Bentall Rowlands has been a worldwide leader in the grain storage industry for nearly 50 years.
With global suppliers and such a wide selection of products, Bentall Rownlands has all the resources and expertise to provide you with a grain storage system that meets your specific requirements.
The 45 and 60 degree hoppers are standard. Silo roof panels, wall sheets and stiffening struts (up to 3mm thick) are sheared and formed from pre-galvanised steel sheets, with a minimum of G600 galvanising.
All of Bentall Rowlands’ silo ranges are designed, detailed, programmed and manufactured at one site.
A Bentall Rowlands silo can provide short and long term storage of grain, oil seeds and other granulated free flowing materials, including wood pellets, with mechanised loading/unloading options and full range of grain management systems to provide safe storage. Maximum term of storage depends on the parameters of the product: moisture content, impurities and temperature.
Hopper Bottom Silos
Standard ranges from 3m diameter 15 tonnes storage to 10m diameter 1,700 tonnes, all hoppers are designed for high cyclic loading, i.e. high usage of product in and out and at high tonnage rates.
Hopper silos can provide temporary wet grain storage as part of a grain drying plant and other “buffer bin” applications in silo plants. Storage of other free flowing granulated products, wood pellets and feed pellets in relevant industrial plants.
Flat Bottom Silos
Standard ranges from 3.0m diameter 15 tonnes storage to 27.0m diameter 13,725 tonnes.
Key features of our storage silos:
-
Strong true conical roof for maximum load bearing capacity.
-
Silo cylinder with M10 bolts to maintain strength without regular re-tensioning
-
Silo stiffeners with strong fish plated joints for long term stability
-
Silo sidewall sheets utilize a shallow corrugation to minimise ‘hang up’ of material on walls and provide a cleaner safer silo.
Smoothwall Silos
Standard ranges from 3.0m diameter 15 tonnes storage to 10.0m diameter 900 tonnes with wall heights up to 15 metres.
The Aylsham smoothwall round silos form part of a fully integrated system designed to store grain, pellets, soya, dust/by-products and other difficult to flow product types.
Feed Hoppers
2m to 4m silo diameter and from 0.5 ring to 4 rings in height. This range of silo is designed for the storage of granular feed and the capacities range from 2 tonnes to 50 tonnes.
G600 galvanised steel, shallow corrugated sidewall sheets, grade 8.8 spun galvanised fixings and dome headed bolts in the cone are just some of the standard features which ensure our range of silos will pass the test of time.
Catwalks And Platforms
Standard range of catwalks are available in widths from 1,200mm to 2,000mm wide in 200mm increments. They utilise a galvanised double or triple stringer design depending on the conveyor loads and free-span required. The double stringer design allows for the complete internal area to be decked using hot-dip galvanised flowforge.
Water Tanks
Standard ranges from 2.74m diameter 7,000 litres to 14.63m diameter 595,000 litres. Heights from 3.91 up to 11.66 m. İts covering most capacity requirements supplied to agriculture, horticulture, sports irrigation and industrial use. Options include roofs/covers and different types of lining material.
Cleaning/Grading
Bentall Rowlands offers a wide range of rotary drum grain cleaners with or without aspiration. Rotary and flat deck, pre-cleaners, cleaners and graders with a range of capacities. The machines remove light dust particles as well as separating good quality grain from splits and trash. The rotary drum cleaner with aspiration is essential for cleaning cereals that will be stocked for a long time, avoiding overheating which can be caused by chaff, husks, split grains etc.
Material Handling
Bentall Rowlands offers equipment for grain and other granular product transportation, load and unload-design, manufacture, supply, assembly, commission and service maintenance.
Belt and bucket elevators for the vertical conveying of granular and pelleted materials.
Chain and flight conveyors for the horizontal and inclined conveying of granular and pelleted materials.
Screw conveyors are available in “U” trough or tubular designs for the horizontal, inclined and vertical conveying of granular and pelleted materials.
