Bin Activator - Reliable Silica Sand Discharging Solution for Glass Manufacturing

Silica sand (silicon dioxide) serves as the core raw material for glass production. At glass manufacturing facilities across India, silo discharge frequently suffers from material bridging, arching, rat-holing and uneven feeding. Unpredictable blockages interrupt consistent supply to melting furnaces, causing unstable production and efficiency losses.

VRV Φ2350 mm Bin Activator is well-suited for silica sand silo discharging projects at Indian glass factories. Low-frequency uniform vibration breaks static material arches, delivering continuous, controllable silica sand flow from storage silos.

Main Construction Specifications

1. Size: Diameter 2350 mm
2. Main body material: Mild Steel (Q235B)
3. External finish: Anti-corrosion protective painted coating, adapted to tropical humid and dusty plant conditions in India
4. Internal lining: UPE wear-resistant lining plates

Key Advantages for Silica Sand Application

1. Eliminate bridging & blockages Uniform vibration disturbs stagnant silica sand at the silo hopper base, continuously destroying material arches. Steady feeding avoids unexpected production interruptions for glass melting processes.
2. UPE lining reduces abrasion and material adhesion Silica sand is highly abrasive. The installed UPE lining features a low friction coefficient: • Prevent silica sand buildup and sticking on inner surfaces • Cushion abrasive impact and extend the service life of the steel structure • Prevent iron contamination, protecting the purity of glass raw materials
3. Robust Q235B structure adaptable for Indian workshop environments Fabricated from Q235B mild steel with reliable welding quality. The structure offers excellent fatigue resistance under long-term cyclic vibration and resists deformation and cracking. The exterior anti-corrosion paint withstands high temperature, humidity and heavy dust commonly encountered at glass manufacturing plants throughout India.
4. Compact structure & easy maintenance Streamlined layout for simple installation underneath silos. Modular UPE lining plates allow convenient partial replacement without disassembling the whole unit, cutting downtime and maintenance costs for Indian production lines.

Application Scope

Specially designed for continuous discharging of silica sand / silicon dioxide in glass manufacturing plants in India. Installed below raw material silos to guarantee stable raw material feeding for melting furnaces.
