How much do you know about the advantages and disadvantages of horizontal cement silo?

Advantages of horizontal cement tank;

The horizontal cement silo is a new type of silo that integrates into the current environmental protection situation. Because everyone loves it.

Advantage 1: Free foundation, easy to install.

The horizontal cement silo is composed of several legs, a lower cone, a silo body, a feeding pipe, a ladder, a safety explosion-proof valve, etc., which can disperse the force, as long as the road surface is hardened under the horizontal cement tank. Place the application, avoid the inconvenience of doing foundations and embedded parts, and save costs.

Advantage 2: Low height and wide application fields.

The discharge cone of the horizontal cement silo is a square cone. The silo body is composed of profiled plates and aluminum materials. The structure is welded by electric welding. The height of the silo body is 2.9 meters. The height of the 50-ton cement silo after installation is also close to 9 meters long, while the overall height of the horizontal cement tank is slightly lower, which is especially suitable for application in the factory area, and the roof of the industrial factory does not need to be removed for installation.

Advantage 3: No need to do outer sealing, reduce costs.

The horizontal cement tank is inspired by the design of the container. It has high compressive strength and good sealing performance. Because of its low height, it eliminates the need for external sealing and greatly reduces the cost.

Note: During the whole process of removing the horizontal cement silo (cement tank), it is strictly forbidden to use a hammer to eliminate the powder accumulated in the bulk cement tank, which can only be eliminated with a woodworking chisel.

However, the disadvantages of horizontal cement tanks are also very obvious:

1. Because the horizontal concrete silo is a rectangular concrete storage, it is very easy to produce uneven material height when feeding powder into the tank according to the feeding pipe. There are both sides of the pipe, but the height asymmetry still exists, so there is no way to add a monitoring system such as a material level meter to the horizontal cement silo.

2. There are many discharge ports, and the conveyor equipment has only one screw conveyor, which can cause the screw conveyor to block when conveying materials. In the whole process of specific application, it is usually only used in two of the discharge ports will be ok.
