The international group of companies “PromInvestService” is the official representative of Borghi S.p.A. (Italy) — a European manufacturer of high-tech equipment for the agricultural and grain-processing sector. Borghi equipment is successfully operated at grain elevators, storage facilities, and processing plants.

 

Purpose and Application

The Borghi SP automatic sampler is designed for accurate and representative sampling of:

  • grain crops;
  • oilseeds (sunflower, rapeseed, soybean);
  • legumes and other bulk materials;
  • processed products (meal, cake).

Sampling is performed from trucks, railway wagons, silos, and receiving hoppers. The equipment ensures fast and objective quality control without altering the physical properties of the product.

Automation and Sample Transportation

The collected sample is automatically transported to the laboratory via a pneumatic conveying system, eliminating manual handling and reducing human-factor influence. The process is fully automated and suitable for high-capacity grain intake lines.

 

Advantages of the Borghi SP Automatic Sampler

  1. High Sampling Accuracy
    Uniform material collection along the entire probe length guarantees reliable laboratory analysis results.
  2. High Operating Speed
    Sampling from any point of a truck body or railway wagon takes only a few seconds.
  3. Safe and Convenient Operation
    An electric control panel and remote control option improve operator safety. A video camera with display output is available as an option.
  4. Robust Design
    The sampler is made of wear-resistant materials, resistant to dust, moisture, and temperature fluctuations.

FOUR SAMPLING PROBE OPTIONS — YOUR CHOICE

Depending on the grain type, conveying system, and quality control requirements, four sampling probe options are available, allowing the sampler to be precisely adapted to any production conditions.

Available probe types:

  1. Single-duct probe — a versatile solution for stable and uniform sampling under standard operating conditions. Suitable for most grains and bulk materials.
  2. Double-duct probe — provides enhanced accuracy by simultaneously sampling from two flow zones. Recommended for high-capacity lines and applications with increased quality control demands.
  3. Screw probe — designed for dense, difficult-flowing, or non-uniform materials. Ensures reliable sampling even under challenging operating conditions.
  4. Slot probe — collects samples across the entire width of the material flow, ensuring maximum sample representativeness. Ideal for continuous grain flow monitoring.

Choosing the right probe allows the sampler to be perfectly matched to your process, improving analytical accuracy and reducing the influence of human error.
