Picture "1730" has a yellow cord looks like it goes in and out of the hopper ??
the 90 degree gear boxes are 1 to 1 ?? a 2 or 3 to 1 would be nice


If you look closely there is two cords. When you have multiple conveyors inline there is always a possibility that one stops and the other doesn't....making a big mess. We have bin switches at key locations to try and prevent the big mess by shutting down the drying system. Switches are just daisy chained in the control circuit.

Gearboxes are standard salvaged auger gearboxes. I believe they are all one to one. With the double reduction of a belt drive in combination with a chain drive this is not a problem.
