The Sukup Full-Heat Mixed-Flow Dryer is engineered to enhance the grain drying process, optimizing both capacity and quality. Unlike traditional cross-flow full-heat dryers, this unit features wide 30-inch grain columns that accommodate more grain in process compared to 14” or narrower cross-flow columns. While holding more bushels, the grain is dried slowly and only uses about half the airflow per bushel. Since full-heat dryers only heat the grain, the grain is cooled over 24-48 hours in a grain bin, lowering the potential for stress cracks in the kernels and promoting better grain quality.
The standard large 7” metering rolls allow grain with foreign material to flow without plugging, which makes this grain dryer an ideal solution for specialty crops such as rice or pistachios. The innovative design includes a patented vertical intake duct at the front and back of each column, creating additional space for grain and minimizing clogging. Each tier of the dryer is equipped with both inlet and exhaust ducts that manage airflow through the grain in mixed directions, allowing for more even air temperature distribution, which improves fuel efficiency and preserves grain quality.
