Climbing the scales

摘要

Precia-Molen has recently installed a new ABS-XI14 hopper scale and associated software which has increased efficiency in a busy grain operation situated within Southampton Docks in the UK. The first grain silo at Southampton was originally constructed in 1982 by a consortium of five members who initiated the project in response to the increasing surplus of UK produced cereals. This original silo comprised eight concrete silos with a capacity of 11,000 tonnes and was commissioned in July 1983 in preparation for the harvest that year.
