Silo systems for plastic pellet storage

December 23, 2024

Introduction to Plastic Granules

Plastic pellets are a common form of raw material used in the production of plastic products. They are small granular materials made from plastic through processing and

granulation.Plastic pellets usually have good flowability and compressibility, which makes it easy to transport, mix, and injection mold during the production process.Plastic granules play a vital role in the production of plastics and can be used to make a variety of plastic products, such as plastic bags, plastic containers, plastic drums, etc.Plastic granule Storage Silo system is one of the important equipments in the plastic production process, which can improve the production efficiency and ensure the quality of raw materials.

Plastic Pellet Storage Silo Systems

A plastic pellet storage silo system is a device used to store and manage plastic pellets and typically includes components such as storage silos, conveyors, and control systems.Such systems can effectively manage large quantities of plastic pellets, ensuring the quality of the raw material and continuity of supply.Plastic pellet storage silo systems are usually characterized by the following features:

Automated management: the storage, conveying and discharging of plastic pellets can be automatically controlled by the control system, improving production efficiency and convenience.

Environmental protection: The system is well-designed to prevent overflow and contamination of plastic pellets, ensuring a clean and safe production environment.

Space saving: the system is compactly designed and can maximize the use of space, saving storage costs and floor space.

High-efficiency conveying: Through the conveying device, it can realize the fast and precise conveying of plastic granules to meet the production demand.

Application of Pneumatic Conveying System in Plastic Pellet Storage Silo System

In plastic pellet storage silo systems, pneumatic conveying systems are generally used to realize the conveying, storage and management of plastic pellets.Pneumatic conveying systems work by utilizing air flow to convey plastic pellets or powder through pipes.This conveying method has many advantages, such as high conveying efficiency, small footprint, easy operation, and environmental friendliness.In addition, the pneumatic conveying system can also realize the fully enclosed conveying, effectively preventing the material from flying and leaking during the conveying process, thus ensuring the cleanliness of the production environment.Pneumatic conveying system in the plastics industry is widely used, and the application status is very positive.It brings efficient, environmentally friendly, automated solutions for plastics production and promotes the continuous development and innovation of the plastics industry.

Applications for plastic pellet silos include:

Plastic raw material storage: to store various types of plastic pellets such as polyethylene, polypropylene, etc.

Mixing and processing: for mixing different types of plastic pellets or adding other additives to produce plastic products with specific properties.

Conveying and transportation: connecting conveying equipment to facilitate the transportation of plastic granules to production lines or other equipment for processing.

Moisture and dust protection: designed with moisture and dust protection in mind to protect the stored pellets from moisture and contaminants and to maintain the quality of the pellets.

Improve production continuity: Rationalization of the pellets in the Storage Bin reduces downtime and line changeover time, improving overall production continuity and efficiency.

Precautions required for safe storage of plastic pellets:

1. selecting suitable storage equipment such as aluminum silos and steel plate silos to ensure that the plastic pellets are protected from humidity, moisture and fire.

2. Maintaining a dry environment to avoid agglomeration and deterioration of pellets due to moisture.

3. Temperature control to ensure proper temperature inside the warehouse to avoid heat deformation or hardening.

4. Humidity control, keep the warehouse interior dry, can take the method of ventilation and dehumidification.
