Storage and Holding Bins
Bin and small silo systems for in-process surge, finished product holding, and raw material storage.
Bin and small silo systems for in-process surge, finished product holding, and raw material storage. Includes level monitoring, bottom discharge configuration, and extraction conveying matched to the process flow rate.
Facet Engineering storage bins: above-process holding bins with individual discharge to a common conveying system, level indicators, and access hatches
01 / 06Overview
In-process storage bins provide surge capacity between process steps, allow different sections of the plant to run at different rates, and enable shift-end and end-of-day product holding without stopping upstream equipment. Facet Engineering designs and fabricates in-process bins and small silos for grain, seed, flour, meal, feed, and processed products. Bin geometry is engineered to the material's flow properties to prevent bridging and ratholing. Level sensors provide point or continuous level indication for the control system. Bottom discharge options include flat-bottom bins with extraction screws, conical hoppers with gravity discharge, and live-bottom bins with rotating floor sweeps for difficult materials. All bins include access manholes and dust containment lids.
