Sukup Manufacturing
Grain Storage
The company added grain storage to its product line in 2001, and since then, its grain bins have grown to become the industry’ s leading grain storage systems.
The bins are engineered for strength, reliability and easy assembly, offering capacities for farms of all sizes and needs. Each bin showcases Sukup ' s expertise in engineering, with patented anchor brackets, a safety door and exceptionally strong roof standards on every model. These features not only enhance the structural integrity of the bins but also ensure long-lasting performance.
This focus on durability is crucial for farmers who require reliable storage solutions that can withstand various environmental challenges over time.
Grain Drying
Efficient grain drying is a crucial step in protecting crop quality and preparing for storage. Sukup offers a full lineup of drying options designed to meet the diverse needs of farming operations, from small family farms to large-scale commercial systems.
The Mixed-Flow Grain Dryer is the only dryer on the market that combines the even drying and superior grain quality of a mixed-flow system with the fuel-saving vacuum-cooling technology of a tower dryer.
This patented design delivers high test-weight grain while using less fuel per bushel dried, reducing operating costs. With no screens to clog or clean, even in cool or damp weather, this ensures reliable performance and lower maintenance, maximizing both efficiency and uptime during harvest.
The Cross Flow Dryers are designed for full-heat application, discharging hot grain that’ s gradually cooled in the bin over several days. This process reduces both dryer size and cost while protecting grain quality. As heat moves from the center outward, the grain closest to the heat dries first. Sukup’ s quad metering rolls accelerate that, allowing for more even drying and ensuring uniform results.
The Tower Dryers provide fast, efficient drying for large farm
operations and commercial elevators without sacrificing control or efficiency.
Across all systems, the company’ s focus remains the same: protect the grain, preserve the yield and help farmers get the job done right.
Grain Handling
Grain handling is critical to keeping operations running smoothly, and Sukup’ s systems are built for both performance and protection.
From bucket elevators and conveyors to their innovative Paddle Sweep, Sukup offers versatile equipment that maximizes efficiency while reducing downtime.
The Paddle Sweep in particular improves bin cleanout while minimizing grain damage and improving operator safety. With durable construction and thoughtful design, the handling equipment is made to stand up to the demands of harvest season, year after year.
Innovation in Action
Sukup’ s team works closely with farmers to continually improve products. Innovations like advanced bin features, paddle sweep technology and user-friendly control systems all come from that hands-on, real-world experience.
A major step forward in recent years has been the creation of Synk, powered by Sukup. Synk will revolutionize the way you store, monitor, handle and condition your grain. With modular automation, adaptive grain handling, superior data integration and quicker decision-making capabilities than any other system available, it’ s designed to make one of the most important parts of your business simpler, smarter and safer.
Sukup’ s focus remains the same: delivering innovation that works in the field— not just on paper.
Safety Is InGRAINed at Sukup
Safety is more than a feature at Sukup, it’ s a foundation. The company prioritizes integrating key safety components into every product they build, from its grain bins to handling equipment.
Beyond manufacturing, the company is actively involved
