Floveyor FIBC Stainless Frame
When it came developing a bulk handling frame that could handle high material transfer, this leading conveying company turned to Think Structural for the design. This frame had to built using hygienic grade stainless steel adding complexity to the design.

Think Structural completed the structural engineering for Floveyor Pty Ltd in collaboration with a premier drafting company. Working together to achieve a successful outcome was paramount to ensure the frame met all design expectations.

Design and approve a stainless steel frame that complied with all Australian code requirements;

  • Steel Member Design
  • Steel Plate Design
  • Bolted Connections
  • Earthquake Code Assessment

The kick off meeting with Floveyor identified the key success factors for the frame including;

  • Upfront engineering for preliminary section sizes
  • Parallel drafting and engineering to meet delivery schedule
  • Pressed plate chute design saving on welding
  • Quick-response to client comments and drawing revisions

The final structure resulted in;

  • Lightweight robust frame c/w smart bracing
  • Bolted connections for transport
  • Satisfied client outcome
  • On-time delivery
