Custom Aluminum Archeological Shaker System
Pennsylvania, US – December 20, 2024 – In the Rotary Processing Equipment industry (Industrial Kilns and Dryers), Finch Manufacturing is the only ISO 9001:2015 certified company and our customers return to Finch for our high-quality products and real solutions. However, Finch also designs and fabricates components for many other industries. As an example of Finch’s design and engineering capabilities, Finch designed, built, and donated a custom aluminum archeological shaker system, only one of its kind, for an amazing non-profit that travels the world searching for MIA’s.
Finch Manufacturing heard from a volunteer that a wooden archeological shaker collapsed on a volunteer on their last trip to France to find the remains of a missing (MIA) WWII US Airman. This volunteer knew Finch could do anything with metal and asked if we could help. As a Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Business (SDVOSB), we jumped at this opportunity to give back and assist this group that finds our country’s missing heroes. We said send us your ideas.
Finch Manufacturing received a drawing and some initial ideas. After the Finch engineering team reviewed their concepts, we set up a videoconference call and got to work. Finch’s skilled engineers worked closely with this great organization. Ideas flew back and forth to include discussions on exact characteristics, capabilities and materials. After the call, drawings were created and sent to the volunteer group for initial review. The Finch engineering team loved working on this project and created something totally new and one of a kind. The Finch manufacturing team got involved too and offered some great ideas on making it stronger and easier to assemble in the field. As with all design projects at Finch, when the design process is finished, final drawings were sent out for review and approval. Together, Finch Manufacturing and this dedicated and leading volunteer group designed a great archeological shaker system that is safe, sturdy, assembled without tools, and adaptable to remote locations.
Bob Zinnen, CEO of Finch Manufacturing & Technology, LLC says “As a disabled veteran owned small business, we thought this would be a great way to give back and support this organization’s honorable mission. Everyone on the Finch Manufacturing team loved working on this project. The ideas flew about, and the result was fabulous.”
Some of the unique details of the Custom Aluminum Archeological Shaker System are listed below:

- Designed with telescoping legs to allow for set up on unlevel ground
- Fits in 4-foot shipping containers for ease of shipping and moving in the field
- Adjustable shaker trays allow for the easy replacement of the sifting screens

Mike Brown, COO of Finch Manufacturing & Technology, LLC says “The whole Finch team got into the details, as they do on each RPE project. The engineers and production teams bounced many ideas off each other like the large quick release pins, strong light weight, adjustable height straps for the shaker trays and a method to quickly change out the screens in the trays.”
