Chief Agri
Chief Agri originated in 1961 and has grown to offer a full line of grain and commodity storage, aeration and material handling products throughout the world
The success of our company is directly due to the strong relationships we have
created with our customers. Listening to their needs has led Chief to design
new and innovative products helping producers minimise their storage costs,
protect the quality of their product and maximise the selling price of their
commodities. Our very mission is to provide unparalleled personal attention to
meeting the needs of our customers while treating one another with dignity and
respect, thereby ensuring strength and stability in the ag industry.
We offer complete systems for grain storage, aeration and handling, but in this article we will highlight the importance of hopper tanks and material management.
Chief commercial hopper tanks offer the same ease of installation and unparalleled strength found in the Chief commercial grain bin line. Engineered from the highest quality materials, they provide the long-term reliability and satisfaction our customers have come to expect from Chief. For wet holding, storage or load-out, Chief has the solution to maximising your storage dollar.
In order to do that, we have turned our attention to the design of our hopper tanks and bins and that is what really sets Chief apart.
Exclusive exterior “W” stiffeners
Chief’s exclusive exterior “W” stiffeners are constructed to bear almost twice the weight of other stiffener designs. The plate-to-plate connecting system fuses the stiffener lengths and positively transfers the weight-bearing load down the stiffener column of the silo, while offering the same ease of installation and unparalleled strength found in the Chief commercial grain bin line.
Looking at the features of the stiffeners we can see that having a standard painted or optional hot dipped galvanised substructure with welded legs and ring beams means that a “Super Structure” is available for use in drive-under applications. The G140 (450 g/m2) galvanised coating is standard on all roof panels, sidewalls and stiffeners for superior corrosion resistance. This also means that utilising a four panel per sidewall sheet design, the “V” rib roof provides standard peak load capacities of 3000 to 7500 lbs (1364 to 3409 kgs.). A 45° bottom hopper cone and a 16" (0.4064 meters) discharge opening are standard with Chief commercial hopper tanks and they are backed by a five year limited warranty.
At Chief, we understand that every material handling operation is unique. That is why we offer maximum flexibility, adapting to your specific needs for aeration, dryers, catwalks and towers, conveyors, elevators and handling accessories. We also understand that when you decide to invest in your agri business, it should be for the long term. Chief products are built to meet or exceed industry standards, by using heavy-duty materials and with efficient designs to provide strong, reliable commercial performance you can rely on for years to come.
For optimum longevity, we offer fully galvanised material handling systems to withstand the most corrosive of conditions. With the user in mind, all components feature rugged construction and are designed for easy maintenance. Chief’s staff of engineers is dedicated to continually seeking ways to increase the capacity, efficiency and longevity of all our products, because your time is valuable and time is money out in the field.
