Andrew Head, MD, BDC Systems says:

After last year’s catchy and difficult harvest, we have experienced significant growth in the number of enquiries for our grain handling systems and customers have taken initial enquiries forward to the design stage more quickly than usual. 

In particular, enquiries for BDC Systems’ Svegma continuous flow driers have increased. This is a reflection of the struggle some farmers had in 2021 to get their crops dry in time to meet market and storage requirements.

With an industry leading reputation for outstanding quality and efficiency BDC Systems’ Svegma driers are used extensively by farmers, farming co-operatives, commercial plant operators and maltsters.

The first Svegma drier was installed in the UK 38 years ago and there are now over 1,000 installations, all helping to stop farmers from losing sleep over wet grain!

BDC Systems’ Moisture Monitoring System (MMS) will be on show at LAMMA 2022. Our MMS is helping farmers/grain store operators overcome the perennial challenge of how to accurately and automatically check moisture content (mc) of wet grain as it enters storage.

The ability to pre-configure the MMS to automatically send text alerts should the mc fall above or below predefined maximum and minimum levels, enables farmers/grain store operators to make the necessary adjustments remotely and swiftly restore mc to the required levels.

Being able to remotely adjust grain drier settings ensures that the drier is optimised to maintain the correct mc, helping to significantly reduce energy costs.

We will also be showcasing Skandia Elevator’s next generation H-Line elevator.The H-Line will be of interest to larger farmer enterprises, commercial grain storage operators and milling plants requiring high tonnage grain handling capability

Skandia has listened to market demands and the next-generation H-Line delivers what customers want: elevators that are easier to maintain, have optimised flow which means less wear and tear to both machinery and grain and, which can now reach an overall height of 70m.

The Svegma driers, the MMS and the Skandia elevators are key components of BDC Systems’ grain handling solutions and ensure that we can deliver grain drying and storage solutions that meet our customers’ demands for harvest 2022 and crucially for harvests of the future.
