Feeds Silos
Most livestock farms have at least one silo to safely store animal feed. I can supply these to suit your requirements. It is important to have a silo designed for the type of feed, as different materials have different density and different flow rates. For example, Soya meal is one of the most difficult to get flowing out of a silo, whereas pellets flow easily.

Two Collinson silos I have supplied locally. Frequently, I fit an auger(s) to take the feed to the animals.
Often it is uneconomic to repair a silo, but occasionally, jobs like replacing the filler pipe can be done if the rest of the silo is in good condition.

Dust had collected on the roof causing it to rust, so I cleaned it off and applied some galvanizing paint at the same time.
Occasionally I get lucky! This small brewery contacted me because the auger outlet, where malt is mixed with warm water had corroded badly and needed lengthening.

I made a new part in stainless steel. A refreshing job!

A complicated repair. As I do not have a machine to roll a cone, I folded a new piece, fitted an adaptor plate, new outlet and slide, finally replacing the braces which steady the outlet in position.
