For silos with capacities in excess of 500 m³. We also prefabricate individual segments for Panel-Tec silos at the plant; these can be transported inexpensively to the construction site by container.
Saving you time and money
Zeppelin Panel-Tec silos
As a global market leader, Zeppelin also stands out when it comes to constructing silos with capacities over 500 m³. Thanks to its innovative flange design and assembly technologies, the new Panel-Tec design offers decisive advantages – shorter assembly times and verifiable Zeppelin quality. The concept: Individual silo segments are prefabricated at our production site as far as possible, with flanges installed. These segments are transported to the construction site in containers, where the segments are put together and screwed in place – silos can be assembled hanging from a crane or lying flat – and then automatically internally welded. Installation is far quicker than with the traditional process, and can also be performed in any weather conditions.
Verifiable welding quality means cost savings
The innovative design of the flange coupling makes it possible to inspect the weld seams along the flanging. The benefit for you: Documented non-destructive weld-seam testing (e.g. ultrasonic) can increase the weld seam factor, ensuring that the wall strength of the silo can be fully utilized. The flange couplings used as an assembly aid also increase stability in terms of bulging, and help to optimize the wall strength.
