Grain Dryers
Energy-efficient continuous-flow dryers that protect kernel quality while removing moisture fast — the essential partner to every silo plant.
Overview
Moisture under control
Grain that goes into storage wet comes out ruined. The Grains supplies mixed-flow continuous and recirculating batch dryers from 10 to 200 tonnes per hour, fired by gas, LPG, diesel or biomass, with precise temperature control that protects germination and milling yield while drying maize, paddy and other grains to safe storage moisture.

Key Features
Engineered in every detail
Mixed-Flow Design
Alternating air ducts dry every kernel evenly without hot spots or stress cracking.
Multi-Fuel Furnaces
Natural gas, LPG, diesel or biomass — including rice-husk furnaces for paddy sites.
Automatic Moisture Control
Online moisture sensing modulates discharge speed for a consistent final moisture.
Heat Recovery
Cooling-section air is recycled into drying, cutting fuel consumption up to 20%.
Dust & Emission Control
Screened air intakes and dust collection meet environmental requirements.
Gentle Grain Handling
Low-impact filling and discharge protect seed germination and milling quality.

FAQ
Frequently asked questions
Start from your peak daily intake and incoming moisture. As a rule of thumb, a dryer must handle the wettest 20 days of harvest — we model your intake curve and recommend a capacity with sensible reserve.
Yes. Mixed-flow dryers handle both crops; paddy simply runs at lower air temperatures and slower throughput to protect head-rice yield. The control system stores separate recipes per crop.
Where pipeline gas is available it is usually cheapest. For paddy sites, rice-husk biomass furnaces turn a waste product into free fuel and are increasingly the best answer as gas tariffs rise.
Not when done correctly. Seed-grade drying uses lower air temperatures and gentle handling; our dryers are used by seed companies specifically because germination is preserved.
