Material Handling AG SERIES

Product catalog summary
Overview
This document outlines the specifications and features of Sukup's material handling equipment, including bucket elevators, conveyors, support towers, and catwalks. The emphasis is on reducing grain damage and enhancing efficiency through innovative design.

Double Run Conveyors
The Sukup Double Run Conveyor is engineered to minimize grain damage and boost efficiency compared to traditional augers. Key features include a compact design for smooth operation, 100% UHMW paddles attached to the chain, a modular design requiring no cutting during assembly, and optional intermediate discharge gates for customization.

Chain Loop Conveyors
The Chain Loop Conveyor system facilitates efficient grain filling, unloading, blending, and transferring. It requires less power and is gentler on grain than augers, offers multiple drive-over dump hopper sizes, and features replaceable, abrasion-resistant corners.

Drag Conveyors
Designed for durability and easy maintenance, these conveyors feature removable bearings, sprockets, and shafts for easier maintenance, replaceable components like bottoms and liners, and pre-assembled chains and paddles for quick installation. Optional features include end relief doors and motion monitor sensors.

Bucket Elevators
Sukup Bucket Elevators are designed for low-impact grain handling, featuring a low-impact head design with a split-style hood for easy access, gravity take-up for proper belt tension, and optional pressure relief doors and head service platforms.

Support Towers & Catwalks
Sukup provides robust support towers and catwalks for bucket elevators, eliminating the need for guying cables. Features include a hot-dipped galvanized finish for durability, modules in various sizes for site-specific needs, and optional access bracing and catwalk support beams.

Specifications
The document details dimensions and capacities of drag conveyors and hoppers, including rise per foot of run for different incline angles and the need for a double paddle chain with 10° bend sections. Capacities are based on clean, dry, whole grains.

Procedures and Recommendations
It is recommended to contact Sukup Manufacturing Co. for precise dimensional information, as capacities are estimates. Using a by-pass inlet can decrease conveyor capacity.

Tables and Data
Tables list model numbers, capacities in bushels per hour at different speeds, and dimensions for various hopper and inlet configurations. Specifications are subject to change as products improve.

Contact Information
Sukup Manufacturing Co. provides contact details for distribution centers across several states for further information and assistance.

Company Background
Sukup Manufacturing Co. is a family-owned business with over 50 years of experience in developing innovative and reliable grain handling solutions.
