We construct high-quality grain conveyors with top materials to ensure precision and product integrity.
When your agricultural business involves growing, storing, and processing grain, it’s tough to overstate the value of equipment and products that simplify each step. Many growers use manual processes, which can waste a lot of time and increase the risk of problems along the way. But at Merritt Mechanical Fabrication, we work with companies and agricultural business leaders throughout the area to provide access to a range of solutions, including grain conveyors.
Grain conveyors are highly functional mechanical systems that move bulk grain from one place to another. Also called grain tubeveyors or belts, these systems can handle high-value crops in a gentle way, minimizing the risk of damage on impact. Since grain is a delicate crop that must be handled in a specific manner, utilizing a piece of machinery that is designed to push or pull it properly can save time and resources while maximizing outputs.
Most grain conveyor systems feature a belt that has multiple layers of plastic, nylon, polyester, or rubber. The layers are made from materials designed to be resistant to wear and stretching, and the belt is supported by bearings and rollers that ensure smooth, consistent movement.
Our technicians can help you get the components needed to improve your processes and streamline your efforts. We construct high-quality grain conveyors with top materials to ensure precision and product integrity. If you’re interested in learning more about this option and how it can revolutionize your grain processing facility, don’t hesitate to give us a call to get started.

FAQs About Grain Conveyors
Efficient grain handling is essential for all agricultural operations, from harvesting to processing. Our team at Merritt Mechanical Fabrication offers high-quality systems for transporting grain that simplify grain movement, storage, and processing, saving you time while maintaining product quality and increasing output. Some of the most common questions we get about our grain conveyors are answered below.
Hidden
What kind of grain conveyors are available?
Belt conveyors, screw conveyors, and chain conveyors are three common varieties. Our team specializes in custom-built belt-style conveyors, also known as grain tube conveyors, which are suitable for treating your crops with care.
Why should I use a grain conveyor rather than manual handling?
Manual grain handling can be time-consuming and increases the likelihood of product loss or contamination. A conveyor streamlines the operation, increasing efficiency and minimizing grain damage during transfer.
What materials are grain conveyor belts made of?
Our belts are often constructed from layers of plastic, nylon, polyester, or rubber. These materials are chosen for their strength, flexibility, and resistance to stretching or wear.
Are grain conveyors appropriate for high-value or sensitive crops?
Yes. Grain conveyors are designed to reduce impact and friction, ensuring the quality and integrity of high-value grains.
