Silo unloading belt for food industry
Ensure seamless flow and precise control when unloading silos with this automated belt system designed to maximize efficiency and accuracy in your production line.

Regulates, Conveys, and Unloads Silo Contents
The BPSS-BPRS Silo Unloading Belt is a robust solution from GEA, engineered for the precise unloading and conveying of silo-contained materials such as bakery flour, milk powder, and plant-based protein powders. Utilizing an inverter-controlled drive, it ensures optimal flow regulation and complete silo emptying, preventing material loss. This equipment smoothly integrates into automated production lines, especially for the food, beverage, and dairy industries, and operates continuously for efficiency. The BPSS-BPRS incorporates a food-safe, closed-ring PVC belt complemented by a stainless steel conveyor structure for maximum durability and hygiene. A pneumatic containment valve offers secure material handling, while a minimum level probe verifies thorough discharge. Designed for operators requiring reliable and seamless bulk material management, this system adheres to industry standards for safety and hygiene, with options for customization to fit specific plant configurations.
