Power Sweeps



Labor saving power sweeps are available in 8” and 10” models to fit 15’ through 60’ diameter bins. The complete assembled unit includes the unload tube, rack and pinion controls for the slide gates; unload screw, hopper flanges, bin wall plate, and the sweep with a wheel end drive. The sweep and unload system is driven with a single motor outside the bin. Power is transmitted through the unload screw and a heavy-duty gearbox / transmission system. One lever located on the outside of the bin engages – disengages the sweep. The sweep is removable with a “one pin” system and the sweep can be transferred from bin to bin and save on initial equipment costs. The backboard can be adjusted plus or minus 12” to fit larger / smaller diameter bins and can be adjusted to be operated as close to the bin wall as you want. Choose a heavy duty horizontal, inclined, or vertical drive to complete this system.
