30 July 20242 min reading

Sukup Manufacturing Co. has announced the upcoming release of Synk™, a cutting-edge automation solution for grain management. This development follows Sukup's recent acquisition of Ramco Innovations, expanding their technological capabilities.

Sukup Manufacturing Co., a family-owned company based in Sheffield, Iowa, is set to revolutionize grain handling with its new product, Synk™. This innovation comes on the heels of Sukup's acquisition of Ramco Innovations, a value-add automation distributor. The combination of Sukup's expertise in grain handling and Ramco's automation technology promises to bring advanced solutions to farms and other operations.

Matt Koch, Sukup's Chief Marketing Officer and third-generation family member, highlighted the company's dedication to innovation and practicality. "At Sukup, we create solutions that not only work but are dependable and reliable," said Koch. "We don’t want to overpromise. Let's go beyond creating a demo...let's show can it be awesome in real life."

The new product, Synk™, will feature integrated controls and monitoring systems for operational grain management, offering a user-friendly interface. This technology aims to provide intelligent monitoring and real-time problem-solving capabilities, enhancing efficiency and reliability for users.

Hank Norem, CEO of Ramco Innovations, expressed enthusiasm about the collaboration. "Together, we will be bringing more capabilities to farms and other operations through automation," Norem stated. "Phase one is building a platform around bin-monitoring solutions. Future phase-ins of components will create an entire ecosystem."

Sukup ensures that their products meet the practical needs of their users. "We are farmers ourselves," Koch reiterated. "We don’t want this to be clunky or difficult for the end user."
