Silo Discharge System
The silo discharge system is a set of mechanical and control equipment for removing stored material from the silo in a uniform and controlled way. Depending on the material, silo bottom shape and required flow, it is designed in various models and allows feeding of downstream equipment in livestock, poultry, aquatic and concentrate feed lines.
Features
- Design matched to the type and properties of the material.
- Discharge screws and control gates can be used.
- Uniform, controlled discharge of material.
- Vibration and aeration systems can be used.
- Can be designed for round and square silos.
- Can be connected to the weighing and batching system.
- Manual and automatic control.
- Can be designed with several discharge outlets.
- Wear-resistant equipment used.
Applications
- Discharging grains from storage silos
- Discharging meal and powdered raw materials
- Discharging mineral powders such as calcium carbonate
- Feeding mills and mixers
- Conveying material to the batching and weighing system
- Discharging pelleted feed and finished products
- Controlling material flow in concentrate lines
Frequently Asked Questions
What type of discharge system suits a silo?
The choice depends on the material type, bulk density, moisture, stickiness and the geometry of the silo.
Can powdered materials like calcium carbonate be discharged?
Yes. With suitable equipment such as discharge screws, aeration systems and anti-bridging devices, powdered materials can be discharged.
Can the silo discharge system be connected to batching?
Yes. With weighing equipment, control gates and an automation system, silo discharge can be controlled automatically.
