16.06.2011 News: Grantham Engineering - 65th Anniversary
Grantham Engineering Limited celebrates its 65th anniversary on July 26th this year having successfully survived difficult trading conditions and recessions, which during the past three decades have seen many well-known companies in the engineering industry fail. The company was founded in 1946 as the Grantham Electrical Engineering Company Limited with the aim of carrying out electric motor rewinds and repairs, and electrical contracting work in the Grantham area. The business expanded steadily and in 1958 the company, having identified a growing, specialist market for vibrator motors, produced its first industrial model. This proved to be successful and was developed into a complete range of machines.
Subsequently the vibrators have been continuously developed and improved, and the range available expanded. The company became, and remains, the largest UK manufacturer of industrial vibrators, and one of the largest worldwide. Its range of machines, marketed under the Invicta Vibrators name, is now one of the most extensive available anywhere, and has for several years also included pneumatic piston and two designs of rotary hydraulic vibrator, one delivering circular motion and the other linear.
Having established the vibrator side of the business Grantham Engineering followed up by designing and marketing its own vibratory screens, feeders, conveyors and grizzlies. This led in 1987 to the acquisition of Mogensen Sizers Limited and the consolidation of the two groups of vibratory process equipment into one wide range of machines backed by more than 20 years of experience in the extractive and process industries. These products are now marketed under the Mogensen Raw Materials Handling name.
