was one of our early models
installed in 1972.
Over the years, the dampening
conveyor has been developed to
be an effective and efficient
machine that adds value to under
moisture grain.

you can save large amounts of
money, why should you give away
your hard-earned profits for
nothing! Oil extraction companies
can refuse to take oil seed rape at
moistures of less than 6%, using a
dampening conveyor can help
ensure you have marketable
product.
A typical example:
Wheat at a spot price of £159.00
per tonne at 12% moisture
content, add 2% weight by adding
moisture and add value of £3.18
per tonne - meaning that per 1000
tonne of wheat you gain
£3,180.00*.

system comprises of a self-
contained 415V pump unit with
suction hose, filter & delivery hose,
a dampening auger with
galvanised casing & spray bars
