Cement Silos

ELKON horizontal cement silos are preferred in cases where the silo location is planned to be changed frequently or in projects with height restrictions. In horizontal cement silos designed by experienced engineers of ELKON, materials with similar properties such as cement, lime, fly ash, sand etc. can be stored. Horizontal cement silos are used by placing them on the ground without the need for any foundation and ground connection, and when they need to be transported, they can be loaded and transported on the truck without the need for a crane in a very short time by means of adjustable telescopic legs. 40 and 70 ton capacity models are used both for storage and dosing. These silos with heavy-duty structures have been designed for both sea and land transportation. With axle and tyres which are presented optionally, the silo can be easily towed to the desired location on its own structure.

The cement stored in the cement silos can be quickly discharged to the cement trailers (bulk carrier) by means of ELKON telescopic cement loading bellow. This system has a special structure with support legs allowing the bulk carrier parking under the discharge point and is equipped with a suitable bellow for feeding the material. ELKON telescopic cement loading bellow is equipped with level indicator to stop loading and lift up the bellow when it is in contact with the cement (material filling process is finalized). The bellow is also equipped with fan filter system to prevent powder during the material filling process. The system includes a control panel as well.

Cement material supplied with big bags or bags can be transferred into cement silos by means of ELKON Big Bag/Bag Pneumatic Cement Feeding System. ELKON Big Bag/Bag Pneumatic Cement Feeding System consists of cement feeding hopper, intermediary feeding screw, pressure tank, compressor, loading crane and control panel. This feeding system, which has a capacity of 15 tons/hour, is equipped with 2 tons crane to lift the big bags and dispatch into the feeding hopper. The complete set of ELKON Big Bag/Bag Pneumatic Cement Feeding System fits into 1 unit 40’OT container and thus it can be easily transported to overseas countries.

ELKON Bag Cement Feeding System consists of cement feeding bunker, intermediary cement feeding screw and control panel. The operator puts the cement bag into the cement feeding hopper and tears it by means of the cutters on the hopper. Then the cement is transferred to the cement silo by cement screw. This system can be used to feed 1 unit of cement silos as well as 2 units of silo by using distribution valve.
