We manufacture equipment that sizes and separates the good, bad, and ugly in
products ranging from harvested grain to M&M’s® to plastic pellets. After one
hundred years in business the world has accumulated a substantial installed
base of Carter Day equipment. As a testament to our products’ functionality
and our parts support, many of these machines keep running and running and
running.
Our continuing success comes from the design/build of innovative, low mainte-
nance machines, best evidenced today by a dozen patents in force and our no
quibble two year warranty. When it comes to selling, most capital goods manu-
facturers will give away applications advice; we’re no exception. However, we
distinguish ourselves from competition by offering clear-cut performance repre-
sentations with every machine we sell. We mitigate the resulting business risk
by knowing your industry and basing our claims on field experience and lab
tests.
Over the years we have standardized our product elements in the interest of
quality and cost control. Still, modular construction and numerous feature
choices allow us to configure a machine to your particular order. If that’s not
enough, we have the resources (in every respect) to respond to your extraordi-
nary sizing and separating challenge.

A We introduced our 24” Modular
Scalperator in 1990. It is a
major technological advance over
our previous design in both feed-
R ing and aspiration.
The Scalperator primary purpose
T
in the seed corn industry is to
remove cob and fines after the
shellers.
E The Scalperator is the
preferred machine for
pre-cleaning because it offers
efficient large impurity removal
R and aspiration which the optional
scalpings deck on the shellers
cannot provide.
Molded urethane feed roll accurately controls the
process feed rate and provides a positive shut-off.
D
HTD drive provides increased reliability and
decreased downtime with minimal adjustment and
maintenance.

ance and minimizes rock and other particulate
buildup behind the scalping reel.
