A true sample taken from a truck, railcar, or barge of coal, can only be obtained while the material is still in its container. Once it leaves, the individual load mixes with other materials, and will loses its true identity. You can rely on the James A. Redding Company's auger sampling systems to provide a true and accurate sample from the original container, thus retaining its identity.

All our auger sampling systems are designed in accordance with ASTM standards D-4916 (Standard Practices for Mechanical Auger Sampling), D-2234 (Standard Practice for Collection of a Gross Sample of Coal, and D-2013 (Standard Method of Preparing Coal Samples for Analysis).

Auger sampling systems can be as simple as an auger, crane, and sampling module run by a single operator, or we can provide a completely automated auger sampling operation.

Samples can be indexed for as many as 32 separate suppliers. U.S. Patent No. 4,179,929, issued to James A. Redding Company, covers many aspects of auger sampling. Rely on us whether you need a stationary, portable, or platform auger.
