Excerpt from Receiving Rice From Farm Trucks at Commercial Dryers
During rice harvest, dryer operators and farm ers Want to unload rice trucks at the dryer as quickly as possible. Any delay in unloading, sampling, weighing, and moving the rice to bins can cause a line of loaded trucks to form at the dryer.
Methods used in receiving rice were studied and recommendations for improving methods and equipment were developed. Four methods of um loading trucks were studied: (1) Self-dumping, (2) hook hoisting, (3) cradle hoisting, and (4) hydraulic hoisting.
The following are the computed costs per truck load for receiving an annual volume of truckloads of rice by the four methods.
