Circular silos by HÄNDLE are unsurpassed in storing and proportioning of raw materials – including sticky, wet, and abrasive bulk materials – according to the
“first in – first out” principle and coupled with little space requirement.
The essential characteristics
Low space requirements
Storage of material according to the “first in, first out” principle
Combination of homogenization, aging, storage, and dosing of the material to be discharged
Uniform moistening of the material
» No drying out of the material on the surface
Complete discharge even with bulk materials with poor flow properties
Modular design
Increased plasticity due to the pressure of the material column and the aging process
The HÄNDLE circular silo series
A circular silo is the only piece of equipment that enables a supply of absolutely homo-geneous, uniformly moist body for giving shape to green products with low stress and texture levels. The unique souring and homogenizing effects of circular silos are relatable to the “first in – first out” principle in combination with hermetically sealed storage and the raw material’s own weight pressure. Circular silos are avail-able with standard storage capacities up to 500 m³ and discharge capacities ranging from 8 m³/h to 50 m³/h (depending on the velocity of flow and the material composition).
The discharging auger rotates around the tower axis of the silo. The material outflow takes place via a central outlet chute from which material can be drawn off in any arbitrary direction.
HÄNDLE’s discharging mechanism, though, is designed to reliably prevent bridging and guarantee smooth discharging of slow-flowing material.
Our competence in such mechanical processes has made HÄNDLE a preferred supplier of products for similar areas of technology, too. Individual tasks will be tested process-related and improved in our HÄNDLE laboratory.
“Just touch a lump of clay – and you’ll be stuck on it for good” Like numerous companies established during the
19th century age of industrialization, the HÄNDLE Company has had an eventful history.
