Abstract:
1. In a combination of a baler and bale wrapping apparatus for processing loads in the form of bales, wherein a given bale is movable between pre-selected first and second locations in the baler and bale wrapping apparatus, and an apparatus for measurement of the weight force of said given bale, and a measurement device connected to a data processing device provided for measuring a measurement parameter influenced by the weight force of said given bale, the improvement comprising: said measurement device being mounted at a fixed location in said baler and bale wrapping apparatus and disposed such that the signal which it develops depends on the weight force of said given bale both for when said given bale is disposed in said first location and when said given bale is disposed in said second location; and said processing device being set up to calculate the weight force of said given bale taking into account a first signal output from the measurement device when said given bale is in said first location and a second signal output from the measurement device when said given bale is in said second location.
