Tenders Make Moves
September 11, 2008 
Find the right tonnage capacity and versatility in tenders on display at this year’s Midwest Ag Industries Exposition (MAGIE) and other equipment shows.
Hopper Bottom Tender Traiiler, Adams Fertilizer Equipment
Adams Fertilizer Equipment will feature an adjustable height discharge auger at this summer’s shows. The 304 stainless steel hydraulic side auger — which is standard equipment on both of Adams’ site-specific tenders and the Hopper Bottom Tender Trailer — adjusts from 7 feet to 17 feet and has a slide gate clean-out, roll tarp, and conveniently placed controls.
1612 Tender, Ag Systems
The 1612 Tender from Ag Systems will be hitting the road this summer. It’s a 16-ton rear discharge unit that can hold 500 cubic feet of material. Its 12-foot hydraulic drive auger can unload at a rate of 5,000-plus pounds per minute. The 1612 features a two-compartment hopper and electric roll tarp, plus the hopper and auger are made of 304 stainless steel.
Willmar Sideshooter Tenders, AGCO Corp.
The Willmar 16- and 24-ton Sideshooter Tenders from AGCO Corp. move up to 2 tons of material per minute. Contributing to that efficiency are four- or six-compartment hoppers that can carry a variety of materials. Steep, 40-degree sloped sides dispense material quickly and completely through a large diameter, 17-foot auger (20-foot optional on the 24-ton).
Nurse boxes, Barber Engineering
For 60 years, Barber Engineering has been expanding its line of nurse boxes, continually improving the quality and function. Today, there is a wide selection of Barber Nurse Boxes to choose from, ranging in capacity from 4 to 25 tons with both side and rear discharge available. Popular features include: mild (powder-coated finish) or stainless steel welded design; easy handling of fertilizer, grain, and seed products; frame, flatbed, or trailer mount depending on the model; and replacement parts manufactured by Barber to guarantee quality.
SDT-MH 24 Tender, Chandler Equipment Co.
The 24 ton capacity SDT-MH 24 Tender features Chandler Equipment Co.’s uniquely designed side discharge auger system. The one-piece side folding design — which comes standard with 304 stainless steel auger and tube — will provide customers with a greater discharge height, yet still be able to discharge material into planters and other low profile implements.
Side Discharge Tender, Dempster
Dempster Industries’ 2007 model 16-Ton Side Discharge Tender reaches 18 feet to allow greater discharge height capability for equipment clearance and improved operator view of the single unit 10-inch unloading auger. Easy access to operation controls provides the operator separate control to both the horizontal and side augers, allowing rear horizontal auger unloading.
Discharge Tenders, Doyle Manufacturing
Show attendees will get to see Doyle Manufacturing’s many options on rear and side 10- or 16-ton discharge tenders, and focus on all the available tender combo units. The conveyor is excellent for unloading fertilizer or soybeans and is constructed of 12-gauge 304 stainless steel.
Nurse Unit, Precision Tank & Equipment
Again this year, Precision Tank & Equipment (PT&E) will be exhibiting its flashy custom-designed and manufactured nurse tanks. With payload capacities of up to 3,500 gallons, the PT&E Nurse Unit can be sized to meet the individual needs of any customer.
Tender, Ray-Man, Inc.
Ray-Man, Inc. offers its wide choice of tenders in painted 409 stainless steel or unpainted 304 stainless steel. Capacities range from a 10-ton truck mount to 30-ton semi-trailers with several discharge options such as rear, side, and overhead augers and a folding belt discharge for seed delivery.
