6 Features of SRON Spiral Silos For Cement Storage

Oct 13, 2022Keywords: SRON Spiral Silo, Cement Storage Silo, Cement Steel Silo

 SRON spiral cement silo is mainly used to store cement, fly ash, slag powder, clinker, grain and other powdery and granular materials. So what advantages does it have over other silos? Let our professional and technical personnel tell you the product advantages below!

1. Good overall performance and long life. During the construction process of cement steel silo, it is completely constructed by special equipment. During the rolling process, the outer wall of the silo is bitten into a spiral ridge that is 5 times the thickness of the material and 30mm-40mm wide, which greatly enhances the bearing capacity of the silo and makes the overall strength, stability, and shock resistance of the cement steel silo better than other silos. In addition, the material of the silo body can be selected according to the requirements of the anti-corrosion and grinding strength of the stored material, and the optimal plate ratio can be selected, so that its normal service life can reach 30-40 years, much longer than the service life of other silos.


2. Good airtight performance and wide use. Because the cement steel silo adopts special equipment for rolling silo which can be bent and bitten, it can ensure the quality of any part of the silo body in terms of technology, so its sealing is particularly good, and it can store cement, fly ash, slag powder and other powders. It is widely used in building materials industry, such as cement plants, power plants, and clinker mill plant.
3. Short construction period and low cost. The spiral cement steel silo is constructed on site, and the silo roof is installed on the ground. The forming and bending line speed of SRON construction equipment can reach 5 m/min, and no scaffolding and other auxiliary facilities are required, so the construction period is extremely short. The spiral cement steel silo is made of thin steel plates, and the weight is only equivalent to the weight of the steel bars of the reinforced concrete silo of the same capacity, which greatly reduces the cost. In addition, because we can bend and form two different materials inside and outside the cylinder by double-layer bending method, the engineering cost of storing corrosive materials in chemical and environmental protection industries can be greatly reduced.


4. Small floor area and easy to manage. The spiral cement steel silo is different from other cement steel silos, and the height and diameter can be arbitrarily selected within a large range. The distance between the two silos is as small as 500 mm, which can make full use of the space and reduce the floor space. The spiral cement steel silo has a high degree of automation, and is equipped with temperature measurement, material level monitoring and other equipment, which is very convenient for users to manage.

5.High strength. The continuous spiral undercut of the cement steel silo is five times the thickness of the base material, which greatly enhances the load resistance of the cement steel silo.
6. Light weight. The self-weight of the SRON spiral cement steel silo is only 1/6 of that of the concrete silo of the same volume. Its weight is the same as the weight of the steel bar of the concrete silo of the same volume, which can greatly reduce the load of the basic structure and the cost of building the silo.


The above article is to introduce you to several key points about SRON cement steel silo. Of course, there is still a lot of information related to the cement steel silo, and we will continue to update it in the future.
