Services
Roller Mills
Our custom roller mills feature spiral-cut rollers to prevent grain passage, with adjustable teeth configurations for varying crush requirements. Available in widths from 152mm to 608mm, these mills use hardened carbonised rollers for longevity. The poly chain drive system ensures reliable operation while maintaining precise gear alignment to prevent blockages.
Portable Field Bins
We manufacture 28-55 tonne portable field bins with hydraulic lifting systems and PTO-driven augers. Standard models include 340/380-bag capacity bins with collapsible draw bars for easy transport. Custom configurations feature height-adjustable spouts and hydraulic choke controls for efficient unloading operations.
Hydraulic Land Rollers
Our hydraulic folding land rollers use safety valve systems to maintain position during hydraulic failure. The 9.000 and 12.000 models feature ERW pipe drums with wall thicknesses from 12-16mm, supported by heavy-duty bearings on 50.8-60mm shafts. Folding mechanisms allow compact transport while maintaining operational stability.
Fertiliser Silos
Custom silos feature galvanised construction with welded roofs and riveted wall sections. Available in capacities from 17-97 cubic metres, these units include safety features like roof safety rails and ground-operated fill hatches. Gas-tight configurations use pressure valves and auto-siphoning systems for chemical storage.
Equipment Repairs
We provide comprehensive repair services for agricultural equipment including hydraulic system maintenance and component refurbishment. Our workshop handles machining, welding (MIG/TIG/arc), and lathe work up to 3m lengths. On-site repairs available for large machinery with mobile service support.
