The RotoPaq system monitors temperatures of the heating and cooling cycle in the rotomolding process. The temperature data collected directly from inside the oven, mold surface or even internally within the mold, provides invaluable information about the phase transitions of the polymer on both, heating and cooling. RotoPaq Systems are offered as RotoPaq - Premium System and RotoPaq Lite - Value System.

Dual-phase thermal protection to allow continuous operation over multiple cycles

Oven Tracker Insight Software

Oven Tracker Insight analysis software allows comprehensive data review, analysis and reporting designed specifically for the rotomoulding application. Software features:

Data review analysis and reporting for standard and real-time operation
Full logger reset functionality (sample interval, start trigger)
Auto scrolling of profile graph as data is received and plotted
Real-time data analysis: maximum temperature, ramp rates/raw data, time at temperature and peak difference
Alarm set-up and live data QA checks

Thermocouples

Rotopaq system includes mineral insulated thermocouples with optional guide clips to allow probe to be inserted into the mold core and secured via an external mold vent chimney. Magnetic surface probes can be used to monitor the surface temperature of a ferrous mold while patch or exposed junction probes are ideal for aluminum molds.
