ELGRA Engineering

Elton and Graeme Robinson established ELGRA Engineering in South Nowra, New South Wales. Coming from a rural background, it was natural for the two founders to focus on creating a range of tractor-mounted, 3pl machinery, all designed to make life a little easier for ‘the man on the land’. As Elton Robinson says, “From an early age I was always fascinated by machinery, and never missed an opportunity to pull something to pieces so I could see how it worked. Then once we began our engineering business, I was constantly trying to improve almost every piece of equipment I worked with”. This never-ending quest for constant improvement flows through every aspect of Elgra’s design and manufacturing processes.Some of the early equipment incorporated 3pl (3 point linkage) mounting and, in some products, relied on the PTO of the tractor to power the equipment. The early range of products consisted of Post Drivers, Concrete Mixers, Posthole Diggers, Trailers, Slashers, and other farm equipment.
