    GREAT GRAIN HANDLING SYSTEMS
BEGIN WITH GOOD PLANNING
AND M-C DRYERS
ffIORYBINE
The ENERGY SAVING
IN-BIN DRYING SYSTEM
The new Mathews Continuous In-Bin Dryer
is a combination storage drying and cooling
bm designed to save you money It is efficient,
fast, easy to manage and costs less to operate
The drying process is fast; while the cooling
process is slow, eliminating stress cracks
and damage caused by fast cooling There is
nothing else like it on the market The
Mathews design requires no wet holding bin
or separate bin for cooling
• Saves energy for profitable operations
in-bm dryers
• Proven high capacity results (357 bushels per hour) • Low per bushel costs

HERE'S HOW IT WORKS...
As wet grain enters the top of the bin, it
flows into the upper drying chamber as har
vested, with no* need for a wet holding bin
This upper chamber holds up to 4 feet of wet
gram (2250 bushels)
Every seven minutes, a continuous flow
|H | auger makes a complete revolution around the
L Wtk upper drying floor, drawing the dried gram into
the lower cooling area
Hot air is introduced under the upper floor to
dry the wet gram and to heat the surface of the
gram that is distributed into the lower cooling
chamber The air that is used for cooling the
grain picks up heat during the cooling process
This heated air is then used again in the drying
process, saving on fuel costs
When not being used for drying, the bin will
store 8500 bushels of grain
