Silo unloader HYDRACONE

hoppergrainbiomass

The Hydracone system is designed to unload products that may be heavy or lightweight, powdery or fibrous, dry or wet, which are not naturally free-flowing, stored in conical bottom silos. Principle: The Hydracone runs on a hydraulic transmission. An Archimedes screw driven by a hydraulic motor sweeps the cone of the silo in a rotating movement to completely extract all the product. The hydraulic drive delivers high torque at low speed thanks to Morillon’s Booster start-up system. Advantages: .This system can completely empty the silo whilst reducing the risk of product bridging and guaranteeing its smooth operation thanks to its exclusive start-up mechanism. .Maintenance is possible when the silo is full, thanks in particular to easy access to the transmission components. .All moving parts are enclosed, ensuring personal safety, and all drive transmission components are separated from the product, preventing the possibility of contamination. Hydracone range: .For silos with a diameter of 2.5 metres or more and a cone angle of 45⁰. Options: .Explosive atmospheres and high temperatures (up to 150°C) .Stainless steel version (304 or 316L) .Possibility of using food grade oil .Green System, an eco-friendly concept using biodegradable lubricants, un concept éco-responsable par l’utilisation de lubrifiants biodégradables.
