Different rotomolded products require different machine configurations.
Large tanks require stable heating, long products require specific motion systems, and multi-product production requires flexible machines.
Incorrect machine selection can lead to low efficiency, uneven wall thickness, frequent downtime and higher energy consumption.
Rotomolding machines differ in heating systems, rotation methods and station structures.
Shuttle machines provide flexibility for multiple products.
Carousel machines enable continuous production for standardized items.
Oven machines provide stable heating for large products.
Rock and roll machines are suitable for long structures.
Multi-station machines allow asynchronous multi-product production.
| Type | Production Mode | Product Type | Range |
|---|---|---|---|
| Shuttle | Flexible | Multiple | 150L–20000L |
| Carousel | Continuous | Standard | 500L–12000L |
| Oven | Stable | Large | 3000L–20000L |
| Rock&Roll | Long | Tubular | 3m–12m |
| Multi-station | Flexible | Mixed | 500L–15000L |
Define product type
Determine production mode
Evaluate output requirement
Match machine structure
Confirm energy and space
Machine selection should be based on product structure and production requirements rather than price alone.
