Aeration pads for powdery material flow in silos

Ensure consistent material flow in your silos and bins with a reliable aeration solution that prevents common issues like rat-holing and bridging, optimizing discharge for powdery materials.

Enhances Material Flow and Prevents Discharge Issues

The Aeration Pads I100 from WAMGROUP provide an economical solution for enhancing material flow in silos and hoppers across multiple industries like cement, lime, and asphalt production. These pads prevent material flow issues such as bridging and rat-holing by using a durable polymer pad with a semi-convex design, enabling wide-angle air emission for effective aeration. Suitable for applications involving powdery and granular materials, they ensure smooth discharge and optimal material storage conditions.

Operating at 0.2 bar (3 PSI), the Aeration Pads I100 are effective in continuous and manual operations, facilitating integration in both retrofitting and new installations. Engineered for reliability, these pads include a self-cleaning, anti-clogging design and offer optional external mounting kits for easy installation in diverse setups like batching and dosing plants. Designed to function across a range of operational environments, these pads are ideal for silo manufacturers and producers in ready-mix concrete, precast concrete, and dry-mix building materials, among others.

Benefits
