Vandergriff 181 Game Changer Conversion.
Vandergriff Inc has led the industry in the move to narrower saw spacings and gin stand conversions. The first 181 conversion was done by A.L. Vandergriff at Elbow Gin in Visalia, CA in 1996. Since then, we have developed a "game changer," rib, and worked with Namoi Co-op in Australia to convert over 30 161 gin stands to 181's.
In 2014, we converted 2 Continental 161 Gin Stands to 181's at Moseley's Gin and Whse. in Abbeville, AL. These gin stands have run trouble free for 2 seasons now, and can easily gin at 22 BPH.
Not just anyone can "convert" gin stands. Some are finding this out right now. It requires precision machine work on the rib rail. This same rail has to be installed properly. Any sloppy work in this area, and the conversion is just not going to gin like it should. Finally, we have our game changer rib. It is CNC machined from Domestic 1018 closed die steel forging (not inferior Chinese steel) and simply can not be duplicated by the competition. It is strong. It is accurate. It will hold up to the stresses and strains 200 HP and higher motors will apply to them. They will not lose little seed. The profile change promotes better seed discharge, which keeps the roll looser and allows you to go on up with capacity.
"I had Vandergriff Inc. convert 2 of my 161 Gin Stands. They have run for 2 seasons now averaging 20 BPH. I have had no issues with these conversions. One of the best things I have done to my gin plant was to do this." Ed Berry. Moseley's Gin and Whse. 334-585-2345
At this writing, there could be even more exciting news about Vandergriff 181 Conversions. Stay tuned.
Any questions about about our conversion, call Ed Berry at Moseley's Gin and Whse. He has run 2 conversions for 2 seasons now with NO issues except increased capacity.
