The Basics
With grain in the bin, air is heated and blown into the plenum, the
area under the perforated drying floor, where it flows up through
the grain, drying the layer of grain on the floor, and warming the
grain above.
The tapred sweep augers bring a grain sample from the floor up to
the moisture sensor where it determines the moisture content. If the
grain has reached the desired setting, the Command Center turns on
the Continuous Flow Auger to take the grain to the storage facility.
If the grain has not reached the desired moisture, the Continuous
Flow Augers are left off and the center vertical auger spreads the
grain sample back on top in the drying bin. This process assures
that no wet grain transfers into storage. |

High Efficiency Drying for All Grains
The Shivvers System has a deeper depth drying zone, unlike portable
continuous flow dryers that have narrow 12” – 14” drying columns. Shivvers’ deeper zone allows efficient drying at all temperatures.
Narrow column dryers exhaust unsaturated (unused) drying air when
used at temperatures below 180º F, losing drying capacity.
The Shivvers
System maintains efficiency and delivers good capacity at the lower
90º - 160º F, most commonly used with specialty grains such as white
corn, grass seeds and high oil corn. This same Performance System
has the versatility to rapidly dry yellow field corn at 200º F with
high efficiency. |

Certified Capacities
Shivvers builds quality products that are engineered to work
individually, but the Shivvers Performance System combines the
advantages of these individual components for peak performance. By
building all the components, testing them together and installing
them per Shivvers requirements, we at Shivvers know how the
equipment will perform and what it is capable of doing. Shivvers
will certify that the System you purchase will perform at the
published capacities or we will do what it takes to make it perform,
it is that simple.
When you purchase a Shivvers Performance System, you will have a
Shivvers Factory Representative visit your Performance System site
and pre-check your system to ensure proper installation. Once your
system has been approved, you will receive a full operation manual
with a Certification of Drying Capacity stating the capacity you
will receive with your Shivvers Performance System...in writing.
