Robotic molding process for specialized fuel tanks
)
Gemstar Manufacturing has developed a specialized fuel tank using its proprietary Robomold technology, an advanced robotic rotational molding process that produces multi-layer plastic components with high precision while offering durability and design flexibility.
In collaboration with a groundskeeping equipment manufacturer, Gemstar addressed regulatory and production challenges by designing a custom fuel tank that met EPA requirements and resolved supply chain inefficiencies. Key features included anti-spill and anti-leak mechanisms, such as a funnel integrated into the filler spout to prevent overfilling. The result was a durable, lightweight tank that maintained structural integrity and passed all environmental certifications.
Robomold technology plays a central role in the tank’s performance. Its precision and repeatability ensure consistent quality, while material control delivers optimal strength-to-weight ratios.
Gemstar designs and manufactures engineered plastic solutions with the highest precision and quality to meet regulatory requirements and offer greater design flexibility for OEMs developing complex or custom components. To learn more and see the specialized fuel tank firsthand, stop by the booth. Gemstar’s team will be available to answer questions and share insights into the Robomold technology that made it possible.
