Are you using a addative on this maize/corn? We have been using pionner 11a44 silage inoculant on our maize in the UK. Through using this addative the face of the pit stays in perfect condition for weeks, if kept dry.

dang skippy it burns some fuel. On an average day it burns up 62 gallons. It's a CAT 3408 505 hp 6 cylinder mounted on its own trailer. The fuel tank for it sits underneath it on the trailer frame.
technically it's called a kernals, but yes you are correct. And yes it is packed like silage. Its high moisture corn, meaning it has a moisture reading of 24-32 percent, this helps it to ferment.
that thing is nuts i didnt see what runs the roller? and thats the only way you can load the thing? couldnt you have elavaters from the trucks right into it?
By elavaters, you mean unloading augers like they use to pile the corn on the ground I'm assuming. They don't keep up with the mill to make it work. They are not fast enough, and can't unload enough at one time. They can't keep up with the mill or 150-280 the trucks we get in one day. The scales are open from 8 a.m. to 9 p.m. Usually we are done rolling by 10:30 p.m. on an average day. On a really busy day or if we get a break down we may not leave unitl midnight or even 4:00 a.m.
We are based in Dalhart Texas which is in the north west corner of the panhandle. The only maintanence to the mill is every 3 days we grease all 24 bearings and the 13 drive shafts that have u-joints to allow one roll to be adjusted. the other roll is on a fixed drive line that does not move. At the end of the season we have the rolls sharpened by a local machine shop that specializes in roll maintanence. It has 6 individual mills each with 2 rolls. each roll is 48" long & 12" in diameter.
it truly is an eye opener to c the way u guys do things over there. makes our kit look like toys. have a look at my vids and c how different it is when buckraking. hats off to a good video!!
Well thank you, I would have more video of it but it's hard to drive a tractor and use a camera at the same time. I made a custom mount for it, but I still have to deal with the sttings of the camera. twice while filming we had a break down. those videos I will not post because of certain words being said by me and my partners.
I'll have more video soon. monday we had a break down on the mill. one of the rolls broke. it snapped like a toothpick (seriously it did). the sound of that roll breaking is something you can't describe. It's something you have to see to beleive.

that's after rolling 1.2 million bushels so it's slower than what it was 2 weeks ago.
