Solution Workshop & Fluid Management

Project Overview

A-FLO Equipment recently completed a comprehensive workshop fit-out for Wickham's Transport, delivering a tailored fluid management solution designed to improve workshop efficiency, safety and day-to-day productivity.

Working closely with the Wickham's Transport team, A-FLO Equipment designed and installed an integrated fluid handling system that provides reliable access to lubricants and streamlined waste fluid management throughout the workshop.

The project demonstrates A-FLO's ability to develop practical, purpose-built workshop solutions that address the specific operational requirements of each customer.

The A-FLO Solution

A-FLO Equipment delivered a complete fluid management and workshop equipment solution, incorporating purpose-built storage, pumping and waste fluid extraction systems.

Fluid Storage & Dispensing

The workshop was equipped with:

Self-bunded oil storage systems
RAASM high-volume oil pumps
RAASM hose reel gantry assemblies
Integrated fluid dispensing infrastructure

The high-volume pumping and gantry system provides technicians with convenient access to lubricants at the point of use, helping streamline servicing operations and improve workshop productivity.

Waste Oil & Coolant Management

To simplify waste fluid handling, A-FLO installed dedicated external extraction points for waste oil and coolant.

The system enables:

External waste oil extraction
External coolant extraction
Waste oil transfer from storage tanks
Coolant transfer from storage tanks
Reduced manual handling
Cleaner and more organised workshop operations

This integrated approach improves the efficiency of waste fluid management while supporting safer workshop practices.

Workshop Equipment

The fit-out was complemented by a range of purpose-built workshop equipment, including a Gray's heavy-duty oil crusher, providing additional capability for workshop servicing and waste management requirements.

Project Delivery & Results

From initial planning and system design through to installation and commissioning, A-FLO Equipment managed the project end-to-end, delivering a fully integrated fluid management solution tailored to Wickham's Transport's operational requirements.
