Modusilo Stainless Material Container

Michel Modusilo is a family of stainless steel (1.4301) material containers in which granular raw material waits next to the machine or at the start of the central conveying line. Thanks to its rectangular body it holds more material than round containers on the same floor area; its modular design also allows the container to be equipped later as needed.

Two body types

• On wheels (CEE-RS) — 125 and 300 L: 2 fixed and 2 lockable swivel castors, a loose lid with viewing window and a document holder are standard. It is used as the daily container moved from machine to machine.
• Stationary (CEE-FS) — six sizes from 300 to 2,000 L: a hinged lid with gas spring, a viewing window and a document holder are standard. It is used on machines with high consumption or as the buffer hopper of central conveying.

Equipment that can be added later

Modusilo is a modular system: a suction box (single or double), suction lance inlets in different diameters, a grid hung inside the container, a manually operated slide gate and a minimum level sensor can be fitted later. In this way the container can be bought first as a simple hopper and connected to the central conveying system as the line grows.

Why stainless?

A stainless body leaves no abrasion dust or rust in contact with granulate, is easy to clean and holds no residue at a color change. For a wheeled aluminum alternative, see the Michel material container; for a standard wheelie bin type container, see the plastic material container page.
