January 22, 2003 Press Release Synthetic Low-Voltage Conveyor System Announced Lightweight composite materials dramatically increases functionality and durability DALLAS, TX—January 22, 2003. KFGI, Ltd. announced the introduction of IMAC-24™ (Integrated Modular Accumulation Conveyor) a new line of modular low-voltage conveyors utilizing BRANDONITE™, a new family of high-performance composite polymers. “The use of these space-age composite polymers has radically changed how we design and manufacture conveyor systems” said Carl W. Forsythe, President of KFGI, “BRANDONITE™ has enabled us to fully exploit our patented modular design to create IMAC-24™, the next generation of low-voltage conveyors.” The IMAC-24™ system is a complete “plug-and-play” product line that incorporates BRANDONITE™ composite side frames, internally-driven rollers and a wide array of modular control units. Forsythe explained, “We now have a product that has incredible durability with all the benefits of low-voltage, site-level control.” The special elastomeric compounds integrated into BRANDONITE™ creates a cost-effective, high performing delivery system that is lightweight, modular, durable and quiet. “Conveyor side frames made from BRANDONITE™ can outperform metallic conveyors in virtually any customer-defined performance criteria”, noted John Boodée, Senior Vice President of Material Handling Division at KFGI. “The IMAC-24™ can withstand the tremendous wear and tear of continuous starting and stopping and is significant quieter than other conveyor systems currently available”, he noted. The new IMAC-24™ system will be on display in KFGI’s booth at the Material Handling Industry of America’s ProMat 2003 International Exposition at Chicago’s McCormick Place from February 10-13. For more information, go to www.kfgi.com. KFGI, Ltd. is an applications-driven company that provides turnkey research, design and manufacturing solutions to help customers dramatically increase product performance while significantly reducing costs. KFGI is an innovative company that holds several patents, and has several patents pending, related to composite polymer materials and specific material handling products. Contact: Carl W.
