Abstract
Layers of fibrous material are deposited in a bale forming chamber in continuous folded-like arrangement. The deposition and compaction of the subsequent folded-like layers is accomplished in a continuous process in which the bale forming chamber and the feeder-compactor mechanism perform a reversing-oscillating motion relative to each other imparting the necessary forces and displacement on the fibrous material to form rectangular bales with sufficiently high density.
