Mobile high-pressure cleaner
Mobile high-pressure cleaner
For this application, we designed an innovative chassis with a dual function: it not only forms the supporting structure of the trailer, but also serves as an integrated water tank. A smart solution that makes optimal use of weight and space.
Production process
The complex design made rotomoulding the only feasible production technique. Thanks to this method, we were able to produce hollow parts with uniform wall thickness and high structural strength. The aluminium mould was specially designed with multiple separate parts and deep cavities, formed using venturi systems – a technological feat.
Unique technical specifications
- The hood is double-walled
- Hinge was rotated in
Moulds
This project has two sizes: S and M.
Both sizes have four moulds.
This project consists of several rotomoulded parts. These include the chassis, which doubles as the water tank with built-in wheel arches. This is the most complex part of the project, with no fewer than 23 inserts! The mudguards for the wheel arches ensure that the wheel is nicely covered. The fuel for the high-pressure cleaner is stored in a diesel tank with a moulded ring, top ring and a lockable tank cap. To put it all together in a nice package, the whole thing is covered with an elegant protective cap.
Realisation
For this project, we produced several components using rotational moulding, including:
- The integrated water tank/chassis
- A mudguard
- A protective cover
- A diesel tank (with ring, top ring and lockable tank cap)
A striking detail is the moulded hinge in the protective cover. By moulding this hinge as part of the cover, we create a unique and durable whole without additional assembly or mounting points – a fine illustration of what is possible with well-thought-out rotomoulding.
