Fry and Co. was formed in 1957 by Charles and Ed Fry, and the world's first belt power curve conveyor was invented, built, and sold that year for an airport baggage handling facility. Portec purchased Fry and Co. in 1968. Since then, along with many enhancements to the original belt power curve, a number of other specialized material handling products have been added.
