SILO STRUCTURE
Normally, the silos are installed on a steel construction according to the plant design. The steel construction can be extended with machine towers featuring decks and access. In many projects, it is an advantage to have the process equipment close to the storage facility in order to handle the products with a high degree of care. Another alternative is where the silo cells are part of a building, with the silo cells being an integrated part of the building structure.

HOPPERS
The hoppers constitute the bottom of the silo cells. The hoppers can be delivered in many different ways with square or round outlet, symmetrical or with one or two vertical sides. The properties of the products are of high importance when designing the hoppers with regards to outlet size, angle of repose as well as outloading capacity.

SILO WALLS
The walls are either executed as single wall trapezoid or as plain walls. The type depends on the product, height of the silo and the importance of absolute emptying. The panels are bolted together and the edges make vertical octagonal columns in a very smooth way. Possibility of connecting both smooth and profiled walls.
