"Go Anywhere" Grain Drying Wagon
The fan sucks hot air through a large opening under the burner, then forces it through the trailer, which is equipped with a perforated drying floor and a series of equally spaced vertical augers to continuously circulate grain.
During drying, augers mounted on a beam shuttle through the wagon at 10 minute intervals.
When drying is complete, the wagon is simply dumped to unload. It's loaded directly in the field with a combine or at the farm with an auger. It takes an hour to remove 4 points of moisture from the crop, the company says.
Two models are available: 25-ton capacity, which requires a 130 hp tractor, and 15-ton, which requires a 90 hp tractor.
They sell for about $58,000 and $81,000, respectively.
