Introduction
DUPLOCON is a mechanical system designed for efficient cement discharge from silos in concrete and dry premixed material processing plants. DUPLOCON optimises the saturation of the downstream feeding device and reduces mixer loading time.

Description
DUPLOCON is a patented system designed for efficient cement discharge from silos in concrete and dry premixed material processing plants. It optimises the performance of the downstream screw feeder and reduces mixer feeding time.
DUPLOCON features an external cone with a flat angle and an inner cone with a steep angle, positioned within the stored material. The inner cone is connected to the outer cone by three arms equipped with shock absorbers. An electric vibration motor mounted on the external cone induces vibration in the inner cone during material discharge.
Fonction
DUPLOCON’s specialised internal design ensures a consistent, air-free material flow, independent of the silo fill level, while preventing bridging and ratholing. Unlike conventional flow aid systems, DUPLOCON operates without compressed air, reducing operating costs and eliminating the need for periodic maintenance.
With a lower height compared to conventional silo cones, DUPLOCON increases the clearance between discharge outlet and ground, simplifying installation and allowing for an overall lower silo structure.
