Venting - a paper reviewing the theory and some
of the practical issues concerning vents.
Shrinkage and Warpage - A short extract from
Rotational Molding: A Practical Guide outlining the variables that affect the
final shape of a part. Details on the range of shrinkage that can be expected
for a range of materials and how some of the parameters that affect them can be
controlled.
Automatic Mold Handling - Persico SpA, Italy is
working on several systems for assisting with mold handling and servicing.
Moving towards a fully automatic rotational molding process?
Hand-Held Cure Device - Using ultrasonics to
detect the level of cure in rotomolded parts appears to be possible. Is anyone
interested in such a device coming to market?
PE Compound - Mold in Graphics have developed a
new way of forming those hard to fill sections on rotomolded parts. Take a look
at their new pliable PE compound that can be used to form flanges or solid areas
in molded parts.
Automation Concept - Presents an extract from a
presentation outlining some concepts on handling individual molds for an
automatic mold handling system. An extension of the MES system developed by
Persico, SpA.
Machine Output 1 - Studies output rates from a
turret machine, a 3-arm 5-station independent and a 4-arm 5-station independent
machine. Analyzes why a 4-arm 5-station machine does not function properly as
cycle imbalances grow.
Machine Output 2 - Compares production rates of
shuttle machines and carousel machines. Examines the flexibility of two double
shuttle machines vs. a four arm carousel for cycles that vary significantly.
