Product Overview
Ag Growth International Inc. (AGI) announced the addition of two new conveyors to its product lineup: the FX4 SP and FX4 18S. Both models are engineered for high-capacity grain handling, offering improved performance, fuel flexibility, and operational efficiency for farms of all sizes.
Paul Brisebois, AGI Senior Vice President for North American Farm and Global Portables, said the launch underscores AGI’s focus on developing “smarter, more efficient grain handling solutions for farm operations of all sizes.”
FX4 SP Conveyor: Self-Propelled and Farm-Ready
The FX4 SP features a self-propelled mover kit with hydraulic steering and all-terrain tires for improved mobility and tighter turning capability around bins. Powered by a 37 HP Vanguard gas engine, it delivers up to 8,000 bushels per hour (BPH) through a 10-inch tube and 15-inch belt.
Key Features
- Pinch roller design for improved belt traction
- Retrofittable rear wheel drive mover kit
- Removable top plate for easier maintenance
- Pivoting skid plate under the hopper for protection and cleanout
- Low-profile collapsible hopper for improved bin clearance
- Available in 39’, 44’, and 49’ lengths
“The FX4 SP is built to move and maneuver in tight spaces,” said Kent Woods, AGI Director of Global Product Management. “Its self-propelled design and powerful drive system make grain handling faster, easier, and more efficient.”
The FX4 SP Conveyor will be available through AGI’s Batco, GrainMaxx, Hutchinson, and Westfield brands.
FX4 18S Conveyor: Bigger Belt, Bigger Capacity
The FX4 18S is an electric top-drive conveyor designed for higher capacity performance. With a 12¾-inch tube and 18-inch belt, it unloads up to 10,500 BPH—approximately 43% higher than the FX4 15S.
Key Features
- Updated collapsible parallel hopper cloth frame
- New steel hopper option for added durability
- Larger drive roller for increased throughput
- New pinch drive roller for improved belt traction
- Direct grain flow discharge hood
- Available in 39’ and 44’ lengths
“The FX4 18S is all about capacity and control,” said Woods. “We’ve upgraded the belt, rollers, and hopper to give farmers a conveyor that performs under pressure and simplifies setup.”
