Cone Bottom Grain Steel Silo: A Superior Storage Solution
Cone Bottom Grain Steel Silo are mainly used to store free-flowing granular products such as corn, rice, wheat, soybeans, feed pellets and plastic pellets. This type of silo has a conical bottom and is divided into three parts: the silo roof, the silo body and the cone bottom. It is usually erected on a supporting steel frame structure so that the stored products can be easily unloaded by gravity.
Cone Bottom Grain Steel Silo: Essential Features and Benefits
Cone bottom grain steel silo, also known as cone-bottom steel silo, cone-bottom silos, or cone-bottom steel tube silos, are primarily used for storing granular products with good free-flowing characteristics such as corn, rice, wheat, soybeans, feed pellets, and plastic pellets. These silos provide protection against external insects and other influences, making management convenient.
The Unique Design of the Silo Body
The silo body is designed with a smooth interior surface, free of steps or flanges, which facilitates the easy discharge of stored grain. Additionally, the silo is elevated from the ground, not only preventing stored materials from moisture but also allowing for interconnection between adjacent steel silo through conveying devices, making it convenient to retrieve grain as needed.
The Structural Strength of the Silo
The cone-bottom grain steel silo is crafted with a cone-shaped design that enhances the structural strength and stability of the warehouse, enabling it to withstand the weight and pressure of grain more effectively.
Customization and Flexibility
The silo can be customized according to specific needs, adapting to different sites and storage requirements. It typically offers a more convenient unloading process, achieving fast and even discharge, reducing the risk of grain blockage.
Advantages Over Traditional Storage Methods
Compared to traditional grain storage methods, cone-bottom grain steel silo have many advantages. They usually employ an assembled structure, making installation quick and convenient, allowing for rapid construction and use. The steel silo boasts excellent sealing performance, which effectively shields the grain from external environmental factors. This protection includes safeguarding against dampness and pests, ultimately ensuring the grain’s quality.
Material and Design Standards
The silo’s cylindrical wall, circular reinforcement belts, and supporting steel frames are made from hot-dip galvanized corrugated steel plates. The cone bottom of the grain steel silo, manufactured by Henan Haok Bang, is designed according to standards D-4097 or ASTM D-3299. Depending on the type of grain and material stored, the cone angle is typically designed to be 45° or 60°. The structure of the steel silo cone bottom depends on the product type to be stored. Generally, granular grains with free flow, such as corn, wheat, soybeans, and feed pellets, are designed with a 45° cone bottom, while powders or other materials that are difficult to flow are suitable for a 60° conical bottom.
