Shivvers Complete Performance Drying Systems: Industry-Leading Components and Uncompromising Standards
When you purchase a Circu-Lator Performance System, you’ll receive a all-in-one drying solution perfect for:
- Transforming new or existing bins into drying and storage operations
- Fine-tuning drying precision
- Ensuring flexible, yet comprehensive control without extra transfer equipment
Built around the Circu-Lator core machine, this Performance Drying System is available in three different models: the Circu-Lator 2 Performance System as well as the Hi-Torque 2 and 3 models.
How Circu-Lator Performance Systems Work
Our center vertical auger gives the line of Circu-Lator Systems the unique capability to provide both continuous-flow and batch drying. Grain moved with the vertical auger can be transferred to storage bins (without the need for dedicated transfer equipment) or recirculated to your exact standards of drying. Every Circu-Lator core machine still includes the horizontal unload auger under the bin floor for easy unloading.
The center vertical augers provides three distinct benefits:
- Ability to transform your drying bin into a storage bin by recirculating the last batch of dried grain.
- Comprehensive grain drying and storage managements without the need for additional transfer equipment.
- An added layer of drying precision, provided by the option to recirculate grain through the drying process
By adding the center vertical auger to your drying system, you have more control than ever over how you store, dry and transfer your grain.
