Stout Conveyors

What Stout Conveyors does

Stout Conveyors is a privately held, founder-owned manufacturer of towable and tracked telescoping conveyors based in Montrose, Colorado. The company was founded by Jon Fike (CEO) and Nick Bardall (COO), both with backgrounds in construction and excavation, to address material handling inefficiencies on job sites through a single-machine solution combining placement reach, slinging distance, and rotation.

Its core product, the TC-50, incorporates Telebelt technology with a patented feed conveyor that allows materials from concrete to 4-inch minus aggregate to be loaded directly from dump trucks, skid steers, loaders, or mixers. The TC-50 delivers 50 feet of telescoping reach, up to 80 feet of slinging distance, 240-degree rotation, and a 5-minute setup, with throughput up to 100 cubic yards per hour. The line has expanded to include a higher-powered TC-50 Max (135 HP CAT engine) and, in 2025, the tracked TX-50 with 80-foot slinging distance and 360-degree machine rotation for rugged-terrain sites. A set of add-ons covers customization (color, wraps), maintenance (grease blocks, service kits), and application extensions (concrete package, dust control, extra belts). The company is in early production, having built fewer than a dozen machines to date.

Stout Conveyors generates revenue through three primary streams: direct equipment sales of new TC-50 and TX-50 units (quote-based pricing, with a used 2023 TC-50 listed at $225,000 indicating the unit ASP band), rental and lease of TC-50 inventory, and custom manufacturing services covering drafting, prototyping, and production runs. Distribution is direct-to-customer via the company website with contact forms, phone sales, an on-site demo program, and a used equipment resale channel. The company markets through a blog, social channels, and an email newsletter, and serves US and Canadian customers primarily in construction, excavation, mining/quarries, infrastructure, and agriculture.
