Heavy duty underpile reclaimers and silo unloaders

Rugged, high-quality bulk storage and reclaim systems offer proven performance, reliability and low maintenance. A wide range of storage and reclaim systems are available, offering storage of up to 3,000,000 CF with reclaim delivery rates as high as 1000 CFM.

Silos and Bins

High performance reclaim systems are integrated in steel or concrete vertical silos, dome storage structures or flat storage warehouses. A wide range of options to fit every need, including smoothwall steel tanks, Drive-Thru silos, galvanized and corrugated bins, and monolithic concrete silos. All storage structures are specifically designed to accommodate the dynamic-load requirements for bottom reclaimers.

Track-driven reclaimers provide a very positive method to drive the auger from the perimeter of the silo instead of from the centre as with many conventional systems.  In addition a continuous shield over the back of the auger provides a sheltered conveying area to transfer the material to the discharge area.

Cantilever storage and reclaim systems are designed to accommodate a wide range of material applications in flat-bottom vertical storage structures up to 44’ in diameter. Standard systems are designed with steel bolted tanks or, optionally, with concrete silos. For lighter applications corrugated bin systems are also available.

Cone-bottom storage and reclaim systems are ideal for materials with moderate flow characteristics such as dry meals, chemicals, plastics, and small wood residuals. Standard systems are typically available with 30, 45, or 60 degree hoppers in either steel tanks or corrugated bins up to 44' in diameter.

For high-volume storage of free-flowing materials such as wood pellets, dry grains and plastic pellets, the CleanSweep offers a storage and reclaim system with multiple draw downs in the floor and a wheel-supported reclaimer that provides total clean out without the need for personnel entry into the silo. CleanSweep systems are available in corrugated bins, welded steel tanks, or monolithic concrete silos, diameters up to 130'.

Mining Applications

In addition to the above apron feeders are excellent for heavy-duty reclaim of coal, cement, minerals, ore, boulders, etc.  Please refer to the Feeders section of our website for more information.
