ROTO MOULDING
THE PROCESS
STEP 2 - Heating
Once inside the oven, the tool is rotated biaxially (around 2 axes). The temperature of the oven depends on the material used and causes the polymer to melt. As the tool rotates, the molten polymer is dispersed evenly and coats the inside walls of the tool.
STEP 3 - Cooling
After the tool has been rotated sufficiently to spread the molten polymer evenly, it is then removed from the oven and cooled, causing the polymer to solidify.
STEP 4 - Unloading
When the mould has cooled sufficiently to retain its shape, the tool is opened and the moulded product removed. The tool can then be reloaded and the process repeated.
STEP 1 - Loading
The process begins by loading a hollow, steel or aluminium tool with a pre-determined amount or powdered polymer, typically polyethylene. The tool is then closed, locked and loaded into an oven.
