    Automated silo covering system with water hoses for weighting: AGROTEL Silo Schani

    The Silo Schani is a universal device for covering and removing feed in fixed mobile silo systems. When covering, the silo tarpaulin is weighted down airtight with water hoses.

    Covering and weighing down silos made easy

    The AGROTEL Silo Schani consists of a mobile roll-off device that can be picked up by a farm or front loader to cover the silo. When unrolling, the tarpaulin is automatically weighted down with water hoses. To remove feed, the PV-powered winding device can be rolled up step by step while the system slides backwards on rollers along the silo wall.

    Features of the Silo Schani

    • Automatically covers and weights down the silage after ensiling, or covers and rolls up the tarpaulin again when the feed is removed.
    • Shades and covers cut areas, protecting them from weather influences
    • Particularly suitable for sandwich silage
    • For covering you can either use a conventional silage tarpaulin or the robust AGROTEL Silage Tarpaulin, which is reusable and therefore sustainable
    • Convenient operation via remote control

    Flexible adaptation

    By changing the winding shaft, the Silo Schani can be adapted to several silo widths.

    Long-lasting investment

    In combination with the fabric-reinforced, reusable AGROTEL Silage Tarpaulin, the Silo Schani is an investment for the future.

    Reduced workload

    The innovative system automates the heavy physical work of covering and weighing down silos. There is no need to drag sandbags around.

    How the mobile silo covering system works

    1 Rolling up the silo tarpaulin and underlay film onto the winding tube

    2 Covering with front loader: Unrolling and weighing down the tarpaulin using water hoses

    3 Feed removal: Automated rolling up with radio control. The water is pushed back into the water tank from the hoses.

    Materials

    Motor

    Consists of a gear motor, a PV module and a 12 volt battery, which is designed for a continuous load of max. 30 min.

    Winding tube

    Consists of a steel tube, also hot-dip galvanised, which is guided on both sides of the chassis units and is driven by the motor.

    Double chassis

    A chassis unit sits on two solid rubber double wheels, which are firmly connected to each other by the transport frame and where each one has a holding device for the winding tube.

    Transport frame

    Consists of a sturdy hot-dip galvanised shaped tube to which the customer can install the holder for the lifting and transport equipment.

    Hose weighting

    The robust PVC hose is customized to the length of the silo. On request, filling nozzles with integrated C-couplings can be added on one or both sides, enabling flexible filling.
