Times have changed over the last century, and so has
Seedburo. It has grown to offer technologically advanced solutions in the agricultural industry.

of the largest distributors of ag-related equipment
in the United States. Seedburo first began exporting
equipment worldwide in 1940 through an extensive
network of international sales personnel.
Other acquisitions and arrangements have allowed Seedburo to exclusively distribute many lines
of equipment to the agricultural industries. Some of

these products are the various grain probes, boerner
and precision dividers, count-a-pak seed counters,
DICKEY-john moisture testers, computer grain dockage and test weight scales, Ohaus grading scales, official USDA grading and inspection visual reference images and inspection stations, germinators, pneumatic

Sukup Manufacturing Company, Sheffield,
Iowa, U.S., is a family-owned, full-line grain drying,
handling and storage equipment and steel building manufacturer, serving the grain industry since
1963. The company manufactures non-stiffened and
stiffened grain bins for on-farm storage as well as
commercial operations. Sukup bin sizes range from
15-feet-in-diameter, three-ring farm bins to 156-feetin-diameter, 29-ring commercial bins. Sukup commercial bins are available with 5,000, 15,000, 30,000,
50,000 or 100,000-pound roofs.
Sukup also manufactures single and multiple
module cross-flow, mixed-flow and tower dryers.
Sukup cross-flow dryers feature the patented Quad
Metering Roll System, which prevents over-drying
and ensures more consistent moisture content. Sukup stacked dryers also feature the patented Grain

Cross-Over System, which reduces variation in moisture content between the inner and outer portions of
the columns as well as between the two sides of the
dryer. Sukup Mixed-Flow dryers feature exclusive,
energy-efficient, vacuum-cooling technology and
convenient single conveyor unloading. Sukup tower
dryers have capacities up to 10,000 bph.
The Sukup line of products also includes bucket
elevators, drag conveyors, support towers, catwalks,
loop systems, centrifugal and axial fans, bin floors and
supports, unloading equipment and steel buildings.

Tapco Inc., St. Louis, Missouri, U.S., manufactures
one of the most widely accepted lines of nonmetallic
elevator buckets (cups) in the industry. Tapco stocks
over 1 million buckets in 178 sizes manufactured in
polyethylene, nylon and urethane for immediate delivery. Aluminum, ductile iron and fabricated steel buckets
are available by request.
Popular styles include CC-HD (Heavy Duty), CC-XD
(Xtreme Duty) and Super EuroBucket. The CC-XD is molded with
35%-50% more resin than the
classic CC-HD - to guarantee
very dense, long wearing surfaces. Super EuroBuckets replace
steel buckets and provide equal
or greater capacity for elevators.
State-of-the-art injection mold-

ing machines assure the most consistent product in
the industry. Strong, thick walls "give" and "yield" to
withstand hang-ups and return to their original shape.
CC-HD buckets are known worldwide for their
strength and precise discharge characteristics. Tapco
maintains 15 million elevator bolts in 60 sizes in six
styles: No. 1 Norway, No. 3 Eclipse Slotted, Fanged,
Pointed Fanged, Western 3-Prong and Reference 70
style - available in carbon steel,
stainless steel, 316 stainless, 18-8
stainless, zinc plate and yellow zinc.
Tapco also has a large inventory of abrasion-resistant sheeting,
hanger bearings, drag flights and
belt splices. For more information,
