Bintec - Sampling Trough and Sweeping Augers

Function.
The removal technology from Bintec consists of a sweeping and a trough screw. The sweeping auger is switched on to empty the silo and runs on the silo floor or aeration floor. The remaining grain that does not run into the trough auger by itself is conveyed to the central removal slide in a single cycle. The auger is located in the silo floor and conveys the grain to the outside. Several sliders are installed in it, which are operated individually from the outside.

trough screw.
The drive of this screw is outside the silo. In the center, the bearing is designed in such a way that the auger can be easily removed and installed even with grain in the silo. After the drive has been installed and switched on, the worm with the cam catches itself in the bearing again.

To achieve maximum performance, there is a patented paddle drive wheel at the end of the auger. This runs with a gear reduction to the sweeping auger and ensures that the auger is always in contact with the grain during operation. This means that sweeping capacities of up to 80 t/h can be achieved. The rear wall of the sweeping auger consists of a galvanized steel plate, the length can be adjusted to the respective silo diameter. The auger is switched on externally via a gear and is stopped by the SweepStop after one revolution. This can be released again from the outside.

Drive.
An electric or hydraulic motor outside the silo is sufficient to drive the entire removal technology. It drives the trough screw, which in turn drives the sweep screw in the center of the silo via a gear. The sweeping auger is switched on and off from the outside. Both screws can be driven together or separately, both electrically and hydraulically.
