CAGE SYSTEM AND
OTHER ROCTOOL INNOVATIVE MOULDING TECHNOLOGIES
The
Cage System
is a patented moulding technology which
heats the tool surface by induction. The mould is then
cooled down rapidly with water cooling lines which are
placed closed to the tool surface. This unique process achieves
a very fast cycle time thanks to the induction, which
heats only the tool surface. This technology is dedicated
to high volume production and is a good solution for
thermoplastic and thermoset materials.
The
Cage System
is dedicated to high volume production and
companies willing to increase their production rate.
Main advantages:
Fast
heating / cooling thanks to the inductive heating
and cooling system
Good
Temperature control, it is possible to have different
temperatures during the cycle (ideal for thermoset
materials)
The
Cage System® can process preheated materials:
surface would be preheated in few seconds
to have an optimal material transfer in the mould
The
Cage System® can process non preheated materials
(composite fabrics, chopped materials…): no
need to preheat the material, heating and cooling
in the same tool in one cycle (ideal for thermoplastic
materials)
