Silo systems - Overview
Silos for the storage of bulk goods of all kinds are available in many different design variants. In accordance with the requirements of the product to be stored, as well as to the requirements of the customer and in consideration of constructional specifications, hb-technik chooses the best design and the correct features of the silos in cooperation with the customer.
Available silo types:
- Indoor silo angular
- Indoor silo round
- Outdoor silo round
- Outdoor silo angular with thermal insulation
Discharge of the silos
- fluidised bed bottom (aeration)
- vibration bottom discharge
Silo material
- stainless steel
- aluminium
- steel coated - for NON-FOOD applications
Capacity
- from 1 m³ to 120 m³
stored goods >> bulk goods
- powders: Flour, spices, starch, additives, milk powder etc.
- crystalline: salt, sugar
- granulates: pellets, plastic granulat
- grain: cereal grain
Outdoor silo angular have got the best price-performance ratio among the external silo types. The modular design allows worldwide shipping in an economic way. Disassembled in segments, the modules can be transported cost-effectively on regular trucks or in seafreight-containers.
As a standard, this design features a double coat with insulation which protects the stored bulk ingredient from weather influences.
Storage capacities: 10 m³ to 90 m³ (special sizes up to 120 m³ on request)

Indoor silos angular with vibration discharge are suitable for the storage of bulk goods with difficult properties. Through the vibration discharge and the steep cone a product flow is ensured and separation of bulk goods with different densities is vastly avoided.
The modular design allows a space-saving, cost-effective transport and also an optimal installation in buildings and insertion in segments. Thanks to the angular base, the installation space can be optimally utilized.
Storage capacity: from 1 m³ to 90 m³

Outdoor silos round are suitable for most bulk materials and are used with particularly high demands on durability and hygiene.
Within the available silo types, this design is the costliest due to the type of construction. The silos have to be transported in a whole piece to the installation site.
Storage capacities: from 10 m³ to 120 m³ (other sizes on request)

Round indoor silos with fluidized bed or vibration bottom discharge are suitable for most bulk materials and are used with particularly high demands on durability and hygiene.
Within the available silo types, this design is the costliest due to the type of construction. The silos have to be transported in a whole piece to the installation site.
The discharge can be carried out either with a fluidized bed or with a vibration bottom discharge.
Storage capacities: from 10 m³ to 120 m³ (other sizes on request)

Indoor silos for installation in suitable and approved storage rooms are in many respects an interesting solution for bulk material storage.
The modular design allows space-saving and cost-effective transport and enables the installation in buildings in segments. Due to the angular base and and the fluidized bed bottom, low height losses (silo bottoms with small inclination), the available space can be optimally utilized.
Storage capacity: from 1 m³ to 90 m³
