f you are planning to produce rotational molded plastic tanks for storing water or any other liquid, getting a proven rotational plastic tank manufacturer is your best option. R & R Technologies produces plastic tanks that are durable and extremely light weight. Whether it’s for industrial application, rain water storage, or irrigation, our manufactured plastic tanks are perfect for any long term usage.
The rotomolding technique is mainly used for producing seamless parts and products such as fuel and water tanks. The process starts when the plastic resin is loaded into the molds which are then rotated on two axes at high temperature. When the plastic melts, it will be hard-pressed against the hot walls in the mold. The melted plastic will be formed into the final products in this mold. There are some benefits you can take from producing plastics tanks using rotational molding process and they include:
Rotational Molding in Manufacturing Plastic Tanks
Rotationally molded plastic tanks have grown to dominate the water tank industry as they are more cost effective and lighter than other materials. Plastic tanks ensure pure drinking water without any taint. The manufacturing process of plastic tanks has less impact on the environment as the process does not emit any dangerous chemicals into the atmosphere, creates no noxious odors/gases, and the material is 100 percent recycled.
Design: Rotomolding allows much more versatility in product design compared to injection or blow molding. Complex shapes are easier to manufacture and rotational molding offers a unique advantage with consistent wall thickness.
Inserts: Threaded inserts or metal insert are easily added in the rotomolding process and offer a low cost, durable and evenly products unlike injection molding.
Tooling: Rotational molding is a low pressure production process that does not require part ejection or in-mold cooling. Molds are often produced from cast aluminum making the tooling process affordable and quick. Aluminum cast tooling allows manufacturers to produce multiple duplicate molds to boost production capacity.
Other Advantages of the Rotational Molding Process Include:
Product longevity
Ready for installation
Unique tool building techniques
100 percent pressure check on all tanks
Design based testing-shock test, fire test, pressure impulse test
Three visual 100 percent inspections on all tanks
Economical tooling cost
Variety of colors and textures
Mold in graphics and embossing
Internal vent tubes
Integrally molded fill and vent
UV stabilization for long term outdoor protection
Inserts and fittings able to be incorporated as integral components
