industrial

Overview
GIRONET is a mobile remote-operated solution for removing bridging and blockages in silos and hoppers, restoring full storage capacity while production continues. The system uses a hinged 360° rotating arm designed for deep intervention through a manhole without personnel entry.

Main features

• 360° rotating hinged arm
• Intervention depth: up to 45 m
• Remote control from a manhole ≥ 400 mm diameter (no entry required)
• Adaptable to all types of storage units
• Works on a wide range of materials, from friable powders to hard bulk

Versions

• Pneumatic and ATEX pneumatic: for friable/explosive-risk products (coal, bran, urea, ash, etc.)
• Hydraulic: for hard products (slag, cement, clinker, etc.)

Advantages

• TOTAL SAFETY: No human presence inside silos or hoppers during intervention; compliance with safety standards
• CONTINUOUS PRODUCTION: Interventions performed without stopping production; recovery of up to 100% storage capacity; no material loss
• EFFICIENCY: Fast and effective intervention on all material types
