RotoSpeed

RotoSpeed rotational molding machines are available in numerous standard models. These are complemented by an outstanding lineup of process controls, high intensity mixers, powder dispensing systems, and other support products and solutions. Please review our product offerings below. If you have any questions, please contact us.

Independent-Arm Machines

Ferry Industries, Inc., pioneered the four-arm, five-station independent-arm carousel machine for the rotational molding industry. RotoSpeed independent-arm machines (with each arm on a separate cart) provide a multiple-station arrangement for heating, cooling, and servicing. Each cart indexes about a center pivot post and shares a common load-bearing track.

Fixed-Arm Turret Machines

Fixed-arm turret machines provide increased processing capabilities while promoting the most efficient use of labor. Ferry Industries has expanded the capabilities of the traditional turret machine to meet the production needs of the user. Six direct-drive RotoSpeed turret-style configurations are available.

A turrent machine has all the arm assemblies fixed to a common indexing turret.  Indexing the turret from station to station will result in all the arms moving to the next station simultaneously.  RotoSpeed Fixed-Arm Turret machines are available in three-arm and four-arm versions.

In-Line Shuttle

In-line shuttle-style machines are perfect for initial entry into the rotational molding market. The molder can start with a single arm and cart and expandable to meet increasingly specialized product needs. The shuttle’s modular concept provides machines that have from one to two arm/carts, both sharing a common oven. Shuttle carts index between the shared oven chamber and the individual cooling/service areas. Each arm has its own cycle programming. Shuttle machines can be purchased initially as a one-arm machine and later expanded.

The Ferry Shuttle range is an excellent system for prototyping new products or removing a part from your high production carousel machine. It is also beneficial when manufacturing large products. Though these machines are not as high production because at some point both arms will be out of the oven, which leaves the oven idle, they definitely have a purpose. These machines are also available in custom sizes to accommodate very large products.

Rocking Oven

Rocking oven machines are designed for molding long, slender products. These machines can accept a single part up to the maximum mold dimensions, or multiple parts can be mounted on a spindle and run simultaneously. Each machine is provided with one oven station, two cooling stations, and a load/unload station. There is no arm in our rocking oven machine. Your mold or group of molds and framework fits onto the spindle provided on the machine and, in effect, becomes the arm.

Continuous 360° spindle rotation is maintained while rocking action is provided from 45° clockwise to 45° counterclockwise. This machine requires a pit to be installed in the floor for the rocking action to be accommodated. A standard software package provides for multiple rotation steps to ensure uniform product wall thickness. Custom design is available.

Laboratory

Laboratory machines are single-arm, small-capacity machines for prototyping and developing resins, colors, additives, and other work where part of the molding process needs to be replicated.

Among the standard features on these machines is our RotoCure System Manager control with 17” (430 mm) flat screen color monitor and multiple-passage internal gas.
