Cube mold technology (also known as Rotating cube mold technology or Stack-turning molding) is a molding process for the manufacture of plastics components. This molding process allows to manufacture circular parts. This technology was introduced by Foboha (a business unit of Barnes Group) and Arburg.[1][2][3]

The cube mold technology is characterized by components that rotate vertically round the axis. The lower section of the mold runs on the machine base and the lower machine tie bars. The top section of the part runs on the upper machine tie bars. In this technology, components are molded within the rotating system at different steps. Below are the different steps-[4]
