PET bottles have permeated every aspect of our lives, whether it's food, beverages, cosmetics, or even the medicines we use. However, these bottles come in various shapes and have their own functions. So, let's take a look at the use and production process of PET blow molding machines.
What is a PET blow molding machine?
The definition of a PET blow molding machine is a production machine used to manufacture bottles of different shapes and sizes. Its structure is not complicated. According to the applied air pressure, the blow molding machine blows air into the heated preform, and the specific mold wrapped outside fixes the shape.
The overall production process of the PET blow molding machine is as follows.
1. Preheating. Heat the body of the PET preform to the appropriate forming temperature to ensure uniform heat distribution on both the inner and outer walls. The bottle mouth is already set and does not require heating. Therefore, the bottle mouth needs to be cooled during the heating of the preform body.
2. Blow molding. The uniformly heated preform is conveyed into the blow molding mold by a chain. Aseptic high-pressure gas is blown into the preform from between the mandrels, stretching it into a ring shape and blowing it to closely contact the mold wall, then cooled.
3. Demolding. After the bottle blowing process is completed, the machine starts to exhaust and demold.
After forming, the PET bottles are conveyed to the next station by a conveyor belt, lifted by the next bottle cylinder and blown out. If it is a Dachilong refilling machine, they will be sent to the next machine for further packaging.
PET bottle blowing machine usage:
Looking at the products that use PET bottles, it can be found that PET bottles can not only hold liquids but also semi-solids. The application scenarios of plastic bottles are in the factories that produce the following products, the pharmaceutical industry, the food industry, the beverage industry, the cosmetics industry. Of course, packaging companies that provide PET blow molding machines for these industries can also use PET blow molding machines suitable for large-scale production.
Since the PET bottle blowing machine was introduced in the 1990s, people have been constantly improving the bottle blowing technology.
Production efficiency of PET blow molding machines:
High-speed production. A plan to increase output has been meticulously designed in response to the current surge in production demands from manufacturers. Currently, the hourly productivity has significantly increased to 95,200 bottles.
2. Just like quality. Due to the uniform molds and automatic blow molding machine systems, PET blow molding machines can be mass-produced, maintaining the consistency and stability of product quality.
3. Flexible and mobile. After improvement, the existing system can now produce bottles of different models using various molds, enhancing the flexibility and mobility of the production line.
