Practical Guide to Rotational Moulding by R. J. Crawford

By R. J. Crawford

Rotational moulding is a really aggressive replacement to blow moulding, thermoforming and injection moulding for the manufacture of hole plastic components. It deals designers the opportunity to supply enjoyable articles, with uniform wall thickness and complicated shapes. Rapra's sensible advisor to Rotational Moulding describes the fundamental features of the method and the most recent cutting-edge advancements within the undefined.

Usually during the heating stage there is ample opportunity for the heated air to escape from 47 Practical Guide to Rotational Moulding the mould through the parting line and through the vent. During cooling the air can only re-enter the mould through the vent, which by that stage may be blocked with melted plastic.

What tends to happen is that the powder pool does not tumble inside the mould – instead it slides along the bottom of the mould. This leads to problems such as a non-uniform temperature through the powder bed.
