The silo descender is a monolithic spiral with a continuous section made entirely of stainless steel.
It feeds product into the silo, from the base to the top, without damaging it. The angle of the spiral allows the product to descend at a constant speed, ensuring it does not drop off at the bottom of the silo. There are no joints in the slide that could damage the product.

Industrial production is being asked to use fewer resources, become smarter and keep equipment productive for longer. At GEA, that is changing how innovation happens: engineering, customer insight, digital expertise and service come together earlier – when a solution can still be shaped at its core.
