Robin and David came this morning to try and sort out problems with the feed on the dryer. To solve the screw conveyor overload. we need to create a parrallel cover over the screw, and the overflow need to be altered so that more grain goes to the dryer. The screw cover was solved by fixing a 8"Purlin above and parallel with the conveyor. And the overflow was solved by rejigging the ducting we gained two 45 degree angles as well. By lunch this was all inplace and ready to be tried. It solved all the issues, we had a controlled overflow and the ampage draw on the conveyor was about 75% of the overload settings.
I dried about 50 ton in the afternoon
