Grain processing facilities require precise, reliable, and efficient systems to handle, clean, store, and process large volumes of agricultural products. At SketchArt Engineering, we design equipment and plant layouts that ensure smooth material flow, minimal losses, and long-term durability.
Our engineering solutions are tailored for wheat, corn, barley, oats, rye, and other grain types, covering both primary processing and storage systems.
We provide complete design and engineering services for:
Grain Handling Systems – belt conveyors, chain conveyors, screw conveyors, and bucket elevators.
Cleaning and Sorting Equipment – sieves, aspirators, and optical sorters for removing impurities.
Drying Systems – continuous-flow and batch dryers for moisture control.
Storage Facilities – silos, bins, and hoppers designed for optimal capacity and easy discharge.
Load-Out and Packaging Systems – equipment for bulk or bagged product handling.
Structural Steelwork – towers, catwalks, and maintenance platforms for safe operation.
Capacity and Process Assessment – Defining throughput requirements and grain types to be processed.
Layout and Flow Optimisation – Designing plant layouts for efficient grain movement and minimal cross-contamination.
3D Mechanical Design – Using Autodesk Inventor, SolidWorks, and Tekla Structures for accurate, build-ready models.
Strength and Stability Calculations – Ensuring structures and equipment withstand operational loads and environmental conditions.
Manufacturing and Installation Support – Coordinating with trusted partners for high-quality fabrication and assembly.
Dust generation and explosion risk
Grain spoilage due to moisture or pests
Downtime from equipment wear and blockages
High energy use in drying operations
Compliance with food safety and hygiene standards
We address these challenges with dust control systems, wear-resistant materials, and energy-efficient drying technology.
Our designs prioritise energy efficiency, reduced waste, and optimised storage management, helping facilities meet both economic and environmental goals.
Proven experience in grain handling and processing facility design
Solutions for multiple grain types and processing technologies
Integration of mechanical, structural, and automation systems
Compliance with EU and international food safety regulations
End-to-end project delivery from concept to commissioning
