Type of Welded Silo Systems

A welded silo is a permanent bulk storage solution constructed from high-strength steel plates joined by welding, providing a seamless and robust structure. Unlike bolted silos, welded silos are designed for high-capacity, long-term storage of cement, fly ash, lime, or other powdered materials. They are commonly used in ready-mix concrete plants, precast factories, and large industrial installations where structural integrity and durability are critical.

Difference Between Types of Welded Silos

Welded silos can be classified based on capacity, shape, and coating:

• By capacity: Available from 50 tons to over 2,000 tons, suitable for high-volume operations.

• By shape: Cylindrical flat-bottom or conical-bottom designs depending on discharge requirements.

• By material and coating: Carbon steel, stainless steel, or galvanized steel, optionally epoxy-coated for corrosion resistance.

• By accessory integration: Optional dust collectors, level sensors, pressure relief valves, and pneumatic conveying systems.

Compared with bolted silos, welded silos offer higher structural strength, longer service life, and reduced risk of leakage, making them ideal for permanent installations and industrial-scale export projects.

Applications of Welded Silos

Welded silos are widely applied in:

• Large ready-mix concrete batching plants for continuous cement supply.

• Precast concrete production requiring stable material storage and precise dosing.

• Cement terminals and bulk storage facilities at ports or industrial yards.

• Infrastructure projects such as highways, airports, dams, and large construction zones.

Their seamless design ensures airtight storage, high durability, and efficient material discharge, especially in projects with heavy operational demands.

Main Technical Specifications and Performance Indicators

Typical parameters include:

• Storage capacity: 50–2,000 tons

• Diameter: 2.5–10 meters

• Height: 8–25 meters

• Plate thickness: 6–12 mm high-strength steel

• Discharge outlet diameter: Φ300–Φ600 mm

• Working pressure: ≤0.2 MPa

• Surface treatment: Epoxy coating, galvanization, or stainless steel finish

Key performance indicators:

• High structural integrity — welded seams ensure maximum strength and airtightness.

• Corrosion resistance — optional coatings prolong lifespan in humid or coastal environments.

• Smooth material flow — conical bottom designs prevent clogging and ensure efficient discharge.

• Low maintenance — welded construction minimizes gaps, joints, or loose fasteners.

Price Factors and Price Range

Price depends on:

1. Silo capacity and size — larger welded silos use more steel and require heavier welding.

2. Material and surface treatment — galvanized or epoxy-coated silos cost more than standard carbon steel.

3. Accessories — dust collectors, pneumatic feeders, and level sensors increase overall cost.

4. Transport and installation — large welded silos may require disassembly for shipping or special lifting equipment.

Typical price range:

• Small welded silo (50–100 tons): USD 8,000–15,000

• Medium (200–500 tons): USD 18,000–35,000

• Large (800–2,000 tons): USD 40,000–90,000
