The efficient operation of every grain elevator, collection point, and storage facility begins with grain reception. Equally crucial is the task of obtaining an objective and rapid quality assessment of the incoming grain.
As a solution for sampling from trucks during reception, the Stork 440 Compact automated sampler is a high-quality system that can be implemented at your facility as early as this season.
The Stork 440 Compact sampler is an affordable, proven solution for 24/7 operation and a wide temperature range. The Stork 440 Compact sampler is designed with increased structural and drive safety and is therefore designed to operate with a service life of more than 10 years.
The sampler is more efficient when the laboratory uses Infratec 1241 or Infratec Nova grain quality analyzers. In this case, the machine processing speed is from 3 to 6 minutes. 10-20 machines per hour. 240-500 machines with grain per day.
The working area for the Stork 440 Compact is just right for standard trucks without a trailer. In the case of a trailer, additional movement of the truck will be required to take samples from the trailer
At the user's choice, the Stork 440 Compact sampler can be equipped with one of 3 sampler probe options (immersed part). Accordingly, for each design, the length can be further increased.
The algorithm of samplers with pneumatic sample supply/removal starts sampling only after immersion in the grain. Thus, the sample taken 100% reflects the composition and does not distort the qualitative composition of the sample at any sampling depth.
Now you have a specific and inexpensive solution for your company. The solution will work effectively and reliably this year, but most importantly, it has long been tested in Ukraine and has received many confirmations. If you want to see the system in action, call us and we will select the nearest company that has long had such a competitive advantage.
