Chain Drive Dryer concept versus other Grain Dryers

Compared to a mixed flow dryer
When grain comes down between the Pigeon holes on a mixed flow dryer there is very often a problem with Grain Bridging and therefore getting continuous and excessive heat and then it starts burning – and can cause the dryer to be destroyed or at least lots of damage if fire is not put out right away – on our dryer there is a mechanical driven chain which forces the grain to continuously move and therefore it can’t bridge – making it a lot harder for a fire to start.
Our dryer has no belts to wear out
No auger flighting to wear out, no metering rolls to wear out, no metering rolls to plug up, anyone who has a mixed flow Grain dryer will agree that it is a great advantage to not have to deal with all this maintenance and down time when you have so many mechanical things which can and do go wrong from time to time.
Low maintenance on this dryer
Overall maintenance on this dryer is much lower as it is time consuming and costly to be changing small bearings, metering rolls, augers, belts etc the list goes on – when making a large capital investment like a grain Dryer these are points to really consider and put into the equation.
Virtually no maintenance on bearings
Our Dryer has large Bearings that move very slowly – virtually no maintenance on them – good for many many years of service
Our dryer is very gentle on the different grains
If you are worried about cracking or damaging expensive beans, or anything else this is the Dryer for you – there are no augers or meters where the products has to be forced through – it is placed gently on a large drying floor and the mechanical chain with the Hot air fans gently push and pull the Product through the process.
Switch grain varieties without emptying the dryer
If you decide at 10:00 in the morning you want to switch from wheat to canola – you can switch on the fly – no down time or babysitting the machine - This is a powerful tool in today’s fast paced farming – This great feature cannot be overstated - A mixed flow dryer with this capacity could take 3-4 hours.
Clean up made easy
We have a chaff bin where you can in most cases collect most of the chaff.
No screens to clean on this dryer
It is well known that screen dryers often need to have their screens cleaned in order to be efficient – Cleaning screens is time consuming and adds to your cost of operating your dryer

Electric, Electronic and Gas Train System

Best electric & electronic parts
Only the best and most proven electric and electronic parts are put into our dryer – all VFD and electronics are Siemens – this is a worldwide company with one of the best reputations in the industry – we use the highest quality motors (Veg Motors) on the market and Flendor Gearboxes.
Switch between Propane & Natural Gas
Our Dryer comes fully equipped to easily make the switch between Propane and Natural Gas – The Gas train comes fully assembled. The Burner is Vapor so there is no expensive orifice interchange if switching from Propane to Natural gas or vice-versa.
Designed for many years of trouble free use
Wiring and design of the entire electric and electronic system and Panel has been done with a team of our own Red Seal electricians and registered Panel builders working with Siemens application engineers – You can rest assured it is a very well designed and well built electric and electronic system – Built and designed for many years of trouble free use.
High bushels per hour
If for example you have corn and your customer is a ethanol plant – you can use high heat, high fan speeds – and therefore achieve very high bushels per hour.
Exceptional tool to manage your farm or grain drying
The point is that a Grain Dryer is a fairly large capital investment – and this specific dryer gives you the farmer an exceptional tool to manage your farm or grain drying much more efficiently and it gives you much more flexibility.
Monitor the dryer from a mobile device or computer
Ability to monitor the dryer from a smart phone or any other computer where you have Internet connection – example If you have your grain Dryer operating in Peace River Alberta and you want to monitor it in Florida – that is easily done with this system .

Advantages’ that our Dryer has



This dryer uses very common parts. Even though the dryer operation is timed, synchronized and programmed to have its numerous operations like the Burner, Blowers, mechanical chain, running around the clock – it still uses common parts which can usually be sourced at your local supplier – or blacksmith – there is very little danger of being unable to run your dryer due to certain parts being broken and unavailable.

Confidently run it 24/7 for weeks
You can confidently run it 24/7 for weeks on end as it is designed to run and operate in very adverse conditions – example we were running it in -28 degree weather right into the 0 Degree weather – basically the only time we shut down is when we ran out of product for short periods of time - In short all components of the overall design are made to run in any weather with little maintenance.
Variable Frequency Drive
All our motors are VFD (variable Frequency Drive) This advantage cannot be overstated as to how powerful it is – It gives you the operator or owner the ability to deal with your products as you best see fit – for example – if you want to maintain a high quality wheat even if you have to dry it – you have the option of controlling your heat, controlling your hot and cold fans – with these powerful options easily at your disposal you can easily find the sweet spot as to how you want to condition your grain.
Controlling the grain depth
You have the option of controlling the grain depth on the bed, This valuable feature can’t be emphasized enough as it gives you the operator the option of controlling the static Pressure – Example 30% moisture corn will require a higher static pressure then 22% – 25% moisture corn – you can easily set the depth of the corn or whichever Product your Drying to achieve different static pressures – with a heavy wheat crop which is even denser then Corn you can set the Thickness even thinner.
High bushels per hour
If for example you have corn and your customer is a ethanol plant – you can use high heat, high fan speeds – and therefore achieve very high bushels per hour.
Exceptional tool to manage your farm or grain drying
The point is that a Grain Dryer is a fairly large capital investment – and this specific dryer gives you the farmer an exceptional tool to manage your farm or grain drying much more efficiently and it gives you much more flexibility.
Auto shutoff
If dryer is unattended and it runs out of Product it will shut down by itself –It is also equipped with multiple safeties to ensure safe startup and safe operation during any conditions.

The Ultimate Efficient Grain Dryer

We have been drying in adverse conditions have achieved these results.

Heat from the Dried grain is recirculated back into the dryer and used again
Some of the many reasons for the extremely efficient design on our dryer is it recirculates all the heat from the grain that has been dried – through the design of the dryer this heat from the grain is recirculated back into the dryer and used again – this is a continuous operation and therefore creating efficiency and saving you money.
Efficiency and capacity
The overall concept of the dryer and the way it moves the air through the air is another reason for its efficiency and capacity.
Environmental impact
Our dryer is low profile, Low noise, It has Dust control – its overall quite operation makes for a very comfortable environment around the complete operation. It uses Maxon Burners – for the best emission performance on the market
Structure & workmanship on our dryer
The complete exterior of the dryer is galvanized and bolted construction – This process guarantees your investment to retain its integrity and strength for many years or even generations of farmers.
Saving money when shipping the unit anywhere
The dryer was designed to completely unbolt the top end of the dryer from the bottom – therefore saving money when shipping the unit anywhere – its designed to be moved on site without having to spend money on removing Hydro lines or to have to long of set up time on site - etc.
Workmanship and attention to detail
Our team of highly skilled designers, assemblers, welders, suppliers, etc., with attention to detail pride themselves on doing the job right! –Our Quality Control ensures that all processes in building the dryer are 100 %, for 100 % Customer Satisfaction.
