Sukup Manufacturing Co. Adds Double Run Conveyor to Their Grain Handling Line


Sukup Manufacturing has rounded out their grain handling line with a piece of equipment that is making a lot of farmers say “finally!” The Sukup Double Run Conveyor can replace a roof auger, transfer auger, dryer take-away auger and even a permanently installed transport auger. A Double Run Conveyor is different from other grain handling products because of its simplicity. It is extremely easy to install in any operation, and set-up time is cut in half because Sukup does most of the work for you. Your Sukup Double Run Conveyor will arrive at the site with pre-attached tubes, chains and paddles.

In a Double Run Conveyor, grain flows through the bottom tube and the chain and paddles return in the top tube. This method of conveying is efficient, easy on the grain and generates better overall grain quality. With different sizes to choose from, you can build a system that fits your operation. The Double Run is similar to the Chain Loop Conveyor and they work so well together that many operators are utilizing both conveyors in their set-ups. Double Run Conveyors can be used on commercial or farm sites.

Sukup Manufacturing Co. is a family-owned business located in Sheffield, Iowa. In business for nearly 50 years, Sukup Manufacturing Co. produces farm and commercial grain bins, grain dryers, tower dryers, axial and centrifugal fans and heaters, stirring machines, bin unloading equipment, bin floors, grain spreaders, and Airway® Tubes, as well as their new line of material handling equipment, including bucket elevator legs, drag conveyors, and chain loop conveyors.
