Bran Large Storage Silos

What is bran?

Bran is the outer husk of cereal grains such as wheat, rice, oats, barley, etc.
Bran is typically used to make live stock feed and fertilizer.
Recently, bran has been used as an additive to foaming agents for use in health food products and packaging.

Why the Circle Feeder Was Selected

When a large quantity of bran is stored in a silo, it is difficult to discharge because the high pressure of material causes bridging at the lower part of the silo. This is also aggravated by the low bulk density of bran (0.4 kg/l)

The Circle Feeder is the ideal discharger of bran from large silos due Lo its large inlet diameter which prevents bridging. The Circle Feeder is available in a variety of diameters and discharge capacities to suit your silo.
