Abstract
A multiaxis rotational molding apparatus includes a support portion, a molding portion and a control portion. The support portion includes an upstanding arcuate frame section. The molding portion includes an upstanding arcuate mold supporting assembly disposed within and spaced from the arcuate frame section. A mold assembly includes separable mold sections forming a substantially enclosed mold cavity carried within the mold supporting assembly. The control portion includes drive assemblies arranged in a preselected configuration adjacent the arcuate frame section selectively energized in coordination with adjacent drive assemblies for movement of the mold supporting assembly in a selected profile. Programmable memory stores preselected operating parameters. Monitors sense operating information form control components. Circuitry transmits signals from the monitors to a coordinator comparing the operating information with operating parameters stored in the memory to control rotation of the mold supporting assembly in a preselected rotational profile.
