Powering Better Feed Production: R&R Machine Works Heads to BeefEx 2026

For 50 years, R&R Machine Works has helped feed producers build stronger, more consistent operations through dependable equipment, practical engineering, advanced automation, and responsive service.

This September, we are taking that experience to Australia for BeefEx 2026, where we look forward to connecting with cattle feeders, nutrition professionals, operators, industry partners, and innovators from across the global grain-fed beef industry.

We are also proud to sponsor the BeefEx Charging Hub—a fitting partnership for a company focused on helping operations stay connected, energized, productive, and prepared for what comes next.

More Than a Place to Recharge

The Charging Hub provides attendees with a place to reconnect their devices, continue conversations, and prepare for the next session, meeting, or opportunity.

That idea closely reflects how R&R approaches feed production.

The strongest operations are not built around a single machine or one isolated technology. They are built by connecting equipment, people, information, service, and production goals into a system that works together.

At R&R, we help customers “recharge” and strengthen their operations through:

• Greater production visibility

• More consistent grain processing

• Automated moisture and surfactant control

• Integrated mill and facility automation

• Dependable equipment and roll service

• Scalable modular systems

• Remote monitoring and technical support

• Complete millwright and site-development capabilities

Our goal is not simply to install equipment. It is to help producers gain more control, more confidence, and more value from every load.

Better Processing. Better Feed. Better Cattle.

Better Processing. Better Feed. Better Cattle.

Cattle operations depend on consistency—at the bunk, in the pen, and across the entire feeding program. That consistency begins long before feed reaches the animal.

Grain moisture, conditioning, milling, steam, roll settings, automation, equipment performance, and operator decisions all influence the production process. When these variables are managed through disconnected systems or frequent manual intervention, maintaining repeatable results can become difficult.

R&R Machine Works provides integrated grain-processing solutions designed to help feed operations improve control across the production process.

Key Outcomes:

Improve Feed Consistency Better processing can support more consistent feed production and help the mill execute the intended nutrition program more reliably.

Increase Efficiency Automation, responsive controls, and reliable equipment help operations gain more value from each load while reducing waste and unnecessary manual intervention.

Gain Confidence in the Operation Real-time visibility, monitoring, alarms, and remote access help operators understand what is happening throughout the mill.

Build for the Future Scalable systems, modular designs, enterprise automation, and ongoing support help customers prepare for sustainable growth and increasingly automated operations.

Enterprise Automation That Keeps Operations Connected

R&R Enterprise Automation gives operators the ability to monitor and manage mill performance in real time.

Rather than relying on separate controls and disconnected information, an integrated automation platform can bring equipment status, production settings, alarms, sequencing, and operational data into a coordinated system.

Depending on the facility and project scope, R&R automation can support:

• Automated startup and shutdown sequences

• Recipe and production management

• Equipment monitoring

• Alarm notifications

• Historical production data

• Remote diagnostics

• Secure technical support

• Automated interlocks

• Reduced routine manual intervention

• Progress toward near-lights-out operating capabilities

• 
  

"Near-lights-out capability does not eliminate the importance of experienced operators. It allows routine functions to be automated while qualified personnel focus on safety, quality assurance, maintenance, exception management, and higher-value production decisions." Like the Charging Hub at BeefEx, enterprise automation helps keep the operation connected and ready to respond.

R&R Hydro: Precision Grain Conditioning

The R&R Hydro Automated Grain Conditioning System is designed to improve moisture control by continuously monitoring incoming grain conditions and automatically adjusting water and surfactant application. This helps reduce dependence on occasional manual adjustments and allows the system to respond as grain conditions change.

Benefits can include:

• More precise moisture application

• Improved conditioning consistency

• Automated water and surfactant control

• Real-time monitoring

• Better visibility into usage and system performance

• Reduced manual intervention

• Remote service and support capabilities

For feed producers, better control of grain conditioning can create a stronger foundation for the milling and feeding process that follows.

Built to Work. No Work On.

For R&R, innovation is only valuable when it works in the realities of a feed operation.

Our equipment, automation, and systems are designed for demanding environments, practical operation, serviceability, and long-term performance.

That commitment has guided R&R since 1976 and remains central to everything we build today.

As we celebrate 50 years, we are continuing to expand our capabilities through:

• Advanced grain-processing equipment

• Enterprise automation

• R&R Hydro technology

• Modular and site-designed mill systems

• Surfactant consulting and solutions

• Roll manufacturing and service

• Millwright construction

• Electrical and controls integration

• Expanded manufacturing and service resources in Mexico

• Global technical and operational support

We are proud of the equipment we manufacture—but we are equally proud of the relationships, technical expertise, and service that stand behind it.

Recharge, Reconnect, and Talk Feed Production

We invite BeefEx attendees to visit the R&R Machine Works Charging Hub to recharge their devices, reconnect with colleagues, and start a conversation with our team.

Whether you are evaluating a new mill, expanding an existing operation, exploring automation, improving grain conditioning, addressing roll performance, or planning for future production needs, we would welcome the opportunity to learn more about your operation.

We are excited to travel from Texas to Australia and connect with the people helping shape the future of grain-fed beef production.
