4-Cavity PET Stretch Blow Moulding Machine
How it works

Built around your product

Preforms are loaded, reheated in an infrared oven and stretch-blown in a four-cavity mould. Servo stretching and air recovery reduce energy per bottle.

In extrusion blow moulding a tube of molten plastic — the parison — is captured by a mould and inflated. Stretch blow moulding reheats an injection-moulded PET preform, stretches it with a rod and blows it at high pressure, giving a strong, clear bottle. Injection blow moulding forms the neck by injection first, then blows the body, producing scrap-free containers with accurate necks.

Key features

  • Servo stretching and clamping
  • High-pressure air recovery
  • Quick mould change
  • Direct link to an air conveyor and filler

Machine cycle

Process sequence

Plasticise

Resin is melted in the extruder, or preforms are reheated.

Form

A parison is extruded or the preform is transferred to the mould.

Blow

Compressed air inflates the plastic against the cooled mould.

Cool & eject

The container sets, the mould opens and the part is removed.

Trim & test

Flash is removed and bottles are leak-tested and coded.

Suitable materials and packs

Questions

Which process suits which bottle?
Extrusion blow for HDPE/PP bottles with handles and jerrycans; stretch blow for PET beverage and personal-care bottles; injection blow for small pharma and cosmetic containers.
How are blown bottles coded?
UV or CO2 laser coders mark directly on the bottle after moulding, or CIJ prints on the shoulder or base.
What utilities are needed?
Electrical power, chilled water for the moulds and compressed air — high-pressure air, up to 40 bar, for PET stretch blow.
