1.
What is the Silo-RoBoFox
®
?
Silo RoboFox is a mobile usable cleaning
robot for feedstuff silos.
2.
Why is the use of Silo-RoboFox necessary?
Since 1-1-2006 (European feedstuff hygiene
ordinance) All farmers, who produce, store,
transport or process feedstuff and feed
animals for the food extraction have to pay
attention to the feedstuff hygiene rules.
Silo cleaning and desinfection are
obligatory requirements which nobody else
can escape. With the Silo-Robo-Fox a new
technology is available on the market, this
one food silo completely and thoroughly
cleans and disinfects automatically. Through
this endangering is prevented with
biological and chemical hazardous materials
like mushrooms, bacteria and mykotoxinen.
3.
What does the advantage of a Silo cleaning
with the silo RoboFox over conventional
methods consist in?
The great advantage of the demonstrated
method consists that a silo can be filled
again within four hours after the beginning
of cleaning. In comparison with other
cleaning methods a very thorough result is
achieved with this newly developed method.
It depends on the respective pollution
degree of the silo it is to carry out such a
thorough cleaning in which rotation. It can
in some cases be attached every year. The
distance can amount at low sweating water
formation and low dust share also several
years if a regular dry cleaning takes place
in between time.
4. How can I Silo-RoboFox®
transport?

Silo-Ro-boFox®
is installed in a trailer. All of the
components of the system are arranged
optimumly for handling in this trailer.
5.
How does the
Silo-RoboFox work?
The
silo RoboFox as a mobile cleaning robot for
feedstuff silos drives up and down at a
vertical leadership bar made of aluminium,
which is celebration stuck centrically in
the silo. The elevation adjustment is
carried out via a rope traction with gear
motor. Additional engines at the drive unit
provide the rotation and the robot drive
around the axis of their own. The cleaning
nozzles are fastened to a splashing lance.
It can be adjusted to different silo
diameters. Different standard cleaning
programmes can be selected at a control
unit. With the cleaning robot a
full-coverage, intensive inside cleaning
silo is reaches. This is made by a first one
soft course with hot water and cleaning
agent. The second operation contains the
main cleaning start (till 170 bar with water
high pressure; 2,500 l of water). The
disinfection can be carried out with a
disinfectant in a third operation. The
drying of the food silo forms the completion
of the cleaning work with hot air.

6.
Which silos can be cleaned with the
Silo-RoBoFox
®?
Food silo corn or component
containers which are or were not filled with
materials which can explode. All vertically
stationary round containers (silo) with a
diameter of minimal1, 8 m and maximal 5 m
and a total amount of no more than 9 m.
7.
How is the
vertical leadership built up inside the
silo?
Preferably by a manhole
(inspection hatch), is this is not
available, an opening is cut into the funnel
and then with a hatch locked. The vertical
leadership consists of pluggable segments
which are braced centrically in the silo.
8.
How is
theSilo-RoBoFox
®
steered?
By
an industrial control with visualization and
"recipe administration". The recipes contain
the different silo forms, like height,
diameter, funnel angle etc. but also the
different cleaning speeds etc.. These do not
need to be every time adjusted by "hand"
with that but all cleaning parameters only
the corresponding silo type is selected and
the control knows then.
9.
How can I
carry out the hand operation of the system?
By
an industrial radio remote control all
functions also can quite comfortably be used
by hand in this directly at the silo. This
is particularly advisable for the
facilities/construction of the system and if
a particularly obstinate place of the dirt
must be reworked by hand once again.
10.
What can be said for the service and the
elimination of disturbance?

The system of control has a
teleservice access via the GSM network
(mobile radiocommunication). In the
disturbance case a service engineer can dial
in and already carry out a corresponding
diagnosis from the distance. Then
he arranges for all further measures for the
anti-jamming like first partial delivery,
service use on the spot etc., too.
Also new versions (updates)
of the control software can be played in
over the teleservice access.
