How It Works LoadingThe Grain Bags are filled by our specially designed Grain Bag Loader equipment that can be filled from the combine, grain cart or similar types of machinery. The loading capacity of the filling machine is about 24,000 bushels per hour depending on the grain type. The bags are designed to stretch to a maximum of 10% measured during the filling process to prevent overfilling. The equipment is designed for ease in use, fast set up, roller speed control and easy road transportation. While in Storage Once the grain is bagged, the bag consumes the available oxygen and produces carbon dioxide, thus suppressing the respiratory process and assuring an optimum preservation. This new atmosphere keeps stable over time, preventing the development and proliferation of fungi and insects as well as the increase in grain temperature. Some grains can be stored in airtight bags at slightly higher moisture levels than what is considered safe for storage in bins. Unloading The Grain Bag is emptied by our Grain Bag Unloader equipment that rolls the bag up as it augers the grain out at the rate of 8500 bushels per hour or 1000 bushels of corn in 7 minutes. The pull-type design of the Grain Bag Unloader has hydraulic roller drive for more precise bag roll up speed, comes complete with hoses, cylinders and couplers, and removable hopper for bag clean-up. |
