Roto Molding of Surpass HDPE Chemical Tanks for the Medical Industry

A customer in the Medical and Dental Industry approached Rhino, Inc. in need of roto-molding of a surpass HDPE chemical tank. The tank would be used as a component in a cleaning machine which would chemically sanitize surgical and dental tools. We worked closely with the client to fulfill all requirements and expectations. Our in-house Design Engineer and Operations Manager advised which modifications were necessary to ensure consistent part manufacturing.

We expertly performed roto-molding and mold manufacturing. The manufacturing process involved CNC machining of the aluminum mold in our tooling shop, American Roto Tool. Additionally, we cut and fit three components from a single part to reduce costs.

The material used for the tank was Surpass HDPE. The product, finished with 33 shot peen, was 16.375 inches long, 26.85 inches high, and 19.691 inches wide. It weighed 7 pounds. The temperature range during production was ambient to continuous 150°F.
