Fs Fg Webinar 400pxJoin us for the third installment of SLAM 360: The Full Circle of Grain Quality Preservation, a webinar series devoted to education on grain systems Sanitation, Loading, Aeration, and Monitoring. Grain quality can never be improved once it’s harvested from the field, but it can be maintained — and we’ll teach you how.

Brock Spnsrby 200pxGrain drying serves an important role in quality preservation by reducing grain moisture content before storing it. With dryers reaching temperatures of 140 degrees or higher, they pose a potential fire hazard, but the risk can be mitigated with effective maintenance programs, cleaning, and proper operations. Bill Winchell, district manager for Brock Grain Systems, possesses more than 50 years of experience in the commercial grain industry, including roles as an operations technician, equipment dealer support lead, grain dryer troubleshooter, sales manager, and product developer. In this exclusive webinar, Winchell will lend his expertise in grain quality management, highlighting the importance of a dryer cleaning and maintenance schedule and the latest advances in grain moisture and dryer temperature sensors to achieve safe operations and optimal grain moisture levels for enhanced storability.

This webinar will broadcast at 10:00 AM CDT (Chicago) / 4:00 PM BST (London) / 11:00 PM CST (Beijing).

WHAT YOU’LL LEARN:

  1. The vital role of reducing grain moisture content prior to storage to prolong storability and preserve quality.
  2. Proper grain dryer operations and recommended maintenance activities for equipment efficiency and longevity.
  3. Opportunities for the integration of AI in grain dryer controls and operations.
  4. The importance of maintaining a dryer cleaning schedule and the role of housekeeping in preventing the risk of grain dryer fires.
