Rotational molding, also known as rotational casting, is a highly specialized manufacturing process that is mainly used to produce hollow plastic products. This process offers a unique combination of design freedom, cost efficiency, and excellent material utilization.
Elkamet has many years of experience in this field. We are continuously developing this leading technology. Our R&D activities focus equally on the manufacturing process, the materials, and the product properties and characteristics.
The raw material, usually in powder form, is poured into the mould.
The mould is placed in an oven and rotated around two axes. The material melts and spreads evenly over the inner walls.
Once the desired material thickness has been achieved, the mould is transferred to a cooling station. Here, the material hardens.
The finished product is removed and further processed if necessary.
