The historical HPA table’s width-by-height entry does not state a bale length. Its separate feature description says that package-block length can be set, but it does not supply a numerical setting range. Keep those two source statements together instead of turning a two-number entry into a complete three-dimensional bale specification.
Read the column heading with the model row
Nanyuan’s historical HPA series catalog labels its bale-size column W × H in millimetres. The HPA125A row gives 1100 × 1100; the HPA100B row gives 1000 × 1100. These are width-and-height entries in that source, not three equal dimensions or a declared length range.
The same page states that the package-block length can be set. That feature sentence identifies a separate dimension requiring clarification. It does not establish a minimum, maximum, increment or tolerance for a machine being quoted today. The page’s footer copyright year should not be treated as the issue date of a current engineering specification.
Show the missing axis explicitly
| Historical reference | What the table supplies | What it leaves open |
|---|---|---|
| HPA125A | Width × height: 1100 × 1100 mm | Numerical bale length and any allowable range |
| HPA100B | Width × height: 1000 × 1100 mm | Numerical bale length and any allowable range |
| Series feature sentence | Length-setting functionality is described historically | Current model-specific setting and achieved-output limits |
When transferring the information into a comparison, retain a separate length field marked “not stated in this source.” Do not fill it with the width, a hopper dimension or a preferred transport length. Each would add a number that the cited field does not provide.
Distinguish a setting from an accepted output
The buyer’s desired length, the supplier’s confirmed setting range and a measured finished bale are three different records. A requested length expresses the project need. A documented setting range describes a proposed configuration. An observed dimension belongs to the actual material and conditions under which it was measured.
Ask the responsible technical parties how the finished output will be assessed and when the measurement applies. If the receiving facility has a maximum envelope or other dimensional rule, supply its actual requirement. Do not invent a tolerance or assume that a selectable value guarantees the same finished result for every feed stream.
Ask for the current HPA proposal, not an amended archive
The current HPA-125A listing provides a model reference and directs buyers to request a current drawing and data sheet. Use that route to identify the machine actually proposed. The historical row is a question to reconcile with the current documents, not a specification to silently copy into a new order.
Request the applicable length-setting range, how the supplier expresses any increment or adjustment limit, and the evidence supporting the required finished length for the identified material. Ask which drawing and quotation revision contain the answer. This is a documentation request, not an instruction for changing settings or operating the baler.
Keep unrelated conclusions out of the size comparison
A two-axis entry does not establish bale volume, density, weight or throughput. Likewise, a length-setting statement does not establish the tying mechanism, degree of automation or equipment included in the offer. Those questions need their own configuration-specific answers; the historical catalog contains wording that should not be expanded into an automatic-tying promise.
Send the model reference, required width-height-length envelope, material description and receiving requirement through Nanyuan’s contact page. Ask the supplier to identify which dimensions are supported by current documents and which still require review. The useful result is an explicit missing-axis answer, not an apparently complete size assembled from unrelated fields.
