Subject: RE: Grain Legs which brand?


We manufacture and sell bucket elevators, so obviously, I'm biased towards Sudenga, but putting propaganda aside, most people I talk to appreciate the following advice, find a millwright that you feel comfortable with, that has good references. Ask them to take you to a few of their installations and show you why they are good at what they do. 50% of a good bucket elevator is in the installation. There are a lot of ways to get your grain from point A to B and a good leg installation is more than just the leg. That includes how you choose to feed it, how the transitions between the parts are fabricated/installed, how the spouts are installed, whether there are flow restrictors and deadheads in the correct spots, etc. Do they weld everything, or bolt everything? Ask them to explain why they do what they do. Make sure their responses are mutually beneficial, not just, "its cheaper", or "faster" to do it that way.

Good luck with your search 77 Farmer.
