Alkam blow molding machine focuses on preform heating

Alkam specializes in the production and supply of blow molding machines for the production of 5-25 liter chiller bottles, with an average capacity of 300-600 pieces per hour; its blow molding equipment can match most of the two-step models on the market In conjunction with. Relying on the extensive experience in the bottle industry, the company combines electric stretching technology, blow molding machines and electric screw conveyors.

Alkam pays special attention to the heating of the preforms. In the traditional preform heating process, the thickness of the preform (up to 10 mm) changes greatly, so a plasticizing furnace is required to put the preform into the heating cycle, then return to the cooling cycle, and repeat until the desired Temperature so far. Thereafter, it is kept constant by closed-loop feedback. At the same time, the company is also working on the right amount of air to enter the plasticization furnace in order to strike a balance between radiation and convection heat exchange.

Compared to polycarbonate containers manufactured by processors (which require a lot of handling and handling prior to filling), the company's technology allows the production of water bottles to be synchronized with the production of bottled plants. The advantages brought by this approach include: improving hygiene; reducing the empty bottle storage space; carrying out production in response to the actual needs of the bottling line, making production management more flexible; and streamlining the production process. Compared with the one-step system, the first investment of this blow molding system is even lower, its average output can be increased by two times, and the unit cost can be drastically reduced. At the same time, the water bottle unit weight can be reduced by 50%, depending on the user’s needs. Further reduce costs.
