Residue Clean out of Silo/On-Floor Storage

Pneumatic vacuum systems are efficient solutions for evacuating grain from all corners of the storage.

Residue clean out of silo/on-floor storage

Large silos or storage facilities quite often have a considerable amount of grain left after emptying when using mechanical conveying equipment. With mechanical conveying systems, it is not possible to get into all corners for complete pick-up of grain and thus 100% emptying.

This is where the pneumatic vacuum system comes into play. It is an efficient solution for evacuating grain from all corners of the storage. Using flexible hoses in the vacuum line, it is easy to manoeuvre the grain suction head around the silo floor for pickup of the last remaining kernels, for a 100% clean-out of the silo. 

The grain is blown to, and discharged through, a cyclone and onto a trailer.
