Abstract
The invention discloses a pre-assembled self-supporting unit (1) for a twine wire forming section. The unit comprises an integrated save-all tray (25) and other integrated elements such as cross walkway (17), piping beam (10), connecting arms (8). The rolls (2) for supporting at least one forming clothing loop (4) and the other elements are mounted onto this separate unit instead of being mounted onto the same machine frame. The unit provides a diminished foot print for the forming section, and it is dimensioned to fit in a standard transport container.
