with smaller twine boxes.
Tama extended length spools offer many more meters per spool, but are intended for modern balers with larger twine boxes.

Twine should unwind from the centre of the spool in a counter-clockwise direction.
If the twine unwinds in a clockwise direction, the spool is upside-down.

IMPAX Technology was first developed for high density large square balers, since the twine was becoming increasingly thick to hold denser bales together, we found a new way to combine strength, while providing a smaller diameter twine. We now offer multiple types of heavy twines with IMPAX Technology – from standard density to ultra-high density large square bales, we’ve got you covered.

The color of the twine has no impact on the strength or knotting performance.
Many advancements in raw material and color pigment carriers have reduced the differences in how different colors perform in a baler.
Not all manufacturers use high quality color additives, but with Tama, you know what to expect, consistency and reliability.

Since IMPAX technology twines contain up to 40% more twine in every spool, compared to standard twines, the cost per spool or cost per pound may seem relatively expensive. But don’t forget that each spool or each pound of twine can actually make many more bales than standard twines. This is where calculating the cost per 1,000’ feet or cost per square bale is key, to make a fair comparison. If you need assistance, please contact one of our Tama Assist experts and we’ll be happy to help.

Yes, Tama twine can be stored outside.
We use higher than average amounts of UV stabilizer to protect the twine from UV degradation.
Although, for long term storage, we recommend storing all agricultural plastics inside, whenever possible.
Protecting your investment will pay off in the long run.

Yes, moisture and crop type greatly affect the ‘stress’ on the twine while baling.
More springy crops, such as straw and grain hay put much more stress on twine during baling.
Changes in moisture can also affect the amount of compaction the crop can sustain in a bale and for the twine to maintain bale integrity.
Be sure to consult with a Tama Twine expert, to help you make the best choice for your application.

Yes, careful handling of the spools will ensure that the twine will perform properly in the baler.
If damaged spools are used in a baler, they may cause tying problems and damage to some components in the tying system.

Fibrillation is the name to describe the fine mesh-like appearance of the twine when un-twisted.
It is a part of the production process designed to make twine softer and more flexible to assist with tighter knot formation & knot holding capability.
Quality fibrillation allows the twine to perform seamlessly in the tying system of the baler.

Tensile strength is the maximum breaking force of a specific twine, without a knot, when measured while being pulled between two opposing drums.
Knot strength describes the maximum measured strength a twine containing a knot can achieve, before breaking while being pulled between two opposing drums.

Calculate the amount of twine needed per bale. Bale length (X2) + bale height (X2) x number of knotters (4, 5, 6 or 8 knotters depending on baler) = total amount of twine used per bale.

Example:

Bale Length: 2.4 meters
Bale Height: 0.9 meters
# of Knotters: 6

((2.4 X 2) + (0.9 X 2)) X 6 = 39.6 meters of twine needed per bale.

We also recommend adding some additional length for the twine needed for each knot on the bale. (1.2m additional length for a double knotter; 0.6m additional length for a single knotter, per bale)

39.6m of twine per bale + 1.2m additional length for knots in a double knotter baler = 40.8m of twine needed per bale.

Tama twine guarantees the stated length of the spools & packs of twine, for your peace of mind during your buying decisions.

Estimate the number of spools needed:

Length per pack: 2200 meters
Length of twine needed per bale: /40.8 meters
# of square bales per pack = 53 square bales per pack

In many cases operators are able to increase their efficiency by making heavier bales using IMPAX Technology twines. Heavier bales reduce the amount of twine consumed during a season, reduce transportation costs and reduce the amount of storage needed to protect the same amount of crop. Please contact your local expert to learn more about how we can hep you make heavier bales and increase your overall efficiency.
