One of Australia’s bulk handling mainstays, FrescoSystems Australasia, will have a major presence at BULKEX 2006, with several working systems on show. FrescoSystems Australasia, which designs, manufactures and installs bulk materials handling equipment and systems, will exhibit systems including bulk bag unloaders, bulk bag filler, rotary sifter, flexible conveyors, mobile conveyor, metering screw feeder, and pneumatic conveying.
In terms of bulk bag unloading equipment, Fresco will profile its broad range of forklift load and electric hoist and trolley load equipment, catering for bulk bags ranging up to 2,000kgs and all budgets. All FrescoSystems Australasia’s designs are adaptable to hazardous and dust zone applications. Additional features include a bag massager, spout clamp, dust collector and bag closing device.
Demanding attention will be Fresco’s new and innovative bulk bag filler. These are designed to provide the highest accuracy and ergonomics while being robust enough to stand up to the harshest of environments. Bulk bags up to 2,000mm high and weighing 2,000kgs can be filled at up to 25units/hr. The simple double wound mechanism allows for quick and simple bag height adjustment by the operator to suit any bag size. Bags are loaded from the front without the operator stretching or reaching, allowing for option feed and take out conveyors. A unique spout clamp ensures dust tight filling.
As Fresco’s stand will make clear, the company’s offerings range from single items through to turnkey projects, all fully engineered and manufactured in house by qualified personnel. Ken Hetherington, general manager, Fresco Systems Australasia, summed up the company’s capabilities, which will be displayed at BULKEX 2006.
