Grain Conveyor - Productive Unit from Zavod Moroza

When it comes to moving large volumes of products with minimal losses, a correctly selected grain conveyor is the key to the efficiency of the entire complex. Depending on the tasks, this can be a powerful chain unit for an intake pit, a high-speed screw, or a gentle belt conveyor. Common to all models of our production is a reinforced design designed to work with abrasive grain flow, and the use of reliable drives that withstand long-term operation. Such systems are ideal for installation in ZAV technological lines, over-silo galleries, and trestles, guaranteeing uninterrupted grain movement regardless of the chosen type of traction organ.

Design principles of equipment operation

To ensure a stable product flow, we use three proven engineering concepts implemented in metal with an industrial safety margin:

• Traction principle (chain models)
  Based on dragging the grain mass along the bottom of the casing using powerful chains with scrapers - this guarantees forced movement of even wet product without slippage.
• Screw principle (auger models)
  Uses the torque of a steel spiral (auger), which mechanically pushes the product along the pipe - such mechanics are the only effective ones when working at significant inclination angles.
• Carrying principle (belt models)
  Grain lies passively on a rubber-fabric belt moving on rollers, and the absence of load friction against the trough minimizes wear of working surfaces and load on the drive.

Each of these design principles has been tested by years of operation at Ukrainian elevators. The use of the traction method in drag conveyors provides unsurpassed reliability in difficult conditions, while screw and carrying technologies solve specific tasks of mobility and gentleness. We implement these principles in metal and other materials with a maximum safety margin, creating equipment that works stably regardless of the chosen type of mechanics.

Reinforced construction and protection of grain conveyor mechanisms

When designing a grain conveyor, we pay special attention to the endurance of units undergoing the greatest loads. Chain models use a special traction chain that meets strict technical requirements and withstands a breaking force of at least 11 tons - this ensures high resistance to dynamic jerks that often occur when starting a loaded line. To protect the drive from critical breakdowns, we install a special safety coupling in front of the gear motor, which compensates for peak loads and prevents engine failure in case of foreign objects entering.

The durability of the housing and working organs is ensured by a complex of protective measures. Metal parts undergo thorough anti-corrosion treatment with priming and painting with high-quality enamels, which allows operating the equipment both indoors and outdoors. To minimize grain injury and reduce noise, metal scrapers can be equipped with wear-resistant polymer or rubber pads. In addition, the design provides for the possibility of easy integration into automated elevator control systems for synchronous operation as part of technological lines.

Application and integration of grain conveyor in threshing floor logistics

A wide range of configurations of our equipment allows effectively covering any needs for moving products at all stages of processing. Powerful scraper (chain) grain conveyors are an alternative-free solution for the most difficult areas - unloading from intake pits and upper loading of silos. Their sealed design ensures production cleanliness, and the possibility of installing intermediate unloading sections allows one unit to alternately load a whole row of bunkers, which is standard for over-silo galleries.

For areas where preserving the integrity of the grain shell is a priority, for example, on seed lines or when transporting fragile crops (soybeans, sunflower, beans), we recommend using belt conveyors. The absence of active product friction against the trough makes them indispensable for gentle material supply over considerable distances inside warehouses. In hard-to-reach places where it is necessary to organize transshipment at a steep angle, screw systems work optimally, the compactness of which allows them to be mounted where other units simply will not fit.

We pay special attention to ease of installation and transportation hygiene. The grain conveyor is designed on a modular principle - sections are connected using flanges, which reduces the need for complex welding work and allows easy integration of new equipment into existing ZAV units. Perfect joining of elements without internal steps guarantees laminarity (uniformity) of flow and complete absence of "dead zones" where product could accumulate. This is critical for preserving grain quality, as it makes the formation of self-heating foci and pest reproduction in crop residues impossible, ensuring complete cleaning of the route when changing crops.
