Our Capabilities

Forte is a US leading manufacturer of custom rotationally molded parts and products. We have two (2) rotational molding facilities to offer our customers state-of the-art machinery, extensive production capabilities and short lead times. Our rotational molding division features eleven machines ranging from 84-inch ovens to 131-inch ovens. We own and operate the one-of-a-kind Rock & Roll machine that can produce parts up to 23’ in length by 10’ in diameter. Forte offers many other supporting resources to the roto molding process such as foam-fill, 5-axis CNC finishing equipment, line & bench assembly fixtures, all developed in-house. Forte’s custom rotational molding capabilities allow us to create a wide variety of products to your specifications and quality requirements.

Plastic Rotational Molding Materials

There is a wide range of materials used for rotational molding including , LLDPE, HDPE, XLPE, Nylon as well as engineered resins such as PVC, PP, Polycarbonate, Acetal, and CBT materials. Forte has become one of the most recognized LLDPE rotational molding manufacturers in the United States. Our many years of experience and knowledge of the process allow us to service a diverse line of industries including, but not limited to, automotive, marine, commercial and industrial.

LLDPE ROTATIONAL MOLDING

Forte, Inc. has become one of the principal  LLDPE rotational moldingmanufacturers in the United States. Our many years of experience and knowledge allows us to service a diverse line of industries including, but not limited to, automotive, marine, commercial and industrial.

Linear low density polyethylene or LLDPE, is a petroleum based plastic commonly used in rotational molding. A competitive approach to plastic manufacturing, the process consists of introducing a plastic resin in powder form into a hollow, shell-like mold. The molds are held by a machine arm that is engaged and sent into biaxial rotation, at relatively low speeds. As the plastic is heated, it forms a thin layer against the mold surface. After the cooling phase of rotation, the product can be removed from the mold. LLDPE rotational molding is used in a variety of applications, contact Forte to learn how we can help you achieve your specific end use.

The Rotational Molding Process

It is considered a most competitive approach to plastic manufacturing. The process consists of introducing a plastic resin in powder form into a hollow, shell-like mold. The molds are held by a machine arm that is engaged and sent into biaxial rotation at relatively low speeds. As the plastic is heated, it forms a thin layer against the inside of the mold surface. The wall thickness of the parts is controlled by the amount of resin poured into the mold which depends on its application. After the cooling phase of rotation, the product can be removed from the mold. 

Applications of Rotational Molding

• Outdoor Playground Equipment
• Industrial Hoppers
• Containers
• Hydraulic and Fuel Tanks
• Marine Seats
• Air Ducts
• Seed Hoppers
• Chute Tubes
• Flower Pots
