Discharge of bulk material

The different systems for continuous material discharge ensure high reliability

The reliable and dosed discharge of bulk material from silos or containers is the basis for the trouble-free operation of downstream conveyors and processes. This is particularly relevant for 24/7 operations such as combustion and CHP (combined heat & power) plants. Flowable or free-flowing material is continuously transported to the transfer point by constructions with chains, rods or carriers. Whether you need a pull or push rod discharger, a drag chain discharger or a screw discharge system – we will provide you with a solution that’s exactly tailored to your material.
