Aquaculture

Feed dispensers, silos, and various conveyors.

Gentle feed handling is crucial in the production of feed handling equipment for aquaculture, where Helland Silosystem has been producing and supplying silos and conveyors to national and international customers since the 1980s.

In recent years, the silo manufacturer has also developed feed dispensers for the aquaculture industry and delivers to facilities both in Norway and abroad.

The equipment is customized for each individual customer, and a dedicated test facility at the factory in Gjesdal municipality in Rogaland ensures that everything produced meets each customer’s quality requirements and needs.

Silos for Aquaculture.

Helland Silosystem produces outdoor silos, big bag silos, indoor silos, modular silos, and low-profile silos, and customizes these to each individual customer’s needs. The silos are also adapted to various filling methods, whether it’s from bulk trucks, bulk boats, blowing systems, or big bags.

Regardless of the solution, the following always remain the focus: even filling and emptying of the silo, gentle feed handling, and quality.

Feed Dispensers

Our feed dispensers are designed with an emphasis on gentleness, functionality, and precise and even dispensing, so that the fish have the best possible conditions for good growth. A circular container with a round, smooth cone ensures good emptying.

Our feed dispensers can be adapted to different control systems and can also be integrated into existing facilities and control systems.

Feed Weight

The Norwegian text translates to English as: “To control the amount of feed stored and ensure the correct amount is fed to the fish, it’s important to have good weighing solutions.

For this, we customize the solution and weighing cells according to the feed amount to be processed:

We provide several solutions for this:

Weighing cell on silo
Feed weight that weighs up batches
Weighing cells on the feed dispenser for precise dosing.
