The collocation between bolted type cement silo and concrete batching plant

Cement silos are generally used in the bulk cement storage of concrete batching plants, suitable for storing various bulk building materials such as cement, fly ash, etc. The silo body is equipped with a material level system that can display the location and stock of materials, and the hole device can avoid material deposition too long and strong. The cement bin and screw conveyor can be used together to transport materials to various locations. The bin body is easy to install, safe and reliable, and is an ideal bulk storage tank for various mixing stations.

Cement silos generally have two types, integral welding type and bolted segmented type, with an output of 50 tons to 500 tons. The integrally welded  cement silo is suitable for transportation by flatbed trucks, and the bolted segmented cement silo is suitable for container transportation.

Cement silo is consisted of the following parts:

1. Dust collector (located at the top of the silo)

2. Pressure relief value (located at the top of the silo)

3. High/Low level indicators

4. Manual butterfly valve at the discharging place

5. Inlet pipe dia.100mm (for feeding cement into the silo)

6. Break arch

7. Safety railing at the top of the silo

8. Ladder to the top of the silo

9. Silo cylinder

10. Supporting leg

Product features of cement silo:

1.The cement silo body is connected by high-strength special bolts, with precise structure and exquisite appearance.

2.All silos implement standard modularization, streamlined production, and short production cycle to ensure fast delivery.

3.Convenient transportation and saving freight; No matter how much capacity, it can be loaded in 40' containers, load 2 sets 100T silos at the same time, which greatly reduces the freight.

4.Reliable sealing structure; using special sealing strips, it can withstand the test of 200 degrees high temperature. After the sealing strip is compacted, when the cement is fed into the silo for the first time, the dust will automatically penetrate into the small gaps, that has a perfect self-sealing effect.

5.Highly cost-effective and practical performance; It is not restricted by transportation, it is quick and convenient to disassemble and assemble, and has a long practical life. It can be reused at multiple construction sites and greatly save the user's secondary investment.

If the cement silo is used alone, it does not interfere with the concrete batching plant, but if it is used in the concrete batching plant, the relationship between the two is complementary and very close. The collocation between bolted type cement silo and concrete batching plant must be done well in order to effectively improve the work progress and maximize the work efficiency.
