How to design a silo system for food or beverage industry?
Whenever a food or beverage production company must be supplied with tons of raw material every day, the question of building a silo system arises because the labour-intensive manipulation of big bags or sacks is then no longer necessary. There are numerous options for designing and equipping silos. That is why an AMMAG silo system combines the actual silo with other system parts such as:
- Silo made of stainless steel or aluminium, optionally with insulation
- Silo filter and over / under pressure protection
- Explosion protection equipment (e.g. rupture discs)
- Sensors for level and pressure, optional weight recording
- Truck filling:
- external fan for dried and cooled conveying air
- Sreening machine and magnetic grate in a blow-through circuit
- Silo head room drying
- Vibratory discharge machine as a discharge aid
The material can then be distributed from the silo system to further processing, for example by means of mechanical or pneumatic conveying.
