The Sukup Chain Loop Conveyor is a versatile, all-in-one material handling solution that allows for filling, unloading, blending, and transferring grain efficiently within one complete system. The design minimizes power consumption and is gentler on grain compared to traditional augers. The system can be installed vertically when the bins are aligned, or slanted when a separate unload system is used. A vertical loop works in a system where bin centers are aligned and the center sumps dump into the chain loop tube installed under the bin floor. A slanted loop is used in a system where the fronts of the bins are aligned and the external powerheads discharge into the chain loop tube.
The flexibility of Loop Systems makes them great for adding onto an existing site or incorporating into a new site. The system's robust construction includes replaceable, abrasion-resistant corners and square-to-round transitions, ensuring durability and longevity. Maintenance is made easy with a manual ACME thread take-up or gravity take-up on vertical systems, access for chain tightness adjustments, and access for inspecting chain and paddle wear. Additionally, the system can be customized with multiple drive-over dump hopper sizes, inlet hoppers, and gates under bins, making it a versatile choice for various material handling needs.
