Laidig has years of experience handling materials like meat meal, bone meal, feather meal, blood meal, poultry meal and fish meal.

We excel in designing and manufacturing fully automated reclaim systems customized specifically to move the sticky, hard-to-handle materials that are common in rendering facilities.

In the rendering industry, Laidig storage and reclaim systems are commonly used to store meals prior to truck load-out. Our aggressive reclaim systems are capable of providing the large discharge rates required for efficient truck load-out.

Laidig reclaim systems are totally automated and are engineered to handle the bulk storage and reclaim challenges associated with rendering facility applications such as:

  • First-In-First-Out (FIFO) Inventory Control
  • Bridging and Rat-Holing
  • Product infestation
  • Product contamination
  • “Near-Total” cleanout
  • “Zero entry” for easy service access and operator safety

Laidig has designed and engineered a family of silo bottom reclaim systems which offer proven performance and reliability, and provide rendering facilities the efficiency needed for truck loadout purposes. Laidig manufactures reclaim systems that can be used in both flat-bottom and cone-bottom applications, and can also be installed into new Laidig silos or retrofitted into existing structures.


Which System is Right for You?

There are several different systems we can custom-design for you depending on the nuances of your material and storage specifications. Learn about our unique systems for the Rendering industry here:

Laidig cantilever reclaim system

Cantilever

The Cantilever storage and reclaim systems are designed to accommodate a wide range of material applications in flat-bottom vertical storage structures. Laidig’s Cantilevers are either hydraulically or electrically driven and may be designed with single or dual augers, depending upon the application.
Laidig Cone-Bottom Reclaim System

Cone-Bottom

Our Cone-Bottom systems provide fully automated reclaim of materials with moderate-to-poor flow characteristics. It offers unique access to all serviceable equipment, allowing for zero-entry maintenance even in a full silo. Systems can be designed for 30, 40, 45, and 60-degree hoppers.
Laidig Track-Drive reclaim system

Track-Drive

The heavy-duty Track-Drive reclaim systems are designed for automated, continuous operation under the most challenging conditions. When higher-volume delivery is required, or when handling materials with poor flow characteristics, track-driven reclaim systems are often the optimal solution.
