New technology enhances automation and raises the standard of efficiency in grain storage
The future of grain storage has arrived — and it has a name: 999DRY SYSTEM. Motomco, a benchmark in grain moisture measurement in Brazilian agribusiness, has just launched its latest technology at the 6th Post-Harvest Grain Symposium of Mato Grosso do Sul (VISPGMS2025).
Post-harvest handling has become increasingly strategic in agriculture, with a direct impact on the quality and commercial value of grains. The adoption of technologies such as proper drying, controlled storage, and temperature and humidity sensors has helped reduce losses, increase efficiency, and strengthen the competitiveness of Brazilian agribusiness — especially in a context of growing demands for traceability and preservation in the global market.
It is within this scenario that the 999DRY SYSTEM stands out, offering a modern and robust solution to meet these demands intelligently.
Minute-by-minute precision and real-time data
Designed for implementation in structures such as hoppers, dryers, silos, and shipping units, the 999DRY SYSTEM expands the possibilities of post-harvest automation, allowing for precise moisture control throughout the entire chain.
“At the dryer’s intake and output, for example, it registers the moisture percentage, indicating precisely the level at which the grain enters and how it exits, optimizing quality control,” explains Manoella Rodrigues da Silva, Marketing Manager at Motomco.
According to her, the main advantage of the 999DRY SYSTEM is its automation capability. It automatically collects samples in a continuous flow, covering all stages of the operation. With measurements taken every minute during drying, the system provides real-time data, enabling smart decision-making on the spot.
“It’s a breakthrough in speed and accuracy, enabling precise measurements in places where this was previously not possible,” Manoella highlights.
Tadeu Garibotti, Motomco’s Commercial Consultant, points out that the system performs continuous measurements, with data integrated into the SGU – Unit Management System, a software developed by Motomco that consolidates all collected data into graphs, spreadsheets, and reports to facilitate management and operational planning.
“This information is available to the client online and in real time, enabling more assertive decisions regarding the process, performance, and product quality,” adds Garibotti. He emphasizes that the equipment was developed to meet an existing market demand for more efficient quality control and greater traceability.
The 999DRY SYSTEM is available for demonstration with real usage data at a grain storage facility, at the Motomco booth during the Post-Harvest Symposium, which takes place from Wednesday (28) to Friday (30) at the Majestic Hall Event Center in Ponta Porã (MS).
“The symposium is the ideal environment to showcase this technology. We have high expectations, both during the event and for post-sales,” says Manoella, reinforcing that the device reflects Motomco’s commitment to transforming the grain sector with accessible and effective technologies.
