The SL 716 store loader is designed for medium-sized farms, featuring a 66 cm wide and 16.5 m long conveyor belt for efficient storage of crops like potatoes, onions, and beet. Its improved trough-shaped belt increases conveying capacity while ensuring gentle crop handling and user-friendly operation.
For enhanced performance, the SL 716 can be equipped with the optional GRIMME Quantum infeed conveyor, extending the conveying length up to 17.7 m. The Quantum system maintains a consistently low drop height, even at swivel angles up to 180°, improving crop flow and increasing overall storage efficiency.
The machine also offers advanced automation with new store filling functions, including automatic swivelling between set limits and complete section filling. The “Flow Control” system enables easy operation of the entire storage line, while an optional radio remote control allows convenient management of key machine functions.
Highlights
The SL 716 ensures comfortable and efficient operation through the IBX 200 ISOBUS operator unit, with the option to add a remote control and CCI 800 terminal for enhanced control. Its user-friendly interface allows operators to manage key functions easily and adapt quickly to different storage requirements.
It delivers high conveying capacity with excellent crop protection, using a trough-shaped belt with GRIMME flight profile and “walking side walls” to minimize friction. Crop- and belt-protecting flights ensure smooth conveying, while the Quantum principle maintains a consistently low infeed height, improving crop flow and reducing damage regardless of swivel angle.
Advanced automation is provided through the StoreMatic system, which offers different levels of automatic store hall filling with sensor support. Combined with the ISOBUS terminal, it allows fast and intuitive machine setup, including saving and recalling settings for efficient and consistent storage operations.
