AGRICULTURE

Based on the info from the Department of Agriculture Australia, Agriculture industry in Australia accounts for:

  • 58% of Australian land use (446 million hectares, excluding timber production) and 59% of water extractions (9,434 gigalitres used by agriculture in 2015–16);
  • 11% of goods and services exports in 2018–19;
  • 2.2% of value added (GDP) and 2.6% of employment in 2018–19.

The main agricultural crops grown in Australia are wheat, coarse grains (barley, oats, sorghum, maize, and triticale), rice, oilseeds (canola, sunflowers, soybeans, and peanuts), grain legumes (lupins and chickpeas), sugarcane, cotton, fruits, grapes, tobacco, and vegetables.

Tech Coordination has been providing design, drafting and documentation services to different Agriculture industries to support various stages such as cleaning, storing, grading, processing and packaging.

Engineering Design and Drafting in Agriculture:

The design service encompasses different systems such as material handling, storage, processing, and packing. We have been involved in machinery design, end-to-end material handling solution,

bucket elevator, drag conveyor, screw conveyor, weigh hopper, micro filling station, cyclon, spout, general exhaust design, grain storage, meal storge solution, filling/ bagging station, steps ladder, and walk ways.

 

We strictly follow Australian Standards in our work. Some of the relevant standards are as below,

AS/NZS 4745 Code of the practice of handling combustible dust
AS 1324 Air filters for use in general ventilation and air conditioning
AS/NZS 1657 Platforms, Walkways, Stairways and Ladders
AS/NZS 1668 The use of ventilation and air conditioning in building fire and smoke control in building
