Our team of experts will take your project from concept to final 3D design. Making sure the product is feasible for rotational molding.
Rotomolding Design and Product Development
Roto Dynamics’ turnkey service is optimized with the objective of getting your product concept to market as quickly as possible. working with our team is simple and personalized and our track record in developing hundreds of different products should give you confidence when working together. Take a look at our “Projects” page.
Rotational molding is a versatile plastic manufacturing process which has inherent design strengths over other manufacturing processes. During the product development phase we will ensure that the process advantages are incorporated in your product design to maximize the product performance.
Every project has to start somewhere and this is one of the ideal prints to be when creating a path for your product development cycle. We will provide you with the options and answers you need to cut costs, enhance appearance, improve functionality and increaser yield.
Rotational Molding Design Guide
Rotational molding has a unique set of design guidelines. Here is a basic rotational molding design guide to help you get started. For a more extensive review of your design please contact us.
SolidWorks 3D Modelling and Analysis
No matter where you are in the design phase, our design partners use the most current version of Solid Works with FEA packages to offer a total concept solution.
Sales and Customer Service
Wherever you are in the project phase we suggest that you start by contacting our technical team to setup an in person or online meeting to discuss your project.
The timeline depends on the complexity of the project. Simple designs may be completed in a few weeks, while more complex products require multiple design iterations which can take longer. We work closely with you to understand the CTQ’s and CTF’s for your rotational molding project and establish key milestones to keep the project moving efficiently.
Yes. One of the advantages of working with Roto Dynamics is that we provide a complete solution; this includes design For manufacturing (DFM), tooling, rotational molding, secondary operations, assembly, quality control, warehousing, and logistics. This reduces communication delays and helps get your product to market faster.
We use the latest version of SolidWorks for design for manufacturing (DFM). To make collaboration easy, we accept STEP(.stp/.step) and SolidWorks (.sldprt/.sldasm) formats. Native SolidWorks files are ideal as they allow our engineers to make changes to the models. If you don’t have a 3D model, that’s not a problem. We can work from sketches, reference parts, or concept drawings to develop a production-ready design.
Yes. We can work directly with your native SolidWorks (.sldprt/.sldasm) files to modify and optimize your design for rotational molding. Native SolidWorks files are preferred because they retain the model’s feature history, making revisions faster and more efficient.
The amount of work required depends on how the model was originally created. Well organized feature trees are typically straightforward to modify, while imported files or models with complex or limited feature history can require additional time and effort. In some cases, it may be more efficient to rebuild the model rather than modify the existing one, particularly if significant design changes are needed or the original model is difficult to edit.
If you only have a STEP (.stp/.step) file, we can still work with it and determine the most efficient approach to achieve a production ready design.
