Grain thrower PZM-120M

The main advantages of the grain thrower:

• it’s a self-propelled car that drives and loads itself with grain without the help of other equipment or people;
• no manual labor for moving or loading the grain thrower;
• the grain flies up to a distance of 25 meters, and does not spill down like augers, belt, vacuum and frontal loaders;
• high productivity - up to 135 tons per hour;
• high loading height - up to 9 meters;
• grain sampling width 5.8 meters, which is much larger than that of screw, belt, vacuum and wheel loaders;
• in the process of loading or transferring grain, its moisture and contamination decreases;
• minimum costs for loading grain - 0.1 kW of electricity per 1 ton;
• ergonomic, simple and reliable design;
• change of direction, range or height of grain loading in 3 seconds;
• easy operation and maintenance.

Grain thrower advantages versus auger-type loader

• Grain throwers drives on its own and loads itself with grain without other mechanisms or personnel assistance but auger has to be moved manually all along.

• Grain moving distance is limited by auger length, grain falls next to auger. Grain thrower can throw at a distance up to 25 meters.

• Vehicle can stay put when loading with grain thrower unlike auger-type loader.

• Grain thrower withdrawal width is 6 meters, but auger’s is 10 times lower.

• Grain crushing degree is no more than 0,1 % with thrower and is many times higher with auger.

• Rapid change of grain flight distance, height and direction within just 3 sec.

• Grain wetness and population of debris decreases when loading with thrower unlike auger-type loaders.

Grain thrower advantages versus pneumatic (vacuum) grain loaders

• Grain thrower drives on its own and loads itself with grain without other mechanisms or personnel assistance but pneumatic loader and its parts has to be moved manually all along.

• Grain loading height is much higher with thrower.

• Grain crushing degree is no more than 0,1 % with thrower and is many times higher with vacuum loader.

• Vehicle can stay put when loading with grain thrower unlike vacuum loader.

• Grain thrower electricity consumption is just 0,1 kW for 1 ton of grain and vacuum loader consumes much more electricity.

• Rapid change of grain flight distance, height and direction within just 3 sec.

• Grain thrower maintenance and support is much more cheaper than vacuum loader.

Grain thrower advantages versus front-end loader

• Front-end loader has to be moved together with grain all along and as a result higher risk of accident or injury to a worker. Grain thrower does not displace but just collects grain from the ground and throws it somewhere else or to the vehicle.

• Front-end thrower consumes expensive fuel and lubricants and there is a risk of fire, a lot of smoke and waste that personnel breath in. Grain thrower consumes just 0,1 kW per 1 ton of grain and there is no risk of fire, smoke and waste.

• Front-end loader rides on the grain and pushes it with bucket when operating, as a result high degree of grain crushing. Grain thrower degree of grain crushing is no more than 0,1 %.

• Depending on modification of grain thrower its performance is up to 135 tons per hour that makes it possible to upload grain much faster than front-end loader.

• Front-end loader empties out bucket near itself and uploading height is much less.

• Grain thrower can load grain up to ceiling but front-end loader can’t do this because there is no space available for its bucket.

• Grain thrower maintenance and support is much more cheaper than front-end loader maintenance.

• Grain thrower is a simple agricultural machine and personnel do not need any permission or license to manage it.

• Grain wetness and population of debris decreases when loading with thrower unlike front-end loader

• Grain thrower withdrawal width is 6 meters and is much less with a front-end loader
