Biogas
The specialists at the corn silo.
Weidemann machines are widely distributed within agriculture - what is more apparent is that in the last few years, their use on biogas systems has arisen from this almost self-evidently. If a machine is already at the yard, you would naturally want to get the most out of it and with the suitable attachments, you can efficiently cover the operations for the biogas system.
Meanwhile, the installation and operation of biogas systems is well distributed thanks to the support of renewable energies - alongside the primary agricultural focus of the operation, it is a good additional source of income for many farmers.
A powerful wheel loader or telehandler can be used brilliantly in the installation of biogas systems. The daily filling of the system and removal at the corn silo are performed by a machine of a suitable size effortlessly. The machine can also be used as a multi-tool when cleaning the fixed silo systems, for the transportation of planers and ballast materials, as well as for other maintenance works you may have “on your plate”.
Tasks and applications around the biogas system
Discover the options with some examples.
-
Compact the silo
The well compacted layering is an important feature of quality for the system of a silo stock. The operating weight and the thrust power of the Weidemann machine play a crucial role in this. With the green goods fork with a large working width, this operation can be performed evenly.
-
Solids removal
For the removal of solids and silage, the lifting height, stability, and turning circle are crucial. Differently dimensioned biogas plants can be served with the right machine from the extensive Weidemann machine range.
-
Filling plants
The solid injection is among the tasks on a biogas plant, which recur several times a day. Depending on the machine size, Weidemann offers you a number of different buckets, grapples, and prongs that are best suited to very efficiently filling the plant.
-
Maneuver well
Precise and to the millimeter work alongside the silo walls is a challenge of biogas systems. So that you can remain moving sideways with the machine, we equip our telehandlers with crab steering.
-
Transport works
Everything that requires transportation on a biogas plant can be moved by one Weidemann machine. With the right attachments, like pallet forks, diverse buckets and grapples, you can securely hold and lift goods for transportation.
-
Cleaning
Weidemann machines can be equipped with diverse sweeping machines, high-pressure cleaners, and brushes to remove dirt of any kind. The silo plate can be quickly and easily cleaned, especially with an easily attached broom.
-
Property maintenance
To mow green spaces it is recommended that the Weidemann machine is equipped with a lawn mower, mulcher, or a flail mower. Likewise available are pruning saws, hedge trimmers, or double-knife mowers to cut hedges, bushes, and trees.
-
Winter service.
Depending on the model, Weidemann machines can be equipped with different snow blades and rear-spreaders, and even snow blowers. Thus you will receive valuable support during your winter service in clearing the site as well as access and service roads of snow and ice.

Other works
Frequently we hear our customers say: “The Weidemann is indispensable within our operation!” And, it is true: Many of the other arising tasks are completed perfectly with the help of our multi-tool. You will experience it yourself!
