CLEANING GRAIN
SAVES MONEY
You save more than drying costs,
dockage, and aeration costs!
Grain cleaning also reduces the risk of grain spoilage or
insect infestation by removing the fines and trash which are
the main cause of problems during storage.
DMC’s full line includes four HI-CAP Grain Cleaners to
meet your cleaning needs at any capacity. Screens are
available for most grains.
