Ammann’s HMA storage silos have capacities ranging up to 300 tons with extended mix storage options available. Silos are engineered with expansion in mind.

Ammann’s aggregate feed systems include troughing feed belts, steep, sloped bin walls, and variable frequency drives.

The reverse-air baghouse system is the newest version of a broad range of existing Ammann dust control products with a reduced length and increased width of the Alpine series baghouse.
