A father-son duo turned a 3D-printed project into an autonomous solution that levels grain and breaks up crust in grain bins.

The Grain Weevil is a great example of how rugged industrial automation is finally reaching agricultural environments. The mechanical and electrical design challenges of operating safely inside grain bins are significant — vibration, dust ingress, and temperature swings demand carefully selected industrial-grade connectors and sealed enclosures. Looking forward to seeing how the next generation handles autonomous navigation in dense particulate environments.
