GK helped the Auto Industrial Group in South Africa upgrade and install new equipment and systems for its two cast iron foundry operations. This install/upgrade included the addition of the General Kinematics VIBRA-DRUM® Sand and Casting Conditioner as part of their shakeout operation. “At both foundries we have installed a new General Kinematics VIBRA-DRUM® Sand and Casting Conditioner in the shakeout operation. This includes the conveyors and agitation systems post and prior the drums. The gentle tumbling action of the drums keeps the castings in a bed of sand, never dropping or creating impact during the shakeout process and it eliminates any mechanical damage.”
