Vario GO Shipping Container
Many years of experience have taught us that every plant has its own individual challenges due to such things as local conditions, substrate type, the size of the plant, etc.
Our custom-made, tried-and-tested Vario GO shipping container provides a system that has been integrated into a shipping container, which allows the system to be rendered operational extremely quickly, providing worldwide plug & play.
The outer housing is a standardised 40’ open top ISO container, completely clad in stainless steel inside. The mechanics are located behind the container doors, protected from the weather.

HYDRAULIC UNIT
An electrically powered hydraulic unit is used to drive the Vario push components.
2
CONTROL
The standard system comes equipped with a Siemens S7 that permits autonomous control. It can also be integrated into new or existing control systems.

40’ OPEN TOP ISO CONTAINER
The entire sliding floor system is integrated into a certified shipping container.
4
DISSOLVING AUGER / SCREW
The dissolving auger and screw permit even, unobstructed dosing, even with substrates that are cumbersome to transport.
5
TRANSMISSION & MOTORS
We use planetary gear technology, which provides a high degree of efficiency and is highly resistant to wear and tear.
6
DISCHARGE SCEW CONVEYOR
The position of the integrated discharge screw conveyor allows for the even delivery of the substrate.
7
WEIGHING SYSTEM (OPTIONAL)
The optional inclusion of a weighing system allows the user to determine the filling weight of the storage container. In combination with our control equipment, this enables precision dosing of the substrate.

VARIO CONVEYOR COMPONENTS
Vario’s conveyor rails are made of stainless steel and plastic. The outstanding efficiency and stability of this technology is unrivalled in this entire branch of industry.
9
CYLINDER OPERATION
The stainless steel piston rods in the hydraulic cylinders are equipped with a dual seal, which prevents the substrate from mixing with hydraulic oil.
One of its special features is our Vario conveyor rails. Their alternating conveyor mechanism allows for the steady, even discharge of materials. When the conveyor elements are moving forward, the push components unfold to powerfully drive the materials in the output direction. When the rails are moving backwards, the push components lie flat and slide through the material with very little resistance, allowing very little material to be pulled backwards.
In its standard configuration, the Vario dosage container can output 40% grass and manure at up to 20 m³/h, depending on the substrate. You can find further output performance statistics, as well as grass and manure packs, under Equipment and Accessories.
Vario equipment can be integrated with all the usual subsequent equipment.
We can deliver and manage the following systems, together with all their accompanying components, in their entirety.
- Mixing pump (slurry system)
- Feed pump
- Crushing equipment (mill)
- Screw technology

Standard Sizes 60m³ -100m³
Equipment and Accessories
Hydraulic Lid (from 80m³)
To minimise emissions and weather damage, the Vario GO shipping container can be fitted with a hydraulic lid, operated using a wireless remote control.
For example, if you are planning to load your Vario GO shipping container using a truck or lorry, we can offer you a variety of customised solutions.
(The hydraulic lid cannot be fitted in combination with overchage protection.)
Weighing System incl. Large Screen Display
Our weighing system incorporates a clearly legible large screen display to register how full the Vario GO shipping container is. In combination with our Vario control system, this allows for precision dosage of the substrate.
Also available:
-A selection of 6 components, incl. wireless remote control
-Covers for weighing feet
Grass and Manure Packs (for heavy and long-fibre substrates)
In its standard configuration, the Vario GO shipping container can reliably handle up to 40% grass and manure. If higher proportions need to be processed, the percentage of grass and manure can be increased to 70% and 100% in two steps. These features can also be added to the Vario equipment at a later stage.
Raising Output Performance
The standard configuration can deliver up to 20 m³/h, depending on the substrate.
Output performance can be increased to up to 40 m³/h.
Special Paintwork
The Vario GO shipping container is available in other colours, on request.
Standard Colours:
- ISO container: moss green (RAL 6005).
- Substructure: zinc plated
- Motors, transmission crossbeams, cylinders etc.: deep black (RAL 9005)
Special Electrical Features
- Remote access module
- Load-dependent control
- Integration with ProfiNET / Profibus DP
- Operating indicator light
