Grain Pumps (Chain Loops) and Versaloops
Speeding up and easing grain handling is ever more important today with the capacity of modern day Combine Harvesters, to meet this challenge the Grain Pump system which was developed in the USA over 40 years ago and offers a rugged, reliable and simple closed loop design to move grain into, between or out-load silos using just one motor drive. It can also be used to fill and empty floor stores as well.
At the heart of the system is a very heavy duty chain and paddle inside heavy duty galvanized tubes which work around a four corner system.
Diameters are 6”, 8”, 10”, 12” & 16” (160mm, 200mm, 250mm, 300mm & 400mm)
Systems can be combined with the latest JEMA dry pit intake systems and DMC silo stirrer machines to give fast and simple in-bin drying, allow for a speedy turnaround of trailers and reduce the amount of man-power needed at the farm during harvest time.
