Abstract

A control system for an agricultural baler includes a controller configured to receive a bale wrap signal indicative of a type of a bale wrap. The controller is also configured to determine whether the bale wrap is segmented or continuous based on the type. Furthermore, the controller is configured to control a braking system to establish a tension force at a weakened section of the bale wrap sufficient to separate a first portion disposed about a bale from a second portion disposed about a shaft in response to determining the bale wrap is segmented and the weakened section is positioned between the shaft and the bale. In addition, the controller is configured to control a cutting system of the agricultural baler to cut the bale wrap in response to determining the bale wrap is continuous and a target section of the bale wrap is positioned at the cutting system.
