Efficient raw material storage is more than just warehousing capacity; it is the strategic foundation of a continuous and reliable production flow. At B&K Wäge- und Anlagentechnik, we treat storage as an active process stage. Whether you are handling free-flowing granules, bridging powders, or temperature-sensitive liquids, our systems ensure your materials are not just stored, but preserved in optimal condition and ready for immediate retrieval.
1. Silo Systems: Engineering on a Grand Scale For bulk storage, we design and manufacture complete silo systems that are perfectly adapted to your site conditions and material properties.
-
Custom Design: We don’t force standard sizes on you. Our silos are available in symmetrical, asymmetrical, round, or square designs, with usable volumes ranging from 0.05 m³ to over 200 m³.
-
Complete Integration: We handle the entire project scope—from the truck filling lines and filtration systems to the discharge aids that prevent bridging.
-
Logistics & Assembly: Transporting and installing large silos requires expertise. B&K takes full responsibility for the logistics, heavy-load transport, and professional on-site assembly.
2. Day Bins: Precision at the Point of Use To decouple your main storage from the high-frequency demands of production, we implement day bins (or daily containers) located directly near your mixers or processing lines.
-
Process Buffer: These intermediate vessels ensure that your dosing systems always have a sufficient head of material, smoothing out fluctuations from the main supply lines.
-
Material Compatibility: We manufacture bins in Stainless Steel (for food/pharma), Mild Steel, Aluminum, or even flexible Textile and Rubber versions for difficult-to-handle bulk solids.
3. Liquid Storage: Safe & Conditioned Liquids, oils, and chemical additives often require more than just a steel shell. Our liquid tanks are engineered systems designed to maintain the chemical stability and viscosity of the stored medium.
-
Chemical Resistance: We select materials that are precisely tailored to the specific chemical properties of the liquid, ensuring long-term durability and safety.
-
Temperature Control: For high-viscosity media (like waxes or heavy oils), we integrate heating and insulation systems to ensure pumpability at all times.
4. Safety & Compliance (ATEX) Storage often involves combustible dusts or volatile liquids. Safety is non-negotiable.
5. One Partner, One Solution With B&K, you avoid the interface risks of multi-vendor projects. We deliver the complete storage infrastructure:
-
Static calculations and engineering.
-
Manufacturing in our own facilities.
-
Integration with upstream intake systems and downstream conveying/dosing technology.
Secure your supply chain with storage technology built by process experts.
