Belt conveyor

Buhler Manufacturing has introduced a line of belt conveyors. Available in belt widths of 12, 16 and 22 inches with tube diameters of 10 and 14 inches, they include in-line and swing models.

Scissor-lift undercarriages are standard on swing models and optional on longer in-line models.

Lengths range from 35 to 90 feet to accommodate bin heights up to 45 feet 9 inches at 30 degrees of incline.

Designed for gentle handling of pulse crops, conveyors avoid damage that may occur to commodities such as beans and sunflowers when handled by screw type augers. Fertilizer is also best handled by a conveyor.

Milligan Biotech’s canola oil-based diesel fuel conditioner is now available at Westward Parts Ltd. outlets across Canada.
