ماكينة حقن وتشكيل بالنفخ Y150-V4-B بديلة لماكينة AOKI SBIII-100L-20 اليابانية

الخطوة 1: عملية الحقن

Molten PET material is injected into the preform mold under controlled high temperature and pressure. The PLC precisely governs injection speed, injection pressure, and mold temperature to ensure the molten plastic fills the cavity uniformly, producing a preform with consistent wall thickness and optimal density. Accurate parameter control at this stage is the foundation for transparency and structural integrity in the final bottle.

الخطوة الثانية: عملية التمديد

The injection-molded preform passes to the temperature-conditioning station, where it is reheated to the precise stretching temperature. The stretch rod then elongates the preform axially, inducing biaxial molecular orientation. This stretching causes PET polymer chains to align, which significantly improves the compression resistance, barrier properties, and optical transparency of the finished bottle. Cooling time and heating temperature are closely monitored throughout to ensure dimensional stability and surface quality.

الخطوة 3: عملية النفخ

After stretching, the preform enters the blow mold station. Compressed air at 2.0-3.5 MPa is introduced through the blow pin, expanding the softened preform radially until it conforms precisely to the inner wall of the mold cavity. The American Parker high-pressure valve ensures accurate and repeatable blow pressure delivery at every cycle. The dual servo motor or hydraulic cylinder mold-clamping system with high-pressure compensation function holds the mold firmly shut during this critical stage, defining the final bottle shape and ensuring consistent wall distribution.

Step 4: Molding and Take-Out

Once the blow-formed bottle achieves its shape, the mold cooling system rapidly extracts heat through the mold's internal cooling channels, solidifying the PET and locking in dimensional accuracy, surface finish, and the required wall-thickness distribution. After sufficient cooling, the mold opens and the ejection system conveys finished bottles to the collection point without any manual contact. Uniform cooling temperature, controlled cooling speed, and precise cooling duration are all managed automatically by the control system to maximize bottle quality and production efficiency.

مقارنة العمليات

كيف تعمل عملية التشكيل بالبثق؟

Extrusion molding shapes plastic into continuous profiles using a streamlined process. The method begins when operators feed raw plastic pellets into a hopper. The material moves into a heated barrel, where it melts and becomes more fluid. A rotating screw pushes the molten plastic forward, ensuring even melting and consistent flow. The plastic then passes through a die, which determines the final shape. As the product exits the die, it cools and solidifies. Workers or automated systems pull the product to the desired length and cut it to size. Extrusion molding operates as a continuous process. This feature allows manufacturers to produce long, uniform items efficiently. Cycle times depend on factors such as material type, die design, and cooling speed.

كيف تعمل عملية التشكيل بالحقن؟

Injection molding creates complex, three-dimensional parts by injecting molten plastic into a mold. The process starts with careful material selection. Operators choose plastics that meet strength and durability requirements. The plastic pellets enter a heated barrel, where they melt. A screw or plunger injects the molten plastic into a closed mold at high pressure. The mold shapes the plastic into the desired form. After injection, the mold cools to solidify the part. Cooling time is critical for maintaining the shape and structural integrity. Once the part cools, the mold opens, and an ejection system pushes the finished product out. Workers or machines then inspect and finish the parts as needed.

ISBM Machine Achieving High Transparency in PET Bottles

1. Material Selection and Resin Quality
The foundation of PET bottle transparency begins with resin grade selection. High-quality PET resin with consistent intrinsic viscosity and minimal contamination is essential for achieving excellent clarity. The Y150-V4-B's precise screw temperature control and nano far-infrared heating ring ensure the resin is melted uniformly to the correct melt temperature without thermal degradation, which would cause yellowing and haze. Starting with premium-grade PET and processing it correctly is the first step every ISBM machine manufacturer must get right.

2. Crystallinity Control
PET transparency is inversely related to crystallinity. Spherulitic crystallization above approximately 120 degrees Celsius causes haziness as crystallite size approaches the wavelength of visible light. The one-step process retains the preform in its amorphous state by keeping it at elevated temperature continuously from injection through to blow molding, preventing the secondary crystallization that occurs when a two-step machine reheats a cold preform. Evidence shows that PET samples cooled rapidly below 120 degrees Celsius maintain crystallinity under 20% and light transmittance above 90%.

3. Moisture Control and Drying
Excess moisture in PET resin or preforms is a primary cause of transparency loss. Wet PET absorbs more heat during preform conditioning, slows infrared energy transmission, lowers the glass-transition temperature, and acts as a plasticizer that disrupts molecular orientation during stretching. Moisture also degrades PET through hydrolytic chain scission, reducing molecular weight and causing haze. Proper pre-drying of PET resin before processing is mandatory, and the machine's sealed barrel design minimizes moisture absorption between drying and injection.

4. Biaxial Stretching Optimization
Biaxial stretching during the injection stretch blow molding process aligns PET polymer chains in both the axial and radial directions, reducing light scattering and dramatically increasing transparency. The stretch rod of the Y150-V4-B travels 250 mm with servo-controlled speed, enabling precise stretching ratios tailored to each bottle geometry. Higher stretching ratios produce smaller crystallites and greater transparency. Operators optimize the axial stretch ratio in combination with the blow pressure to balance transparency, wall thickness uniformity, and mechanical performance across the full bottle height.

5. Machine Settings and Calibration
Precise control of heating temperature (typically 100-180 degrees Celsius for PET), blow pressure (2.0-3.5 MPa), mold temperature uniformity (maintained within plus or minus 1 degree Celsius), and stretch rod speed are all managed by the Inovance or MiRLE PLC. Regular calibration of sensors and actuators ensures that every production cycle stays within the optimal parameter window for transparency. Insufficient stretch or low blow pressure leaves polymer chains disordered, causing haze. Excessive stretch may introduce microfractures. The Y150-V4-B's advanced control architecture maintains the narrow operating envelope required for consistently high transparency.

6. Cleanliness and Contamination Prevention
Contamination from dust, oil, foreign particles, or reactive polyester end groups degrades both the transparency and the structural integrity of PET bottles. The Y150-V4-B's enclosed machine design and zero-contact preform transfer eliminate exposure to airborne particles between stations. Regular cleaning of the mold cavity surfaces, screw barrel, and temperature-conditioning components prevents resin buildup and degradation byproducts from introducing color or haze into subsequent production runs. Strict cleanliness protocols are especially important when producing pharmaceutical and food-contact packaging where contamination carries regulatory consequences.

الأسئلة الشائعة

Q1: What is the difference between a one-step injection stretch blow molding machine and a two-step machine?
A: A one-step ISBM machine like the Y150-V4-B completes preform injection, temperature conditioning, stretch blow molding, and bottle take-out inside a single machine in a continuous cycle. No preform is transported, stored, or reheated between stations. A two-step system uses a separate injection molding machine to produce cold preforms, which are then stored and reheated in a standalone stretch blow molding machine. The one-step process eliminates the reheating energy cost, reduces contamination risk, and generally delivers better transparency and dimensional consistency, but requires a higher initial machine investment per production line.

Q2: Is the Y150-V4-B compatible with existing AOKI SBIII-100L-20 molds?
A: Yes. The Y150-V4-B is specifically engineered as a direct replacement for AOKI injection stretch blow molding machines and accepts AOKI SBIII-100L-20 molds without modification. This means buyers who already own AOKI mold sets can transition to the Y150-V4-B without incurring additional tooling costs, which significantly reduces the total investment required for the machine upgrade. Please confirm your specific mold dimensions with the Ever-Power engineering team before finalizing the order to ensure full dimensional compatibility.

Q3: What materials can the Y150-V4-B process?
A: The standard Y150-V4-B processes PET (polyethylene terephthalate) and PETG (glycol-modified PET). PET is the most widely used material for pharmaceutical, food, beverage, and cosmetic bottles globally. PETG offers enhanced clarity, toughness, and chemical resistance for specialized applications. If your production requirement involves PP, PC, PPSU, Tritan, or other engineering thermoplastics, discuss material compatibility with the Ever-Power technical team, as the machine may require screw geometry or heating profile adjustments to accommodate alternative resins.

Q4: How does the Y150-V4-B achieve GMP compliance for pharmaceutical bottle production?
A: GMP compliance in pharmaceutical packaging requires that the production process eliminates human contact with the product-contacting surfaces of bottles between injection and final packaging. The Y150-V4-B achieves this through its fully enclosed, automated one-step process in which preforms transfer between stations mechanically via the rotary turntable with zero manual handling. For facilities requiring oil-free environments, the optional fully servo YS150-V4-EV configuration removes the hydraulic system entirely, eliminating any risk of hydraulic oil contamination. The machine's integrated temperature control and PLC parameter logging also support the batch record documentation requirements typical of pharmaceutical GMP audits.

Q5: How many bottles can the Y150-V4-B produce compared to the Japanese AOKI SBIII-100L-20?
A: The AOKI SBIII-100L-20 produces four plastic bottles per cycle. The Y150-V4-B's enlarged screw solution volume and optimized clamping system support up to six bottles per cycle, representing a 50% output increase from the same machine footprint and operator allocation. For high-volume pharmaceutical, cosmetic, or beverage applications, this throughput advantage translates directly into lower cost per bottle and the ability to meet larger order volumes from a smaller number of machines, improving factory space utilization and reducing overall capital investment per unit of output.

Q6: What bottle sizes can be produced on the Y150-V4-B?
A: The machine accommodates bottles from 20 ml up to 2,500 ml maximum volume, with bottle diameters from 26 mm to 118 mm and heights up to 210 mm depending on cavity configuration. Neck diameters range from 15 mm to 83 mm, covering the full spectrum of standard pharmaceutical, cosmetic, and food-grade closure fitments from mini eye-drop size to large-format wide-mouth containers. Special-shaped bottles and bottles with non-circular cross-sections are also within the machine's capability subject to mold design confirmation by the Ever-Power engineering team.

Q7: What is the energy consumption of the Y150-V4-B?
A: The Y150-V4-B has a rated total power of 53.2 KW, comprising 43.2 KW motor power from three servo pump systems and 10 KW heating power from the nano far-infrared energy-saving heating ring. In practice, the servo pump systems only draw full rated power under peak load; average energy consumption during normal production cycles is significantly lower than rated. This machine consumes 15-25% less energy than equivalent Japanese, European, and American injection stretch blow molding machines, primarily because the one-step process eliminates the secondary preform reheating energy required by two-step systems.

Q8: What are the key imported components in the Y150-V4-B?
A: The Y150-V4-B uses American Parker high-pressure valves, Airtak air cylinders, Japan Yaskawa servo motors or WEICHI servo motors with Taiwan TSUNTIEN reducers for the turntable drive, NSK Japan lead screws, YUKEN hydraulic control valves from Taiwan, Italy-sourced hydraulic tubing, and an Inovance or MiRLE PLC control system. The screw is heated by a nano far-infrared energy-saving heating ring. This specification of internationally recognized component brands ensures reliable long-term machine operation and means that most key components are globally sourced and serviceable in any major market.

Q9: Can the Y150-V4-B be configured as a fully electric injection stretch blow molding machine?
A: The standard Y150-V4-B uses a servo pump hydraulic system. For customers requiring a full electric injection stretch blow molding machine with no hydraulic components, the YS150-V4-EV variant is available. The fully electric version uses ten sets of servo motor control systems with a total motor power of 102.8 KW, eliminates the hydraulic circuit entirely, and is specifically suited to pharmaceutical facilities under GMP audit where oil-free production is a mandatory regulatory requirement. The fully electric variant occupies a larger footprint of 5,200 x 1,800 x 3,300 mm and weighs 7 tonnes.

Q10: How long does installation and commissioning take?
A: Typical on-site commissioning for the Y150-V4-B takes three to five working days depending on local infrastructure readiness, mold availability, and operator experience. Ever-Power provides experienced commissioning engineers who conduct machine installation, initial parameter setup, mold tryout, and operator training during the commissioning visit. Remote support via video call is available for parameter fine-tuning and troubleshooting after the commissioning engineer departs. Customers should ensure that utilities (power supply at 370-400 V, compressed air, cooling water at the specified pressures) are installed and ready before the commissioning engineer arrives to avoid delays.

راجيش ميهتا، تغليف الأدوية، الهند
"We switched from a Japanese AOKI SBIII-100L-20 to the Y150-V4-B about eight months ago at our pharma packaging plant in Mumbai. Honestly the transition was smoother than I expected because the molds we already had fit straight onto the new machine. We are running 30 ml oral suspension bottles with six cavities now, and the neck dimension consistency is noticeably better than what we were getting before. The parting line issue that always bothered our QC team is completely gone. Energy bills are also down which makes our operations manager very happy. The commissioning engineer from Ever-Power stayed on site for four days which was more than enough to get our team fully trained."

Chen Wei, Cosmetics Packaging, China
"I manage production at a mid-size cosmetics manufacturer in Guangzhou and we have been running the Y150-V4-B for about a year now producing 100 ml serum bottles. The surface quality is really at another level compared to what I have seen from other Chinese-made blow molding machines in this price range. No parting line marks at all, the clarity is excellent, and the cycle time is very stable. We had one issue in month three where a temperature sensor gave a fault alarm and the Ever-Power technical team resolved it remotely within two hours by walking our maintenance guy through the diagnostic process over video call. That kind of response time matters a lot when you are running on tight production schedules."

Piotr Kowalski, Food Packaging, Poland
"We are a contract packaging company in Warsaw specializing in food and pharmaceutical bottles and we ordered a Y150-V4-B as a direct replacement for an aging Japanese machine we had been running for eleven years. From inquiry to delivery took about 14 weeks which was acceptable for us. The machine arrived in good condition and was as described in the specification. What surprised me most was the build quality of the imported components inside. Parker valves, Yaskawa motor, NSK lead screw, you can see the machine is built with proper parts not cheap substitutes. We have been producing 250 ml food-grade PET bottles for six months with no major downtime. Very satisfied with this ISBM machine supplier."

Kim Soo-Jin, Pharmaceutical Packaging, South Korea
"I was initially worried about buying a machine of this type from a manufacturer I had not dealt with before, but the pre-sale technical support from Ever-Power was genuinely impressive. They answered every question I had about the servo control system, the mold compatibility, and the GMP compliance status in detail with actual documentation. We are based in Seoul and manufacture eye drop bottles at a licensed pharmaceutical facility. The Y150-V4-B has been running for ten months and our in-process rejection rate on bottle dimension checks is under 0.4%, which is excellent for our quality system requirements. The machine met all the cleanliness standards our facility audit required."

Carlos Ferreira, Hand Wash Packaging, Brazil
"We produce hand sanitizer and hand wash bottles at our plant in Sao Paulo and went through a detailed evaluation of three different injection stretch blow molding machine manufacturers before choosing the Y150-V4-B. The deciding factors were the mold compatibility with our existing tooling, the six-cavity output versus the four on competitive machines, and the pricing which was significantly better than European alternatives. The machine has been in production for seven months and is producing 500 ml PET bottles consistently. Logistics from China to Brazil took about five weeks by sea which was within the timeline quoted. The only minor issue was a slight language barrier during the initial training but the technical manuals in English are detailed and our team figured things out quickly."

Sophie Laurent, Cosmetics Packaging, France
"Running the Y150-V4-B for a high-end cosmetics brand in Paris has been a great decision for us. We produce bespoke 50 ml and 75 ml special-shaped perfume accessory bottles with very strict appearance requirements and the machine handles these shapes without any issue. The surface finish is flawless and we have had zero complaints from the brand owner about visual quality in six months of supply. What I also appreciate is that the energy consumption is genuinely lower than our previous machine. We measured a 19% reduction in electricity cost per 1000 bottles produced compared to our old two-step process. That adds up over a full year of production. Overall this is a very reliable and well-built PET injection stretch blow molding machine."

James Ochieng, Agrichemical Packaging, Kenya
"We are a pesticide and agrichemical bottling company in Nairobi and recently installed the Y150-V4-B to replace an older Japanese machine. The primary reason for choosing Ever-Power was cost. The price for an equivalent performance level from a Japanese OEM was more than twice as much. After nine months of operation I can say the machine has delivered what was promised. The bottles we produce are 1 litre and 500 ml PETG chemical containers and the quality has been consistent. Spare parts availability has been good so far, we ordered two replacement seals at month six and they arrived within three weeks from China which is acceptable. The after-sales support team responds to WhatsApp queries quickly which suits how we communicate."

Apinya Thongchai, Food Packaging, Thailand
"My company in Bangkok produces food bottles and sauce containers for local and export markets. We bought the Y150-V4-B about a year ago and it has been running almost continuously since commissioning. The machine is very stable once you have dialed in the parameters for each bottle program and saving those recipes in the PLC makes changeovers between different bottle types much faster than I expected. I also want to mention that the pre-sale team at Ever-Power helped us redesign one of our bottle neck dimensions slightly to improve compatibility with our capping line, without any additional charge. That kind of collaborative approach to technical support is not something you always get from machine manufacturers. We will definitely order another unit next year."

Diego Ramirez, Beverage Bottling, Mexico
"We have been using the Y150-V4-B at our beverage bottling facility in Mexico City for about eleven months now, producing 330 ml and 500 ml PET water bottles. Throughput is excellent. The six-cavity configuration gives us the volume we need to keep pace with our filling line. We also appreciate that the machine footprint is small enough to fit within our existing clean room layout without any civil work modification. One thing that initially concerned us was ongoing support given the supplier is based in China, but in practice the remote support via video call has been very effective for the two minor calibration questions we had in the first few months. The machine itself is solid, well assembled, and clearly made with quality components throughout."
