It can also be used in lighter industrial applications. Once approximately 90% of the silo has been emptied by gravity discharge, the sweep auger rotates through 360 degrees around the base of the silo from the central motor unit, reclaiming easy flowing material and thus alleviating the requirement for the unpleasant and often unsafe task of manually shovelling the residual material from the base of the silo.
Sweep Auger
Sweep Auger is built for flat bottomed silos primarily in farm stores and commercial grain and seed stores where the requirement is for intensive use during the harvest season and lighter use for the rest of the year.
