Planetaire Reclaim System | Silo Unloader

Models PL433, PL443, PL833

The Planetaire is ideal for high-volume storage and reclaim of high-density materials.

Its unique beam design allows for total access to the equipment — even in a full silo! Motors and reducers are located inside the access beam, and inspection floor plates allow access to the gearbox, auger, and cutter blades. The Planetaire is available with an electric or hydraulic-driven reclaim. Coal, dense powders, and heavy or coarse granular materials are ideal candidates for the Planetaire.

Benefits of the Planetaire

The Planetaire provides an access beam which spans the entire diameter of the storage vessel. This beam offers complete access to all serviceable components including motors, gearboxes, reducers, and the auger cutter blades. The entire auger can be removed from a full silo through one of the auger access doors at the end of the beam, even under a full head-height of material.

Laidig’s Planetaire reclaim system is designed for durability and longevity. Its tapered auger design greatly increases efficiency of material conveyance while reducing wear on the components. Additionally, augers can be fully hardfaced to achieve maximum wear resistance.
