Premier Vertical Cement / Fly Ash Storage Silo and Feeding System Manufacturer

Premier Vertical Cement / Fly Ash Storage Silo and Feeding System Manufacturer


The Trusted Manufacturer for Vertical Silo Storage and Feeding Systems

As a leading vertical silo and feeding system manufacturer, terraequipment specializes in designing and fabricating high-capacity, space-saving storage solutions essential for modern concrete batching plants. Our bolted vertical silos, available in capacities from 50 MT to 300 MT, are engineered for safe, efficient, and precise storage of both **cement** and **fly ash**. The core of our solution lies in the integrated feeding system, which includes high-accuracy load cells, optimized screw conveyors, and flow-assistance devices tailored specifically to handle the flow characteristics of cement and the finer, more cohesive nature of fly ash, ensuring zero material interruption and precise batching control.


Engineering Excellence in Vertical Silo Design

The vertical orientation of our silos minimizes the footprint on valuable plant space while maximizing storage capacity. Our fabrication process adheres to stringent international quality standards, resulting in durable, leak-proof, and easy-to-erect bolted structures. Crucially, the internal geometry of the hopper and the material discharge section are customized based on the stored material. For **fly ash**, we integrate steeper conical angles and high-performance fluidization pads to counter bridging and rat-holing, whereas cement silos utilize optimized aeration for standard flow. This dual expertise establishes terraequipment as a versatile and reliable bulk material storage solution provider.


Integrated Feeding System for Cement and Fly Ash

Silo Structure & Capacity Vertical Bolted Design
  • Modular, bolted construction for cost-effective transportation and fast site erection.
  • Capacities ranging from 50 MT to 300 MT, maximizing vertical space utilization.
  • Specialized high-efficiency dust collector to minimize emissions during pneumatic loading.
  • Advanced Pressure Relief Valve (PRV) system for safety against over-pressurization.
Precision Feeding System Accurate Batching
  • High-torque screw conveyors optimized for the specific bulk density of cement/fly ash.
  • Precision electronic load cells for continuous, high-accuracy inventory and dosage weighing.
  • Automatic control gate and butterfly valve for immediate material cut-off.
  • Fluidization/Aeration systems designed for controlled, smooth material extraction.

Material Flow Assurance: Cement vs. Fly Ash

While cement typically requires standard low-pressure aeration for discharge, **fly ash**—due to its extremely fine particle size and low bulk density—demands a more rigorous fluidization approach. terraequipment’s silos intended for fly ash are equipped with wider, multi-point aeration pad arrays and sometimes auxiliary discharge aids like vibro motors, ensuring the material remains in a free-flowing, fluid state right up to the screw conveyor inlet. This meticulous design prevents common plant shutdowns caused by material bridging and guarantees consistent, accurate additive feeding into the batching process.


Essential Features for Complete System Performance

  • High-level and low-level sensors for automated inventory management and safety cut-offs.
  • Integrated safety railing, climbing ladders, and maintenance platforms meeting safety codes.
  • Pneumatic tanker inlet with quick-coupling for clean and rapid material transfer.
  • Control panel interfacing seamlessly with the concrete plant's central batching software.

FAQs — Vertical Storage Silos and Feeding

Q1 What capacities are available for your vertical storage silos?
We manufacture vertical bolted silos in standard capacities ranging from 50 MT, 100 MT, 150 MT, up to 300 MT, with custom sizing available upon request.
Q2 How is the vertical silo feeding system integrated with the batching plant?
The feeding system utilizes a calibrated screw conveyor connected to load cells and controlled via a PLC, which precisely doses the cement or fly ash into the weighing hopper based on the batching plant's recipe.
Q3 What is the key difference in storing cement versus fly ash in your silos?
Cement requires standard aeration for discharge, while fly ash, being finer and lighter, requires specialized, more intensive **fluidization systems** and often steeper hopper slopes to ensure consistent flow and prevent blockages.
Q4 Are your silos suitable for easy relocation between sites?
Yes, our **vertical bolted silos** are designed for fast disassembly and reassembly, making them highly economical for projects requiring frequent relocation or sites with restricted access.
Q5 Do you supply the dust collector and safety accessories with the silo?
Absolutely. Every silo is supplied as a complete unit, including a high-performance dust collector, pressure relief valve (PRV), level indicators, safety railing, and access ladders.
