Rotational molding is a method of production using a hollow mold that is filled with plastic, heated, and slowly rotated.  The heat causes the plastic to melt, and the rotation causes the plastic to be evenly distributed. Rotational molding is a good plastic molding method for hollow objects. It is a low cost method, with…

One of the most common types of molding we do at Advanced Packaging is rotational molding, also known as roto-molding. Roto-molding uses heat and bi-axel rotation to create hollow individual pieces that are later assembled into the finished case. Roto-molding is quick and allows inexpensive mass production of customized cases without requiring a lot of…

Last week we talked about the process of injection molding and how it all works to create a final project. Rotational molding is the other type of molding that we use to create our custom cases. While the basics of molding remain the same, there are some differences from injection molding to rotational molding. So,…

Rotational molding allows hollow shapes to be created in Advanced Packaging’s custom cases while still maintaining a constant wall thickness for superior durability. This method creates stress free parts when polymer powder is tumbled around inside the mold. The process of rotational molding has been around since the turn of the century, but was first…
