Innovation in motion: new rotational machine begins operation

There is a new addition to our machine park. After a two-week set-up period and successful test run, 13 August saw our new Roto II rotational machine enter operation.

Increasing demand for rotation molded parts, continual production flow possible with Roto II

"The procurement of a second rotational machine was a clear strategic decision for our company, because the demand for rotational molded parts is growing from year to year,” says Werner Wolf, CEO of Henry Technologies. “In addition, the harmonization of cycle times creates greater efficiency in production. The Roto I is currently in operation 6 days a week in a 3-shift system. If an error or interruption occurs with the Roto I, we can immediately switch to the Roto II, thus maintaining the flow of production.“
