Industrial silo systems for controlled storage and continuous production

In many industries, silo systems are essential for storing powders, granules and dust in a controlled and efficient way. Properly designed silo systems not only provide storage capacity but also play a critical role in ensuring a stable flow of material to and from the production line. Siloma offers industrial silo systems tailored to the specific needs of each plant.

A modern silo system is more than a steel structure. It is an engineered component of the process, designed with material flow, safety and maintenance in mind. Siloma evaluates each application by examining the type of material, required capacity, filling and discharge rates and available installation space.

Typical features of Siloma silo systems include:

• Optimized geometry for reliable mass flow or funnel flow
  
  

• Robust construction suitable for the environment and material
  
  

• Integration with screw conveyors, rotary valves or pneumatic lines
  
  

• Instrumentation for level measurement and process monitoring
  
  

To ensure trouble free operation, Siloma also considers issues such as bridging, rat holing and segregation, which can affect the performance of silo systems. Where necessary, flow aids like aeration pads, vibrators or special liners are incorporated into the design.

The advantages of well designed industrial silo systems include:

• Improved production planning and inventory control
  
  

• Reduced manual handling and associated risks
  
  

• Cleaner and safer storage areas
  
  

• Better control over material quality and consistency
  
  

By integrating silo systems with dust collection equipment and conveying technologies, Siloma creates end to end solutions that support continuous production and long term plant efficiency.
