STIRATOR & GRAIN FLOW

-^The demands of farming are never ending. The risks are high. Each year you have one shot at your crop's yield, strategically navigating through all the challenges Mother Nature throws your way. And, at harvest, every second counts. The window of opportunity from field to storage is narrow, so you need storage solutions that maximize productivity and minimize downtime. Years of hard work powered by a single vision to design and deliver world-class products have built this company from the ground up. For more than 40 years, it is this dedication and commitment that have resulted in GSI...

IN-BIN DRYING WHY CHOOSE A GSI STIRATOR? Whether purchasing a new bin or updating present storage for drying, a StirAtor can cut drying time by 50% in a low temperature bin. A StirAtor can also help store grain by serving as a management tool for grain conditioning. GSI StirAtors provide a thorough, systematic, and time-tested stirring pattern. The efficiency of the Design III StirAtor is enhanced by its spiral stirring pattern which affects the entire grain mass within each stirring cycle. This stirring pattern that allows the augers to spend more time stirring the outside of the bin,...

DESIGN III STIRATOR The Design III StirAtor can turn a grain bin into a drying system at a minimum investment. A high temperature, above 10 degree rise, bin dryer has to have a way to dry all the grain to the same moisture. Just running a fan & heater on a bin full of grain will result in 5% grain at the bottom with no moisture removed on the top. A GSI StirAtor ensures that all the grain is the same moisture without requiring a wet tank. STIRATOR FEATURES AVAILABLE OPTIONS Rugged Drive: A strong 3/16" aircraft cable drives the machine. No reversing switches. Stir-Guard: Protects grain from...

IN-BIN DRYING GRAIN FLOW The capacity of your drying bin can be significantly increased by the addition of a GSI Model 84 Grain Flow. It pulls only the dried grain at the floor of the bin, improving efficiency while preserving exceptional grain quality. Plus, with shallow depths the system achieves higher airflows and capacity. The integrated Calc-U-Dri provides complete operation and moisture controls. Grain Flow reduces the necessity of a wet bin though one can be added for maximum capacity. GRAIN FLOW FEATURES Rugged Gear Box: The gear box features Timken tapered roller bearings, high...

CALC-U-DRI FEATURES: On-Delay Timer: Three seconds before Grain Flow starts, the Calc-U-Dri starts the takeaway system, minimizing peak power loads. Sensor Location: Location of the Calc-U-Dri sensor in the discharge auger accurately checks the moisture content of every bushel of grain being discharged. Adjustable Off-Delay Timer (1-100 Sec.): The take-away system continues to run 20 seconds after the Grain Flow stops discharging grain, emptying the take-away system of grain. Universal Usage: Use with all grains in all environmental conditions. Adjustable drying periods on the Calc-U-Dri...

STIRATOR CORN CHART STIRATOR RICE CHART GRAIN FLOW DRYING CAPACITIES The STIRATOR CORN charts are based on ambient air temperature of 50°F, 60% relative humidity, 16' (4.9 m) of corn, 10% moisture removal (2 points removed in cooling) (25%-17%). The STIRATOR RICE charts are based on ambient air temperature of 80°F, 85% relative humidity, 16' (4.9 m) of rice, 7% moisture removal (19%-13%). These charts are designed as a guide only. Fan performance will vary considerably from one manufacturer to another and other factors can change the approximate bushels per day. Choose from StirAtor...

COMPLETE YOUR GSI SYSTEM MATERIAL HANDLING When determining the best system for your operation, we know that what is protected inside the bin is what counts the most. Every product we design, engineer and build is based on this foundation. GSI’s material handling line includes bucket elevators, chain conveyors, belt conveyors, bin unloads, and chain loops. Also available are towers, catwalks, and support structures. Today’s farm operations have greatly varied needs for their drying solutions. Size, type, and investment all play a part in the decision for which to use. GSI provides systems...
