Grain Silo Cleaning and Residue Removal with Vacuum Systems

Ensure complete cleaning of industrial silos and on-floor storage areas using efficient pneumatic vacuum solutions designed for total grain removal.

Residue Clean-Out for Silos and On-Floor Storage

Even with mechanical conveyors, complete grain silo cleaning can be difficult—especially when trying to reach corners and edges within large silos or flat storage areas. After mechanical unloading, significant amounts of grain often remain, leading to waste, spoilage risk, and hygiene issues.

Kongskilde’s silo vacuuming system provides a powerful and flexible solution for the cleaning of grain storage silos. By using lightweight hoses and a mobile suction head, operators can manually collect leftover grain from all areas of the silo or floor surface. This method ensures thorough emptying—removing every last kernel and reducing the need for manual sweeping.

The grain is vacuumed into the pipeline, transported through the pneumatic system, and discharged through a cyclone directly into a trailer or container for reuse, sale, or proper disposal.

Whether you’re maintaining conventional or organic grain facilities, this solution supports efficient, hygienic, and safe cleaning of industrial silos.
