BLEC Global will use Saltex at Windsor (September 6-8) to launch three new products for the grounds care and sportsturf marketplace.
Seen for the first time in the UK will be the BLEC Shakervator (vibrating tine aerator), the BLEC Multivator Stonepicker and the BLEC front-mounted Laser Dozer Blade.
Together with a wide range of turf and landscaping maintenance machinery, BLEC will be using Windsor to display and demonstrate newly-developed products.
Among other machines on show will be a new tractor-mounted scarifier and sandslitter which removes and collects spoil and fills grooves with sand in one pass.
The Sandfiller, manufactured by GKB Machines, has been specifically designed for aerating and draining sports turf.
It has received wide praise in trials on golf courses and football pitches.
The Sandfiller is unique in that it can cut grooves at 40mm centres with carbon-tipped blades that go as deep as up to 4cm. The spoil is removed to a hopper which can be side-tipped.
Within the same machine is another hopper which contains kiln-dried sand which is deposited in the grooves - thus completing the slitting and sanding operation in one pass.
Also on the BLEC stand (V50) at Windsor will be the BLEC Multivator, which was seen for the first time at the show last year.

The Multivator is a multi-use machine carrying out a wide range of tasks achieved with only one drive unit.
Decompacting, soil recycling and topdressing all in one pass, the Multivator has quick hook-on rear attachments, an easy-change blade system and heavy duty reversible drive system.
Other options available offer a verticutter with removal, stone burier, soil screener and turf lifter with side elevator removal.
Says BLEC managing director Gary Mumby: "Saltex is a very important show for us where we get the chance to demonstrate all our new innovations for turf and landscaping professionals."
