Benefits of the grain tedder
Agricultural enterprises in Ukraine and post-Soviet countries use, as a rule, floor-type granaries. Floor-type granaries (grain warehouses) are designed for storage of large volumes of grain crops of one type. Grain storage lasts from several weeks to six months.
Giving a characteristic of such a facility, it is worth noting that the building is more often metal, has a rectangular shape. Storage material is stored directly on the floor. The floor surface is horizontal or inclined. Floor granary greatly simplifies the loading and unloading of crops. But the most important disadvantage of grain warehouses is the spoilage of grain as a result of fallow, as ventilation systems are often absent – expensive. The heads of agricultural enterprises are constantly looking for cheaper machines for drying and mixing grain.
Here the assistant comes, recognized indispensable, grain tedder. Kharkov plant “VITYAZ” offers to buy a grain tedder – the unit is a powerful, efficient, modern device that performs the following operations:

– shoveling, ventilating the grain;
– elimination of grain deposits – absence of fungus and mold;
– eliminates centers of self-heating of stored material – the primary cause of grain spoilage during storage;
– performs grain loosening;
– produces rapid drying of crops.
At the same time, the design capabilities allow localized mixing of grain, and not like using a grain tedder – you have to throw the entire thickness. Comparing with the grain tedder, which performs a number of similar functions, it is worth noting that when processing grain with the tedder, it is not injured, the unit does not produce dust.
These are the main grain processing processes performed by the tedder. The usefulness, functionality of the machine does not stop there. The consequence of such performed functions is undoubtedly:
– Reduction of time, energy costs for grain shoveling, comparable to mixing by hand;
– preservation of seed quality;
– saves the company’s budget – there is no need to install expensive ventilation systems.

The grain tedder from LLC “Mashinostroitelny Zavod “VITYAZ” is capable of mixing a layer of 4 meters. The indicator is achieved due to the metal auger installed vertically. In the process of auger rotation, the grain of the lower layers rises to the top. The diameter, length of the auger can be different. The power of the machine is 2.2 kW. The average productivity is 60-70 tons / hour. Sufficiently high indicator. The weight of the machine is 35 kilograms. The weight is quite acceptable for the activity of one person. In fact, the design of the machine is not complicated and does not have a large number of removable elements. Repairing the tedder, replacing a part, there will be no special difficulties.
When purchasing a grain tedder from the factory “VITYAZ”, you receive a passport and technical manual for the use of the machine. To work with the tedder there is no need to train specialized personnel – the necessary information is presented in the documents.
Summarizing the above, we can conclude that the grain tedder is an inexpensive, effective, low-energy-consuming, small-sized, qualitatively performing the functions of equipment that can significantly facilitate the livelihood of agricultural enterprises that have floor granaries. Grain tedder – the best helper in grain warehouses!
