1. Five (5) points of support on turntable:
Four heavy duty rollers add stability
and support to the perimeter of the
turntable in addition to the main
central shaft. This allows Tanco
wrappers to safely wrap tha heaviest
silage bales on rough or uneven
ground.
2. Single solid belt on turntable: The
single belt enables Tanco wrappers to
effectively wrap misshapen or soggy
bates providing a positive aurtaca for
bale rotation.
3. Adjustable extendable axle: On trailed
models the extendable axle provides a
wide, stable wheel base when loading
bales. Eliminates the need for countar
. weights.
4. Top rollers on turntable: Extra rollers
provide security to keep bales In place
when wrapping at high RPM's (25) or
on uneven terrain.
5. Unloading ramp on trailed models:
The ramp allows bales to be unloaded
gently. When a wrapped bale falls
hard It can "burp". Once it “burps"
the bale does not re-seal. The ramp
gives a smooth transition between the
ground and turntable.
6. Turntable braking System: When
unloading wrapped bales Its Important
that tha turntable doesn't move out of
position. A twisted turntable can
offload a bale crooked, exposing It to
possible tearing of plastic on frame
parts. Tanco machines are equipped
with a braking system that holds the
turntable In place when unloading
bales.

7■ Film Indexing system: As temperature
rises, plastic stretches more. To
ensure proper overlap and complete
coverage when it's hot outside, Tanco
machines are equipped with an ex
clusive, simple, Indexing system to
compenstate for those times. The
operator can eliminate potential
“windows" In the wrapping procedure.
O. Positive bale positioning: while being
wrapped, bales are rotated the exact
distance required to obtain optimum
coverage.
9. Durability: Tanco's subframe Is the
heaviest of any machine available In
North America. The low profile design
keeps silage bales closer to the ground

"Off-flavors affect many dairy
products, including butter, Ched
dar and cottage cheese and ice
cream,” says Sidney E. Barnard,
professor of food science. "The
dairy industry can prevent and
eventually eliminate most flavor
defects.”
Barnard supervised evaluations
of store-purchased dairy products
made by students in dairy product
judging classes and the Penn State
Dairy Product Judging Team.
“Evaluations done by students and
judging team members over the
past two years indicate that the
majority of defects originate with
milk or dairy ingredients.”
The evaluations found that 60
percent of the 62 butter samples,
mostly USDA Grade AA, had
stale, soapy or tallowy tastes.
More than 90 percent of those 37
pronounced flavor defects were
due to old cream, rancidity or
oxidation.
“Preventing these problems is a
matter of changing current hand
ling practices among dairy pro
ducers. processors, store employ
ees and consumers,” Barnard says.
Forty-six percent, or 48 of 10S
packages, of Cheddar cheese sam
ples had pronounced flavor
defects.“ These defects caused the
cheese to taste fruity, fermented,
bitter, soapy, tart or like sulfide,"
Barnard says.
Extension faculty and students
purchased 346 samples of vanilla
Competition - None.

ice cream during 1992. “Ninety
five samples, or 27 percent, had
pronounced flavor defects,” Ber
nard says. “These defects made
the ice cream taste tallowy. Stu
dents reported that some samples
tasted like graham crackers or
cardboard.” Barnard believes that
more than 60 percent of these off
flavors originated in dairy ingre
dients that were old, oxidized or
contained whey.
Barnard and trained students
evaluated 126 creamed cottage
cheese samples, most of which
contained 4 percent milkfat.
“Forty-three samples, or 34 per
cent, had pronounced flavor
defects,” he says. “These defects
made the samples taste soapy,
stale, bitter, fruity or fermented.
Over 85 percent of these defects
probably originated in the milk or
during processing.”
Nearly all pronounced dairy
product flavor defects can be pre
vented. “The key is to keep pro
cessing plants and their employees
informed and trained in the latest
sanitation and processing tech
niques,” Barnard says. “The chal
lenge before the dairy industry is
to reduce defects and improve
consumer acceptance.”
