Perry of Oakley Ltd., the UK’s most experienced manufacturer of materials handling & drying equipment have announced the introduction of a brand new range of flat bottom & hopper bottom silos engineered in conjunction with SiloMaster, a newly formed company that boasts a team of engineers with over 50 years of experience in the design & manufacture of silos and bulk storage solutions.
In keeping with Perry’s motto of “Engineering Excellence” the new silo range are designed using high grade S450 steel protected by galvanising to Z600 standard, giving superior strength to weight characteristics and extremely long service life. A unique new single piece roof design is used on silos up to 16m diameter simplifying installation and enhancing performance.
Supporting the technical know-how of the new team is one of Spain’s leading industrial manufacturing groups who bring high quality manufacturing expertise. The new silos are being manufactured on new state of the art equipment in a plant which operates to the highest quality and compliance standards insisted on by the automotive, oil and gas and rail industries amongst others.
“We strive for the highest quality in all aspects” says David Perry, Managing Director of Perry of Oakley Ltd., “this starts with assessment of a customer’s needs and carries through to designing a scheme, manufacturing the silos, packing, shipping and final installation along with after sales support”.
Available exclusively from Perry of Oakley in the UK and Ireland markets the new Perry SiloMaster range will begin production in September this year for immediate delivery thereafter. “It is a great honour to work with Perry’s” said Antonio Benitez, SiloMaster head of global sales. “We are very excited about developing markets together and being able to offer a full range of handling, drying and storage solutions that are available from Perry’s and SiloMaster”.
The newly designed range of silos boast metric silos up to 32 metre diameter with a capacity of approximately 20,000 Tonnes, 45° hopper bottom silos up to 13 metre diameter containing almost 3,000 tonnes and 60° hopper bottom silo’s up 11 metre diameter holding 1.900 Tonnes. The SiloMaster range can be specified to either EUROCODE or ANSI standards dependant on market needs and significantly can be made in a wide range of diameters both metric and imperial thus allowing an existing base to be reused in the event of replacing an end of life silo.
In addition to the silo range, a full complement of associated equipment will be available including:
- Complete aeration systems (fans, perforated floors, etc.).
- Temperature control systems (portable or with computers).
- Unloading equipment (sweepers, augers).
- Walkways & catwalks. The catwalks system is modular to be able to adapt to all types of conveyor loads and to any design of the plant.
- Towers and structures (supporting columns, work towers, structures for loading silos of trucks / trains).
With the addition of the SiloMaster range Perry of Oakley are able to offer a complete solution for the storage, handling and drying of a wide range of products in agricultural and industrial applications through a network of dealers & installers.
