The Clipper AGM 224 is designed to meet the low maintenance and easy cleanout requirements of today’s seedsman. The AGM 224 features a heavy-duty steel formed frame, scotch ply hangers, a heavy-duty eccentric shoe drive and bottom blast fan. Screens The AGM 224 shoe has been designed with two 24-½” x 22-¼” screens: one screen for the top and the other one for lower separation. Over 150 different sizes of perforated metal or wire cloth screens are available. AGM 224 Commodity Flow The commodity is fed into the hopper and is spread evenly across the full width of the top screen. The product then moves across the top screen, which has openings larger than the product itself. The large foreign material is “scalped” off while the good product falls through the screen. The bottom screen is set up for sifting. The bottom screen openings must be smaller than the commodity being cleaned. Trash, weed seeds and splits are “sifted” through the bottom screen while the good product passes over it. Next, the product is routed through a column of air from the bottom blast fan. This blast of air effectively removes any lightweight trash and dust that may have remained after screening. Good clean product is discharged at the bottom of the air chamber.

Eclipse 324 Commodity Flow The commodity is fed into the hopper and is spread evenly across the full width of the top screen. The product then moves across the top screen, which has openings larger than the product itself. The large foreign material is “scalped” off while the good product falls through the screen. The bottom two screens are set up for split flow sifting. The bottom screen openings must be smaller than the commodity being cleaned. Trash, weed seeds and splits drop through the bottom screens while the good product passes over them. The bottom two screens can also be set up as a scalp/sift flow by removing the two-way splitter. Next, the product is routed through a column of air from the bottom blast fan. This blast of air effectively removes any lightweight trash and dust that may have remained after screening. Good clean product is discharged at the bottom of the air chamber.

The Clipper Eclipse 334 is the second in a line of small to moderate sized cleaners designed to meet low maintenance and easy cleanout requirements of today’s seedsman. The 334 is engineered to fill the need for a conveniently sized, versatile cleaner, and is designed to be portable or stationary. The Eclipse 334 utilizes ball trays for screen cleaning and an efficient air flow design for effective sizing and separation.

Screens & Commodity Flow

The Clipper Eclipse 334 features three (3) screen decks. Each screen is 34”x 34”. The top screen removes product larger than the desired seed. The “scalped off” material exits the front of the machine, while the good product falls through the screen.

The bottom two screen decks can be configured in either a split-sift or scalp-sift configuration. Trash, weed seeds, foreign material, and splits drop through the bottom sift screens while the good product passes over them.

Next, the product is routed through a positive column of air from the bottom fan. The aspiration effectively removes any lightweight trash and dust that may have remained after screening.

Clipper offers over 175 different sizes of perforated metal or wire mesh material to accommodate virtually all agricultural commodities.
