What is Grain Elevator?

Grain elevator is an agricultural machine that aims to transport or store dry materials such as grain (such as wheat, barley, corn). Grain elevators are used for the transport and storage of dry materials and can also be used for the transport of various agricultural products.

What is the Purpose of Grain Elevator?

Grain elevators are mostly used for processing grains such as wheat, barley and corn from the agricultural areas where they are harvested, and for processing them in the facilities or transporting them to the places where they are stored. Grain elevators are generally used for the purpose of filling the grain into high-capacity silo structures after being collected from the agricultural fields or removing them from the silo structures and processing them in the facilities.

How Do Grain Elevators Work?

Grain elevators are generally used for the purpose of filling the grain into high-capacity silo structures after being collected from the agricultural fields or removing them from the silo structures and processing them in the facilities.

The working principle of grain elevators is formed as a result of the interaction of various components with each other. The components used in grain elevators are:

  • Receiver belt: It is the belt used during the transport of the grain from the agricultural area where it is collected to the silo structures. This band proceeds from the agricultural area where the grain is collected towards the silo structures.
  • Receiver unit: It is the part on the receiving band that performs the filling of the grain into the silo structures. This unit takes the grain over the receiving belt and fills it into the silo structures.
  • Silo structure: It is the structure where the grain is stored. The silo structure is formed as a result of the grain being filled by the receiving unit.
  • Transmitters: It is the section used for removing the grain from the silo structure and processing it in the facilities. The transmitters are used to extract the grain from the silo structure and process it in the facilities.

Between these components, the transportation and storage of grain takes place. Grain elevators are especially used for the transport and storage of dry materials and can also be used for the transport of various agricultural products.
