Techniplan was started in 1983 by its Principal, Colin Wolf, who
is still active in the day to day operations.
The
company originally concentrated on the design of large materials
handling systems such as conveyors, shiploaders, stackers and
reclaimers and processing plants for the mining industry. Colin
Wolf had extensive experience in this industry from both a consulting
viewpoint and from a contracting and steel fabrication viewpoint.
Starting
in 1985, Techniplan began to bid and win turnkey design contracts.
Over the last fifteen years, these contracts have varied in
range from a small as thirty thousand dollar attachments to
forklifts and excavators up to two million dollar plant upgrades
and green field multi-disciplinary projects.
| Techniplan
is still heavily involved in the mining industry having
recently built two stacker conveyors for a coal mine in
Queensland, two ball feeders for two zinc mine ball mills,
a large rejects gate for an open cut coal mine in the hunter
valley, a stacker for a coal mine, chain feeders for a power
station and numerous design assignments for coal washplants,
pumping stations, elevated coal bins and similar. |
