Silo design
Depending on the tasks, silos can be of different designs. Volume, geometry, means of amplification can change. The geometry of the silos can be either in the form of a cylinder or in the form of a rectangle. The advantage of a cylindrical shape lies in the absence of angles, and hence places of caking of the material. With reduced flowability of raw materials, it is possible to use vibrators and shakers in the lower part of the silo. The silo discharge opening can be equipped with a gate as well as a sector feeder. Often, a screw conveyor is attached to the discharge flange, which allows moving the raw materials to the desired distance. Silos can be installed both indoors and outdoors.
