Telestack showcases at Hillhead

Telestack displayed a number of debutants at Hillhead from across their comprehensive range.

Malachy Gribben, Commercial Director, explained: “Telestack have grown extensively, not only in terms of sales but also in terms of new markets, new industries and the associated product range. We have two specialist divisions with the company - Telestack Aggregates and Mining and Telestack Ports and Inland Terminals. Of course our years of experience are transferable in terms of design and functionality, but we now have specialist teams that understand intricately the individual sector that they are dedicated to serve. Each team has first-hand experience and understands their respective and specialist sector.”

Telestack used Hillhead to globally launch a number of new models. First up was the AggStack range – a series of value added mobile conveying systems designed to meet the needs of the quarry, aggregate, sand and gravel markets. The comprehensive AggStack series combines their range of entry level radial telescopic stackers, radial fixed length stacking conveyors, truck unloaders, hopper feeders and link conveyors with an emphasis on functionality, strength, performance and price point.

Another development for the Telestack Aggregates and Mining division is the enhancement to the Telestack hopper feeder range. On the Telestack stand were the LF520 and the brand new LF520 Radial. The Low Feeder range allows the operator to directly discharge from wheel loaders/ grab cranes and excavators at a significantly lower feed in height compared to standard hopper feeders. The LF520 Radial was launched at Hillhead.

Telestack also displayed the HF1021R from the Revolution series - the hopper feeder range with centre mounted slew bearing that enables 360° rotation of the hopper and boom. Ideal for barge loading and unloading, rail loading and unloading and stockpiling, the parallel travel feature enables the operator to manoeuvre the unit parallel to the vessel removing the need to reposition the unit, thus enhancing loading rates and efficiency. The Revolution option is available on all HF/LF models.

Marketing Manager, Mairead McCrory, explained: “Hillhead is a pivotal show for Telestack – we had a comprehensive display of equipment that demonstrates the breadth and depth of our range. Telestack are an exciting company who truly understand their markets. It’s also a great opportunity to catch up with our long-standing and loyal customers who travel far and wide to Hillhead as well as those who are in the process of including Telestack equipment in their fleet!”
