64-Point Intelligent Synchronous Slip-Form System—Grain Silo Construction
Project Overview :
This project involves the construction of two large cylindrical grain silos, each supported by 32 synchronized control points, forming a 64-point hydraulic intelligent synchronous slip-form system in total.
A total of 8 sets of 8-point synchronous control units were deployed on-site, achieving a high synchronization accuracy of ±1 mm throughout the continuous lifting process
Technical Background :
Technical Challenges
During the continuous slip-form construction of cylindrical silos, precise control of:
-
Roundness and vertical alignment
-
Balanced stress distribution
-
Stable reinforcement and formwork structure
is critical to construction safety and quality.
Any asynchrony in lifting may lead to:
- ⚠ Structural deviation or misalignment
- ⚠ Reinforcement deformation
- ⚠ Formwork offset and safety risks
Thus, high-accuracy multi-point synchronization is essential to ensure project success.
Our solution:
YIPU deployed its multi-point hydraulic synchronous lifting system, ensuring safe and controlled construction throughout the process:
| Key Technologies | Benefits |
|---|---|
| 64-point synchronized control | Displacement error ≤ ±1 mm, ensuring structural alignment |
| Ring-arranged high-pressure cylinders | Stable and uniform lifting force |
| Multi-channel Hydraulic Power Units (HPU) | Equalized pressure to avoid stress concentration |
| Digital real-time monitoring platform | Continuous data feedback, adjustments, and alarms |
| Continuous slip movement control algorithms | Smooth, efficient, and uninterrupted lifting |
The system delivered high precision, stability, and continuity, providing strong technical assurance for the successful silo construction.
