Thomas Musschoot, President of General Kinematics, commented, "I am excited to be back at Castexpo. General Kinematics has grown significantly since the last show. The addition of the TUFFMAN™ brand provides additional material handling capabilities. We have expanded our European division with the addition of CYRUS™ and, most importantly, our new GK SYSTEMS division, which is bringing the foundry of the future to a market in need of innovative turnkey foundry design."

CASTEXPO is North America's largest foundry show. GK has been a longtime exhibitor at CASTEXPO. This year GK's presence is more prominent than ever, showcasing three pre-sold pieces of equipment along with introducing GK’s new division, GK SYSTEMS to the show’s audience. 

General Kinematics has the largest selection of vibratory and rotary foundry machinery equipment available in the industry. The vibratory equipment which is showcased this year at the show is the Vibratory Shakeout,  VIBRA-MILL™, and the TWO-WAY™ Feeder. All three machines will be running in the booth. After the show ends, two pieces of equipment, the Vibratory Shakeout and Two-Way™ Feeder, will ship directly to Charlotte Pipe in Charlotte, North Carolina. The third piece of equipment, Vibra-Mill™, will ship to a North American auto manufacturing plant. 

“The partnership with Charlotte Pipe and Foundry has been excellent. We are proud to have our equipment selected for their new foundry.”, commented Claude Hutchens, International Market Director of Foundry

In addition to the equipment in the booth, experts from our GK SYSTEMS division will be on hand to answer questions. GK SYSTEMS offers entire turn-key foundry systems and engineered innovative systems to the industry.
