Introduction
Hopper Bottom Steel Silo
Hopper Bottom Steel Silo
Efficient Grain Storage and Fast Unloading Solution
Hopper Bottom Steel Silo is designed for efficient grain storage and rapid discharge without the need for manual cleaning. The conical hopper structure allows grains to flow smoothly by gravity, reducing unloading time and minimizing residual material.
These silos are widely used for storing wheat, maize, rice, soybean, feed pellets, seeds, and other bulk agricultural products in farms, feed mills, grain terminals, and commercial storage facilities.
Wide Range of Models and Capacities
We manufacture a complete range of commercial hopper bottom silos to meet different storage requirements.
Silo Diameter: 4.58 – 12.33 m
Storage Capacity: Up to 2,528 m³
Diameter range · Large storage volume
Whether you need a small farm silo or a large commercial storage system, we can provide the appropriate configuration.
Multiple Hopper Angle Options
To ensure optimal material flow and structural safety, the hopper can be manufactured with four different angles:
The hopper angle is selected according to:
Silo diameter
Type of grain or bulk material
Required discharge performance
Local wind load conditions
Seismic requirements
Snow load conditions
