WaveFloor · Modular bulk reclaim · Belle Plaine, Iowa

The principle / Automated reclaim

Zero-entry unloading. A safer way to empty stored bulk.

WaveFloor automates the reclaim cycle so crews do not need to enter a silo or vessel to manually clear out residual material during standard unloading. Gravity, sensors, controls, and independent floor modules work together from outside the vessel.

Safety by design / Zero-entry reclaim

Keep people out of the vessel during routine unloading.

Automated reclaim helps remove the need for workers to enter a silo or container to shovel, sweep, or manually chase the last product out. Fewer planned entries mean fewer exposures to confined-space hazards—and a more predictable unloading routine.

Less routine intervention

Automated to the final zones

Sensor-led operation is designed to reclaim residual product without routine manual clean-out inside the vessel.

Maintenance-minded design

Built for dependable service

The automated modular floor is designed for low-maintenance operation; service needs depend on the installation and operating conditions.

Zero-entry describes routine reclaim operation, not a substitute for site-specific confined-space, lockout/tagout, inspection, or maintenance procedures. Follow applicable safety requirements for every installation.

The foundation

Modular floor

The sloped vessel floor is covered with independent modules. The layout is tailored to the storage footprint and discharge point.

Gravity does the first work.

A vessel-specific sloped floor lets free-flowing product move naturally toward the discharge.

Designed for fewer entries

Reclaim without routine manual clean-out.

The goal is a vessel that can be discharged through its automated floor—not a promise to skip required inspections or safe-work procedures.
