Our Moulding Process
Our rotational moulding is a three-stage, no-pressure, plastic moulding process.
During the heating stage, the mould slowly rotates in two planes (bi-axial rotation). Heat transfer causes the plastic charge inside the mould to melt and uniformly coat the interior of the mould.
During the second stage, the mould moves to the cooling station where it is cooled by air and/or water spray.
In the final load/unload stage, the part is removed from the mould and a new charge of material is loaded into the mould.
Our 2 gas heated rotational ovens are able to house toolings up to 6m2, with average process time of just 30 mins.
We’re With You
1. Consultation
Our Technical consultancy for rotational moulding service covers the material choice, thickness, stiffness, flexibility and longevity of the finished article and offer advice on how best to achieve the desired output.
2. Design
Our Design consultancy for rotational moulding service covers the appropriateness, shape, size, functionality and application of the finished article.
3. Testing
Whether it’s an on-going production or a single run, our Finishing and Quality team review every single product that enters and leaves our facilities to ensure that they’re manufactured to the highest of standards.
4. Tooling
Typically utilising our in-house Steel Fabrication Workshop, we then create the required custom manufactured tooling which will act as the mould during the rotational moulding process.
5. Manufacturing
We then start the plastic rotational moulding process to form the typical body of the product. Which is then taken to finishing, where any specific features or accessories are then incorporated to produce a quality finished article.
