How to get DDPs into your volumetric blender – a starting point by manufacturer
Ranco Fertiservice
Ranco has developed some key pieces of equipment to accommodate Wolf Trax DDPs over the years.
Whether you currently have a micronutrients bin suited to granular micronutrients, or no bin at all, Ranco is
willing to work with you in order to properly outfit your current system.
What exactly are your needs? Are you running only one micronutrient product and have a lot of space to
add a single micro bin? Or, are you working with multiple micronutrients and are short on space? Below are
a couple of easy solutions to bolt-on and go.
Single dry additive bins (Picture 1) are available at a cost of ~$3,400* including motor control unit and
controls. Electronics are typically an additional ~$500 - $1,000 above this.

and controls. Electronics are typically an additional $1,000- $2,000 above this.

If your system was built by Rancan pre-1996 you may, in fact, have a Ranco blender. If this is the case you
have 2 options including a) purchasing a Rancan converted micro bin or b) purchasing a Ranco dry additive
feeder. Either should plug & play seamlessly into your operation.
For Rancan systems built post-1996 you should use the Rancan converted micro bins only.
If you have additional questions regarding your specific blending setup please contact Rancan and they will
be more than happy to walk you through your particular options.
