FAQ
A Double Run Grain Conveyor (also known as a grain pump conveyor or chain loop conveyor) is a high-capacity enclosed grain handling system designed to move grain efficiently using a continuous chain with paddles. Unlike traditional augers, it transports grain horizontally, vertically, or on an incline with minimal product damage.
This system is widely used in commercial grain handling operations, grain elevators, and large-scale farms across the United States.
This system is widely used in commercial grain handling operations, grain elevators, and large-scale farms across the United States.
Compared to traditional grain augers, Double Run Conveyors provide:
• Lower grain damage (ideal for seed and specialty crops)
• Higher capacity grain transfer (up to 15,000 BPH)
• Improved energy efficiency
• Reduced maintenance requirements
This makes them a preferred solution for modern grain handling systems in the Midwest and nationwide operations.

This makes them a preferred solution for modern grain handling systems in the Midwest and nationwide operations.
Double Run Grain Conveyor systems typically handle:
• 3,000 to 10,000 bushels per hour (BPH)
• Up to 15,000 BPH in high-capacity configurations
These performance levels make them suitable for commercial grain facilities, feed mills, and large farming operations.

Yes. Double Run Conveyor systems are highly versatile and can operate:
• Horizontally
• Vertically
• At steep inclines (up to ~60°)
• Around corners and complex layouts
This flexibility allows for custom grain handling system design tailored to your facility.
