HOPPER SILOS
Hopper silos are specifically engineered to store grains, seeds, legumes, pellets, and other products requiring specialized storage conditions. Elevating the stored product off the ground prevents moisture buildup and minimizes the risk of breakage.
These silos not only offer economic savings by eliminating the need for sweeping machines but also streamline foundation work, significantly reducing construction costs and simplifying assembly processes.
Our range of hopper silos encompasses capacities from 43 m3 to 2,016 m3, with diameters ranging from 3.82 meters to 10.70 meters.

VENTILATION SYSTEM FOR HOPPER SILOS
The interior ventilation conduits of the silo consist of highly durable perforated metal cylinders. Strategically positioned within the silo cone, these conduits ensure uniform distribution of air throughout the stored grain mass.
Their design minimizes grain friction during unloading, thereby reducing strain on the silo cone and preventing grain accumulation.
VIBRATING BOTTOM
The vibrating bottom facilitates the discharge of products stored in hopper silos, particularly those with poor flow characteristics such as flour, granulated poppy, small shells, carbonate, soybean meal, and more. Specifically designed for silos featuring a reinforced 60º cone to accommodate the vibration, this system is available in various diameters and can be tailored to fit different silo outlet dimensions.
OVERHEAD VENTILATION CONE / FLOW MASS
Our technical team has developed a FLOW MASS unloading system, featuring a central cone inverted relative to the silo cone, to meet our clients’ diverse needs. This innovative design prevents the formation of preferential unloading channels, ensuring balanced distribution of incoming air.
SUPPORT STRUCTURE
Comprised of hot-dip galvanized structural profile columns reinforced with laminate profiles, the support structure ensures exceptional resistance of the silo against external forces.
To facilitate assembly, the silo comes equipped with chemical anchoring elements. These can be installed after the silo is fully assembled, preemptively averting any potential construction issues.
CONES / SLOPES
Conical sections with slopes of 45º and 60º are available to ensure proper silo unloading and facilitate subsequent cleaning. These meticulously engineered cones are designed to prevent any material accumulation areas, thus minimizing the risk of product contamination during subsequent uses.
The silo outlet dimensions range from Ø270 mm to Ø1200 mm and can be tailored with a diverse array of accessories to suit your specific requirements.
The clearance between the silo outlet and the ground can be either 1 or 1.5 meters, depending on the specifications of your system. This clearance height is customizable upon request..
