Grain

Alimak industrial elevators are suitable for use in all weather conditions to transport passengers and materials to the various parts of a grain facility. River and rail terminals are used to transport large quantities of grain via conveyor belt technology for delivery to grain storage silos.

Grain storage silos require vertical access for various purposes including inspections and maintenance. Alimak’s robust industrial elevators provide a reliable vertical access solution for the transportation of workers and materials to these parts of the facility.

How to elevate grain-production efficiency and overcome maintenance bottlenecks?

A grain-producing plant is a tough place for any piece of machinery, and the elevator is no exception. Alimak elevators are designed to operate at peak performance in demanding industrial settings, providing reliable vertical transportation of personnel and equipment to critical levels for service and maintenance access, resulting in enhanced production efficiency.

Why choose Alimak elevators for the grain sector?

Enhanced safety

Alimak industrial elevators reduce the risk of falls from height, eliminate exertion from climbing, and provide the ability to quickly transport injured personnel from any height.

Increased productivity

Alimak industrial elevators provide fast and efficient vertical access for maintenance crews, reducing shutdown times and optimisng productivity.

Robust and rugged design

Installation on silos means exposure to all weather conditions. Alimak industrial elevators are designed to withstand harsh environments.

Low investment costs with high productive results

Many field studies and research reports have shown that the installation and usage of Alimak rack-and-pinion elevators are extremely profitable.

Applications for industrial elevators in the grain industry

Typical grain structures that require vertical access include:

Alimak industrial elevators can provide access to several landings of grain stacks. A critical piece of equipment on site, the Alimak elevator allows maintenance staff to access higher levels of the stack for necessary servicing and maintenance.

The elevator also enables swift and reliable access for emergency response if required.

Alimak industrial elevators are used to provide personnel with fast and reliable vertical access for essential maintenance and service at different levels. This supports keeping downtime to a minimum to boost productivity.

Alimak elevators allows on-site personnel access to critical tower landings, several times a day. In addition, personnel will be able to transfer maintenance equipment and repair components using the elevator.

Alimak’s unique rack-and-pinion drive design and rugged car and electrical components are specifically designed for outdoor use and avoid the need for an enclosed elevator shaft way and separate supporting structure.

Alimak industrial elevators support the productivity of belt conveyors by providing reliable access for maintenance and service, to ensure downtime is kept to a minimum.
