Spiral vs Welded vs Bolted Cement Silos: Which is Right for You?
In modern industry and the building materials sector, storage systems are an essential component of production. This is especially true for the storage of bulk materials like cement, fly ash, and grain. Choosing the right silo structure not only impacts storage safety and service life, but also directly influences project costs and construction schedules. Currently, the most common storage structures on the market include spiral silos, welded silos, and prefabricated cement silos. Each of these three types offers unique structural characteristics and application advantages. Spiral Rolled Edge Silos – Fast Construction and Highly Sealed Steel Silos A spiral rolled edge silo is a silo structure constructed by crimping the edges of steel plates in multiple layers (usually five layers) using on-site construction equipment to form a circular reinforcement structure. This structure combines lightweight construction with high sealing performance and is widely used for storing grain, pow...
