Company Profile

DIDION has revolutionized the shakeout and material handling needs of the foundry industry. The company began making foundry equipment when Charles J. Didion realized the inherent pitfalls in vibratory shakeout systems and developed the DIDION® Rotary Sand Casting Separator.

The machinery was patented internationally and the company has grown to include over 1000 machines in 48 countries worldwide. The common sense design, reliability, flexibility, and low maintenance requirements of every DIDION® machine has turned the company into the world leader in Rotary Processing Machinery - saving customers throughout the world hundreds of thousands of dollars annually.
