The SHAPA membership can provide all the major components required to construct a Bulk Materials Storage and Handling System. Several members have the expertise and resources to provide complete full turn-key systems, including initial consultancy, Material characterisation, concept design, final design, sourcing and manufacture, installations and commissioning etc. Many offer performance guarantees, operative training and ongoing after-sales service, including maintenance contracts. Training in the specialist technologies required to ensure the proper design and operation of Bulk Materials Storage and Handling Systems is offered either through members or SHAPA itself.
Many major processors of dry bulk solids have the in-house capabilities and resources to engineer their own bulk materials storage and handling systems, complete with explosion protection, where required. For such customers, SHAPA members offer the key building blocks from Silos, Hoppers, Discharge Aids, IBCs, right through to the conveyors, elevators and processing machines including, mixers, blenders agglomerators weighing systems and integrated control systems including SCADA and software (listed under other categories) and the all-important Explosion Protection required when handling finely divided chemicals and organic materials.
For those requiring others to handle the design, manufacture and installation of complete turn-key bulk materials handling systems, there are no better suppliers than those among the SHAPA membership. Many are leaders in this field, offering performance guarantees that give you the assurance and peace of mind required when making a major investment. For customers installing their own systems; silos, hoppers and other bulk containers have to perform which is where material characterisation is a must to enable good equipment selection. Several tonnes of material bridging, segregating or rat-holing in a silo is a serious problem. Proper silo and equipment design, where appropriate including dehumidification, dust control and discharge aids, contents indication and venting, is critical.
Silo Discharge Aids can be retrofitted to existing silos or bins that become problematic through change of use. Several SHAPA members are well skilled in the design of Silos and Silo Discharge Devices. Other members offer independent troubleshooting advice for such circumstances.
In the event of a silo becoming blocked or requiring a clean when its use is changed, there are specialist Silo Cleaning Services offered by the SHAPA membership.
