Ultima and Ultima Pro

ULTIMA AND ULTIMA PRO FOR PROFESSIONAL GRAIN DRYING

Ulti­ma is Fin­land’s most advanced grain drying and sto­ra­ge auto­ma­tion sys­tem with ver­sa­ti­le onli­ne ser­vices. The Ulti­ma-cont­rol­led drying process always inclu­des con­ti­nuo­us grain mois­tu­re mea­su­re­ment. With Ulti­ma Pro, you also hand­le batch and silo log­ging. Grain drying has never been so easy and reliable.

Compre­hen­si­ve infor­ma­tion mana­ge­ment

The infor­ma­tion of the drying batc­hes is saved in Ulti­ma’s onli­ne ser­vice eve­ry time a batch is finis­hed. You can check the drying reports right away, return to them later and gra­dual­ly build a com­pa­ra­ti­ve data­ba­se. Through Ulti­ma, you can also hand­le grain sto­ra­ge mana­ge­ment, if you wish. You can direct the dried batc­hes to the selec­ted silos and moni­tor their fil­ling level.

Mois­tu­re mea­su­re­ment direct­ly from the grain

Ulti­ma per­forms con­ti­nuo­us mois­tu­re mea­su­re­ment direct­ly from the grain. Humi­di­ty mea­su­re­ment reduces the need for over-drying, which sig­ni­ficant­ly saves ener­gy over time.

Comple­te remo­te mana­ge­ment via onli­ne ser­vice

In Ulti­ma, auto­ma­tic grain proces­sing is com­bi­ned with a ver­sa­ti­le onli­ne ser­vice, which the user can access anyw­he­re and any­ti­me with their com­pu­ter or mobi­le device. Auto­ma­tion enables con­ti­nuo­us batch drying as set in the set­tings.

Batch log­ging

All infor­ma­tion rela­ted to the drying batch, from the field block to the sto­ra­ge silo, is sto­red in the batch data around the clock. You can easi­ly check batch infor­ma­tion, for example, the time, dura­tion, ini­tial and final weight, mois­tu­re of the grain, drying tem­pe­ra­tu­res of the drying batch. The progress of batch drying can also be chec­ked from a use­ful visual graph. A mutual com­pa­ri­son of batc­hes helps in defi­ning the best drying set­tings.

Silo log­ging

Thanks to silo log­ging, you are always up-to-date on the sto­ra­ge situa­tion in the silo. All sto­ra­ges and with­drawals are recor­ded in the data­ba­se. The infor­ma­tion is sto­red secu­re­ly in a secu­red data­ba­se. Silo log­ging is comple­te­ly trans­pa­rent and backwards-com­pa­tible. The qua­li­ty chain remains under cont­rol and infor­ma­tion can be traced all the way down to the field block level.

Annual report

The annual report pro­vi­des a visual on the use of the grain hand­ling sys­tem on an annual basis. You can see at a glance the pro­por­tions of dried grain varie­ties, quan­ti­ties in kilo­grams, sta­tis­tical data on drying times, tem­pe­ra­tu­res, grain mois­tu­re, silo fil­ling level and so much more. The report also con­tains batch data cards for all batc­hes dried during the year.

A flow chart illustra­tes the sta­te of the process

The flow chart is a ret­ro­fit option avai­lable for the Ulti­ma cont­rol sys­tem. The flow chart pro­vi­des a good over­view of the func­tions of even a complex grain hand­ling sys­tem at a glance. It is also easy to cont­rol the ope­ra­tion of the devices from the flow chart.
