General Kinematics to feature Finger-Screen at ISRI convention

General Kinematics (GK) will exhibit a running Finger-Screen designed for metals separation at the Institute for Scrap Recycling Industries (ISRI) Convention & Exhibition in Nashville, Tennessee.

The Washington-based organization’s convention runs from April 17-20.

“We are thrilled to return to ISRI 2023. We’ve had great successes over the past year working collaboratively with our scrap customers,” GK Vice President of North America Sales Jim Egan says. “We see ISRI as the perfect opportunity to share that knowledge and success with new prospective customers in the industry.”

The Crystal Lake, Illinois, company says its Finger-Screen has replaced trommel screens in some scrap industry applications. For example, Fort Wayne, Indiana-based OmniSource used the GK Finger-Screen to eliminate jamming issues and increase efficiency at one of its Toledo, Ohio, facilities.

Several GK industry experts will be attending the ISRI event and can answer questions about the finger-screen and other products.

“Over the last few years, there’s been rapidly growing interest within the scrap industry around our Finger-Screens,” GK Market Director of Recycling Systems Alan Grove says. “General Kinematics’ vibratory screens have a much lower operating cost compared to more traditional screening technologies such as trommels and disc screens without sacrificing screening efficiency or quality.”

GK says the Finger-Screen can be used in waste, scrap metal and construction and demolition recycling operations.

General Kinematics will be at Booth 1317.
