Popis: The paper proposes the analysis of an alternative technology for manufacturing deodorant roll-on balls of polypropylene. With the current extrusion-blowing technology, the manufacturing of these balls results in an uneven wall thicknesses and a large technological runner of material that needs to be grinded and reintroduced into the injection equipment, which involves additional raw material and energy consumption.The proposed alternate method of manufacturing these balls (as spherical objects) is to form the ball from two ball halves joined together by infrared radiation welding. This process will result in significant savings in raw materials and energy.Further improvements of dimensional capabilities and control of welding parameters are required prior the transfer on high productivity manufacturing lines. Additionally, this technology can be assimilated into other applications where hollow balls of plastic are used.
