Multi-frequency vibrators have advantages in bulk materials processing but their design is usually complicated. This article presents the synthesis of design parameters of a two-frequency inertial vibrator according to the specified power characteristics. Based on the developed mathematical model, the parameters of variable periodic force is derived for two angular velocities 157, 314 rad/s and their ratios 0.5 and 2. In the case of the 0.5 ratio, the instant angular velocity of the resulting force vector is 2.0–3.5 times greater than for ratio 2. A dynamical model of vibrating screen with the synthesized inertial drive is considered. It was found that at the ratio of angular velocities 0.5, the second harmonic of acceleration prevails at 50 Hz, while at the ratio of 2, the first harmonic has a greater amplitude at 25 Hz. For the first variant, the power does not depend on the initial angle between unbalances, and at the second variant, it can vary. The angle of rotation of unbalances affects the trajectory of the centre of mass and the phases of the harmonics but does not affect their amplitude. Due to such dynamical features, the two-motor inertial drive allows the vibrating machines to operate at a wider range of frequencies and amplitudes.
