Grain dryers are used to dry hundreds of millions of tonnes of wheat, corn, soybeans, rice, and other grains like sorghum, sunflower seeds, rapeseed/canola, barley, oats, etc. According to the grain, drying in the major agricultural producing nations entails reducing moisture levels from approximately 17 to 30% w/w[clarification needed] to 8 to 15% w/w.
For drying, the ultimate moisture level must be sufficient for storage. The grain's storage moisture content will be lower the more oil it contains (though its initial moisture for drying will also be lower). Typically, cereals are dried to 14% weight whereas oilseeds are dried to 12.5% (soybeans), 8% (sunflower), and 9%. (peanuts).
To prevent microbial growth, drying is done in order to ensure safe storage. Low temperatures in storage are also strongly advised to prevent deteriorative responses and, particularly, the development of insects and mites. Around 18 °C is an acceptable maximum storage temperature.
To keep grain from spoiling while being stored, the grain must be dried. Grain drying techniques that involve fuel- or electricity-powered methods in addition to natural ones, such as swathing/windrowing for ambient air and sunlight drying or stoking before threshing.
The largest continuous-type grain dryer motors are typically utilized "Off-farm" in elevators: In Europe, mixed-flow dryers are favored, while cross-flow dryers are preferred in the US. Both kinds are frequently encountered in Argentina.
Up to 100 metric tonnes of dried grain can be produced per hour by continuous-flow dryers. The depth of grain that the air in continuous dryers must pass through varies from roughly 0.15 m in mixed-flow dryers to roughly 0.30 m in cross-flow dryers.
In the United States and Europe in particular, batch dryers are mostly utilized "On-Farm." They typically consist of a bin with heated air flowing horizontally from an internal cylinder through an inner perforated metal sheet, then through an annular grain bed that is approximately 0.50 m thick (coaxial with the internal cylinder), and then across the outer perforated metal sheet, before being discharged to the atmosphere.
The Global Grain Dryer Motors market accounted for $XX Billion in 2022 and is anticipated to reach $XX Billion by 2030, registering a CAGR of XX% from 2023 to 2030.
The Next Generation Legacy Series, the newest grain dryer motors product line from Mathews Company (M-C), a leading manufacturer of grain dryers worldwide, has just been released. In five of the last six years, M-C has been at the forefront of innovation by releasing new product designs, and this year is no different.
The Legacy Series has been the company's main product for more than 40 years of manufacture. M-C took their tried and true low-profile Legacy Series product line added today's newest technologies and transformed it into one of the most cutting-edge machines available to satisfy the market's requirement for an expandable series dryer that has improved efficiency and reduced operating costs.
The expanding "profile" style dryer that provides the benefits, features, and overall operating efficiency associated with M-well-liked C's tower-style dryers is something new that the Next Generation Legacy Series offers producers and commercial grain facility managers.
