Brute Force / Direct-Drive Shakeouts
Designed to handle the world’s largest castings, General Kinematics No-Bake Shakeouts quickly and efficiently remove mold sand from castings. Unique Two-Mass design automatically compensates for varying load conditions, assuring non-dampening shakeout performance. Two-Mass technology allows GK to vibrate huge masses unlike conventional or old style direct drive shakeouts.
General Kinematics No-Bake Shakeouts or Two-Mass Vertical Shakeouts are capable of handling complete loads to 130,000 pounds (60 tons) or more. Used in the wind energy, marine, mining and heavy diesel industries.
No-Bake Shakeouts are dynamically balanced to reduce your foundation loading and prevent transmission of vibratory forces. Shakeout deck designs are custom engineered for your specific product and sand molding type.

A 50 Year-Old Shakeout
In early 2018, a midwestern aluminum foundry in the United States was looking to purchase a vertical shakeout. Referencing the current General Kinematics shakeout that was running very well at their plant, the foundry was looking for the exact same design. The surprising fact? The vertical shakeout that was running 10 tons per hour at…

Case Study: Fremax
Challenge Julio Cesar da Silva had a problem. As Engineering Manager for Fremax in Brazil, Mr. da Silva’s No-Bake Foundry was experiencing breakdown after breakdown. The equipment they were running was incapable of handling temperatures in excess of 1200°F (650°C) with the no-bake molding process in which they are producing brake discs. The equipment in…
