Silo Cleaning
Silo cleaning is a fundamental operation in industrial settings, especially in sectors like agriculture, manufacturing, and bulk material handling. Silos serve as vessels to store materials, such as cement, coal, chemicals, and other substances.
Over time, the accumulation of materials can occur on the inner walls of the silo, resulting in the formation of blockages that impede the material’s flow and reduce the storage capacity.
Silo cleaning involves the removal of these accumulated materials to restore the silo’s original storage capacity. As materials get denser within silos, it is often needed to get rid of buildup from the inner walls and disperse clumps of material that have become bonded together.
Visible signs that a silo requires cleaning include material discharging unevenly in chunks and the need for increased fill cycles due to incomplete emptying. Moreover, off-center loading caused by build-up inside the silo can exert uneven pressure on the walls, potentially leading to equipment damage.
In order to overcome this problem, Suprabakti Mandiri offers MartinPLUS Silo Cleaning Solutions to address the issue of eliminating build-up in confined spaces, restoring flow, and material rate, as well as regaining silo storage capacity design.
By restoring optimal storage capacity and eliminating build-up, industries can improve productivity and reduce downtime, leading to cost savings. This proactive maintenance service minimizes equipment damage and prolongs the lifespans of silos.
We provide this service for any industry that uses silo storage facilities such as the livestock feed industry, cement, agriculture, shipping, logistics, petrochemical industry, oil & gas, and other industries.
Our silo cleaning process is utilizing the Martin® Heavy Duty Whip. Equipped with pneumatic controls, the cleaning head can be precisely positioned to remove material build-up without posing any risk to the silo. This Whip eliminates the necessity of confined space entry allowing efficient and safe cleaning operations.
