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.
The floor plan provides five process stations:
- Oven
- Pre-cool or Intermediate
- Cooling
- Unload
- Load
These machines can be purchased with only one arm/cart. Up to three more may be added without mechanical modifications to the existing machine. Double ovens or double cooling stations are available initially or can be added later due to the modular layout of the RotoSpeed independent-arm concept. Custom design for these machines is available.
