Having all under the same roof allow us to offer of our customers the most effective cost, quality of tooling and the best realisation of the tool. In our facility our customers are able to see at first hand the process of bringing their ideas to fruition, through each stage of the manufacturing process. RotoInvent provide a toolmaking service, ensuring that the final molds meet the specification required. In our tooling facility they are three main possibilities for tooling manufacture:

Fabricated Molds (Metal sheet tooling) The most widely used method of mould manufacture in rotational moulding. Used for both small and large parts with varying degrees of complexity. Fabricated from steel, aluminum or stainless steel these molds are lightweight and are the lowest cost approach when dealing with large molds.
Cast Molds  (Cast aluminium tooling) Cast molds produce parts that require considerable detail or elaborate shapes and they can be modified to integrate design changes.
CNC Molds are used when extreme precision or extended production runs are required

Additional services

ROTOINVENT offer other additional services including the foam filling of products – particularly important for products including buoyancy units. We can create a number of different product finishes and offer a mould-in graphic facility for customers who wish to have their own branding prominently displayed on their products. If graphics are not required, we manufacture bespoke nameplates which can then be moulded into your product and typically include your logo, web address and a contact number.

Tool Revision and Refurbishment

Over time, tooling can require repair and refurbishment when subject to the daily rigors of rotational molding. Similarly, as newly launched products are evaluated in the market, design changes may be necessary to provide end-users the required performance of their rotationally molded parts. To respond to the market’s need for tool revision and refurbishment, RotoInvent has built robust capabilities and developed a highly experienced and skilled team dedicated specifically to providing these services. With tooling revisions, we begin by analyzing customers’ updated product design, then develop and execute a manufacturing strategy to revise tooling relative to the desired part production requirements. Additionally, our refurbishment capabilities allow customers to optimize tooling longevity by maintaining proper working condition of parting lines, clamping and closure mechanisms, air management systems and ancillary tool components.
