· Minor undercuts are possible with no draft angles required
· Thickness can be varied if required
Unlike other plastic molding processes, rotomolding results in seamless parts with uniform wall thickness and more material in corners, to absorb shocks and stresses where they occur most.
Since the material isn’t stressed during production as in thermoforming or pressure forming, the finished part is stronger. Additionaly, the molds don’t need to be designed to withstand the high pressures of injection molding, and since the mold has no internal core to manufacture, tooling costs are also lower - and minor changes can easily be made to existing molds.
