Purpose-built to your Specific Requirements
Customize Your Silo
All our V-Mac Silos are custom built to your specific requirements and its very important to us that you get the silo that is perfect for your needs. To allow us to do this we can provide several options at small additional costs.
Paint
Paint.
Apart for aesthetic reasons, silos need to be painted to meet ROI TAMS grant approval. In addition, if you are situated close to the sea or where the air has a high salt content, painting provides an additional protective layer for your V-Mac silo and reduces the potential impact of weathering.
We can paint your V-Mac silo any colour (just give us a RAL colour reference but most customers go with Green, Gray or brown.




Extra Height
The outlets on your V-Mac silo are at standard height, however we can raise or lower these to suit your particular requirements. (E.g. some customers prefer the auger connection to be at a certain height to suit their parlour set up.
Double doors (enclosed silos only)
We can install double doors on your V-Mac silo given you 70-inch-wide access under the cone. This can allow you to fill a loader bucket or with extra height give you somewhere to store a Quad!

Filler and Greater pipe position.
Again, these are usually on the front right leg of a legged V-Mac silo or on the right of the door on an enclosed silo. However, we can position them wherever suits your particular needs. It is always worth checking to see how the meal truck will access the silo and where is the best position to site the pipes.

External Chutes
We can fit 10-inch pipe installations to your V-Mac silo which can allow you to fill bags, buckets or loader buckets. The obviously work better with some product, like pellets as against wet mixes like blends or rations. They are connected higher up on the side of the cone so they will always have to be emptied out of the bottom of the cone.

SiloSpi Lvlogics
Lvlogics bring an affordable solids monitoring solution to the global market, using our innovative sensor cleaning technology. We provide accurate and reliable silo levels as a service to end users, distributors and manufacturers of animal feeds, wood pellets and bulk solids.
Their monitoring solution involves 3 steps
- We collect the data using our patented sensing technology. Our sensor can detect when it is dirty and can self clean. This ensures the sensor can perform realiably even in the harsh, dusty environment of a silo.
- The data is transmitted to a secure cloud host using the most suitable transmission method – Cellular or Sigfox.
- We then present that data in a user friendly format to users. This information will enable the delivery of the optimal amount of feed, thus significantly reducing delivery costs and reducing the carbon footprint. Deliver twice as much, half as often!
