Modularity and logistics optimization for storage
Poggi telescopic vertical silos of the TC and TP Series are designed for the safe and continuous storage of bulk materials in powder and granular form, such as cement, lime, fly ash, and premixed products. They represent a practical, efficient, and easily transportable solution.
The two available versions meet different logistical needs: the TC Series is optimized for transport in OT containers, while the TP Series is optimized for truck transport. Both ensure compactness and reliability.
Thanks to their telescopic structure with sliding sections, these silos offer a unique advantage in terms of transport efficiency.
They are available in various capacities and configurations to meet the requirements of any project. Fully customizable with accessories such as safety valves, dust control systems, level indicators, ladders, and handrails, Poggi telescopic silos provide flexibility and adaptability across multiple sectors.
Versatile and ready for installation, TC and TP telescopic silos are the ideal choice for operations requiring efficient vertical storage combined with logistical advantages and modularity.
> Transport cost optimization thanks to compact configuration
> Targeted logistics optimization: TC version for containers, TP version for trucks, depending on the transport channel
> Fast installation: on-site the silo extends in a few steps without complex operations
> Pre-assembled structure with installed legs, ready to use and quick to position

Operation and safety
In Poggi telescopic silos, every component is designed to ensure structural stability, operational safety, and long-term functionality, even in complex environmental conditions.
This section presents the main technical elements that define silo operation, with a focus on devices that optimize material handling and support operational continuity. The silos are fully customizable with accessories such as safety valves, silo ladders, and handrails.
Seals, positioned at the joints between the sections that make up the silo, play a key role: they must withstand wear and provide protection against weather conditions. The materials selected by Poggi ensure long-term sealing performance, contributing to the overall stability and efficiency of the structure.
The Poggi silo is equipped with a safety system designed to prevent overpressure or vacuum conditions.
To start loading, the operator connects the pipe to the silo by moving a handle: this action activates an indicator on the control panel. Only at this point is it possible to open the butterfly valve from the control panel, allowing material to enter. This procedure ensures that loading takes place only when the silo is properly ready, preventing overloads or unsafe operations.
The silo is equipped with a two-way safety system to prevent overpressure or vacuum conditions.
In case of filter clogging, an electronic pressure sensor automatically stops loading by closing the butterfly valve.
If this first level of protection does not operate, a second mechanical system intervenes to rebalance the pressure inside the silo.
Different types of internal lining can be applied, selected according to the nature of the material to be stored. These linings perform a dual function: they protect internal surfaces from wear, abrasion, or corrosion, while also facilitating material flow towards the outlet, reducing friction and build-up. The correct selection allows optimization of operational efficiency and extends the service life of the silo.
Bolting is a key structural element in panel silos, as it ensures the mechanical integrity of the entire structure. Depending on the installation environment (e.g. marine), different types of bolts with various sizes and protective treatments can be used. Every bolt contributes to the overall stability of the silo, ensuring a solid and durable connection between components.
DISCHARGE SYSTEM
Material is discharged by gravity through a conical bottom hopper designed to facilitate flow even with high-density materials or large volumes. The system can be configured with butterfly valves, pneumatic valves, and external extraction screw conveyors, depending on the application and the type of connected system.
VIBRATION SYSTEMS
To ensure complete silo emptying even with difficult materials, electric vibrators or selective vibration systems can be installed, calibrated according to the material type. This reduces discharge times and prevents bridging or blockages.
FLUIDIZATION SYSTEMS
Fluidization pads or nozzles installed in the lower part of the silo introduce compressed air to keep powders or light materials in motion. Particularly suitable for cement, hydrated lime, fly ash, and other light, powdery materials.
VOLUMETRIC DOSING
Material dosing is carried out via screw conveyor, adjusting the operating time based on the silo’s nominal capacity. A reliable solution that ensures operational continuity and consistent output, particularly suitable for homogeneous materials and repetitive working cycles.
ELECTRONIC DOSING WITH LOAD CELLS
For applications requiring precision, traceability, and certified dosing, a loss-in-weight weighing system can be integrated. Load cells connected to an electronic terminal ensure reliable measurements, with cycle recording and controlled, verifiable recipe management.
REMOTE MANAGEMENT AND TRACEABILITY OPTIONS
Upon request, dosing systems can be integrated with digital interfaces for remote control, data visualization from external terminals, and automatic report generation. This enables advanced silo management even remotely and full integration into automated systems or Industry 4.0 environments.
TOP FILTER
Mounted directly on the silo roof, the top filter is designed to capture and retain venting dust generated during pneumatic loading. The system operates continuously and automatically, without the need for manual intervention, helping to keep the surrounding environment clean and improving safety in the operating area. Efficient separation between air and solid particles reduces the risk of emissions into the atmosphere and preserves the integrity of the stored material, preventing waste and contamination. Depending on the type of material stored in the silo, different types of filters can be installed, optimized for particle size distribution or the chemical nature of the dust handled.
