The
BM-600 is the first compact and small scale blow-molding machine made
exclusively in the US. The system is ideal for companies whose requirements
were previously thought to be too small for in-house blow molding systems.
The equipment is reliable and heavy duty enough to operate for two to
three shifts per day.
The
blow molding system can be designed in a modular fashion to produce
as few as 600 BPH or up to 3000 BPH. Each BM-600 unit will produce up
to 600, 335 ml to 2 liter bottles per hour in virtually any shape or
dimension you desire.
The
BM-600 system uses PET "preforms" that are blown into the
desired shape and size bottles. The preforms look like test tubes used
in laboratories except they are threaded on the top. The threads are
"preformed",(hence the preform name) for the cap to screw
on to ensure a good and tight seal after the bottle is filled and the
cap is tightened.
The
preforms are very compact, unlike the bottles that are normally shipped.
A 40' trailer will hold approximately 500,000 preforms. The preforms
are available from a variety of suppliers.
The
BM-600 can be easily adapted to blow mold any type of bottle: square,
round, triangular, etc, depending on your specific needs.
