Sukup Addresses Grain Bin Safety Concerns With Zero-Entry Commercial Sweep

Sukup Manufacturing Co. holds the safety of customers as a top priority. Keeping operators and workers out of grain bins is key to keeping them safe. To that end, Sukup Manufacturing Co. has developed the 16” Zero-Entry Commercial Sweep for 60’-156’ diameter bins. The Zero-Entry Commercial Sweep is designed to withstand the demands of commercial grain storage, while being operated and powered entirely from outside the bin. All motors on the Sukup commercial sweep, including pusher motors, are explosion-proof for increased safety.

The Sukup commercial sweep can be operated in automatic or manual mode. In automatic mode, the controller senses the auger load and advances the sweep without overloading the auger motor, preventing spinning of the pusher tires. These pushers, combined with the 16” diameter auger, industrial grade gear box and an adjustable, rubber-tipped scraper behind the auger.
