AT HARVEST TIME, many grain elevators temporarily store grain on the ground. We built and serviced large tractor-mounted augers for
many years and noticed the large amount of grain damage caused by the over-sped augers and the high maintenance required for the
equipment.
Everyone seemed to be satisfied with this except for a custom operator who was dissatisfied with the maintenance problems. He needed
a maintenance-free, high-capacity, gentle machine.
We designed a 36" belt conveyor with a large-diameter, low RPM delivery auger. We mounted this system on a new idea Uni-System tractor.
The multi-purpose power unit carries and powers the loading conveyor perfectly.
Over the years we have improved this machine by increasing the capacity and efficiency.
- The climate-controlled cab and swivel seating ensure safe, efficient operation.
- Control the height and speed of the auger and conveyor separately with a high-volume double pump manipulated with levers.
- Handle more than 300 granular bushels per minute, and move bags with ease.
- Lower the conveyor to get through low doors, or fold it down flat for transport, servicing, or use as a package conveyor.
- Drive with two or four-wheel drive at any speed up to 14mph.
- A nationwide network ensures accessible, quick service.

SPECIFICATIONS.
Auger: 9' or 12' long, 24" dia., 3/8" thick hard-surfaced auger, hydraulicly-driven
through an oil-bath chain box. Conveyor: 36" chevron-cleated, 3/8" thick 3-ply belt on B Series ball bearing idlers.
Head Drive: Minimum tension, higher-capacity, longer belt life using an infinitely-variable speed direct drive orbit motor drive
to a lagged cone pulley. Operator's platform: Offset for excellent visibility of auger unit and discharge for working around obstructions and
aeration tubes. Lift Frame: Scissor-life design places conveyor hinge high and back for
ideal weight distribution. Straight-line push to the auger unit eliminates gauging and bouncing. Operates at 6 to 16 feet and can be folded
down flat. Hydraulic Power Unit: Pump unit is connected to the tractor PTO shaft with a universal joint drive. 50-gallon reservoir
, large diameter oil supply lines and high-displacement motors allow you to run at low oil temperature. |
