Grain Handling & Conditioning
Our comprehensive grain storage solutions include advanced handling and conditioning systems to ensure safe and efficient grain management.
Chain Conveyor
- Highly efficient solutions depending on type of grain which is to be conveyed at required speed
- 300GSM. galvanized steel structure which is corrosion resistant. easy installation, maintenance and repair with bolted construction.
- special Bearings with oil seals are nodular cast iron and resists harsh negative ambient conditions,
- Linear UHMWPE bearing is used to reduce friction during the chain movement reducing resistance and encouraging silent operation.
- Grain level can be monitored through level monitoring windows on conveyors.
Bucket Elevator
- Bolted connection in the structure facilitates easy installation and maintenance.
- Use of engineering plastics in elevator buckets enables a smooth OPERATION
- Long-lasting use due to LOW resistance to wear, heat and corrosion.
- Centrifugal discharge efficiency is increased by making bucket selection as per the crop type and conveyance capacity.
- UHMW PE used to aid grain flow, this helps to increase wear resistance and replaceable.
- Heavy-duty roller bearings on drive heads and shafts hardened in stages helps to extend lifespan of moving parts.
- Removable drum, shaft connection and removable rubber coating on the drum provide ease in installation and maintenance.
- Latch covers for inspection provide ease during monitoring, maintenance and repair in case when necessary.
Belt Conveyor
- A belt conveyor system can be implemented with a very economical cost per foot of the conveyor for many warehouse and industrial applications. Because it includes just one motor and a simple belt system they are quite simple. Hence we design based on the requirement
Sweep Augers
- A spiral unloader or conveyor are used to unload crops on the silo base completely. These are specially designed equipment for extracting leftover inside the silo after grain is unloaded to a certain extent with its own flowing force. They can be manufactured from galvanized steel, painted steel or stainless steel as required by customers. The basic material is high grade steel. It conveys crops fast and smoothly without any problem. It is recommended for use twice or three times a year.
Advantage Over Warehouse
For the storage of paddy rice, warehouse storage has a lower initial cost vs. Silos. However, theinitial cost benefit is deceptive because warehouses could incur material losses in the form ofrodent, bird and insect infestation, absence of effective aeration systems and temperature monitoring system, which could give an early warning on grain spoilage. The manpower costs to maintain the ware house could be an expensive affair in long run.
On the contrary, a silo storage system in long run would be more economical, efficient ensuring the right product quality offered by silo subsystems such as temperature monitoring system monitoring grain temperature at various levels giving an indication of spoilage in case it happens, aeration system controlling grain humidity by restricting it within specified ranges
thereby preventing spoilage and maintain right quality, fumigation system which acts as a rodent
repellant thereby preventing contamination and grain spoilage.
In the long run the silos will make the rice miller more profit due to the reduction of spoilage and a better milling quality. Almost all modern rice mills today use silo storage.
