How do you clean a silo?
Silo cleaning methods generally involve specialized equipment for remote, dry cleaning. Types of silo cleaning equipment is typically categorized as either, whip, pneumatic, or enhanced pneumatic. While all methods can be used to clean a cement silo, they do not provide the same level of speed and efficiency.
What type of silo cleaning method is the best?
The fastest and most effective way to clean a silo is through the use of an enhanced pneumatic system. This form of remote, dry cleaning is the most powerful silo cleaning method available. USA Silo Service uses a unique, proprietary silo cleaning method, The Boss™, which combines an enhanced pneumatic silo cleaning system with a unique clean-out head.
Silo cleaning equipment is typically one of three different types of remote, dry silo cleaning machines: whip, pneumatic, or enhanced pneumatic. is up to two-thirds more powerful than conventional silo cleaning methods. The Boss silo cleaning system accelerates the cleaning process by removing more material faster and more efficiently than any other clean-out method, including the whip system.
This means less time spent on-site and less downtime, which equals immediate cost savings. USA Silo Service further maximizes your cost savings by evaluating material removed during cleaning to see if it can be salvaged for use. Anything that cannot be used can be removed via our vacuum truck service.
When do you clean a silo?
To prevent unplanned downtime, you should have your cement silo cleaned regularly by a professional. However, if you've noticed a change in your production schedules, it could be due to material buildup or blockages. As material builds up inside your silo, it causes material flow issues that can slow down your daily operations.
Once a silo begins to lose flow, this accelerates the buildup over time and can lead to additional blockages. These blockages can bring your entire operation to a standstill when left unchecked. Blockages and material flow issues can also stress your silo beyond what it was designed to withstand, resulting in delamination, cracking, and even structural wall failure. It's therefore essential to schedule a professional silo cleaning at the first sign of production delays.

Regular silo cleaning ensures efficient operation. It can also increase your silo's usable lifespan, minimize big-ticket repairs, and help you avoid more costly cleaning expenses that can result from emergencies.
