John Deere 9220 pulling a Brent 1085 Grain Cart . It unloads approximately 1000 bushel of corn in around 1:50! I ate a bunch of bees wings when he moved to the back hopper, but kept the footage rolling! :P
I'm the manager a a grain firm where we load grain trains for a living in Nebraska. we can load a grain car(provided nothing breaks) which is equal to 4 semi loads in 7 mins. however, we got a REALLY REALLY good grain load out system. I did once get it down to 5 mins but it starts to get dangerous at that. usually when we get in 100 train car unit we can do it in 12 hours. usually the railroad gives us 15-16 hours to load a full grain train but we can get it done in 12 hours.
@@brappp33 yes! Should be close to that. A hopper bottom train car is rated at 200k pounds while a semi hopper can legally hold between 50 and 53k. It's amazing to see how large the hopper train cars are in person
I’m not a big fan of fast auger loaders. I drive a grain truck and it’s hard to get 80000 (84000 here in Texas) and axle weight right if you need to cross scales. Hauling on the farm or short might be different. I can’t afford the tickets and a lot of farms think just because you can load a truck in two minutes that’s the only way to do it. At the speed he’s loading the airride won’t have time to inflate so my scales won’t read accurately.
Do you even know, how much you are carryring......... ?........ Bushel, feets, elbows, ears or thumps ??? - In Denmark the police are interested in 40 metric tons of load/truck = 40 cubicmeter of water - easy peasy ! No short tons, no long tons ! A metric tons is the same in Denmark as is Italy
