Pet bottle stretch blow molding with coating and filling
Extend the shelf life of your beverages and liquid products with a compact unit that combines blow molding, coating, and filling, ensuring resource efficiency and space savings without compromising on capacity or operational efficiency.
Integrates Blow Molding, Coating, and Filling
The InnoPET FreshSafe TriBlock from KHS Group is an engineered-to-order solution that seamlessly combines stretch blow molding, coating, and filling technologies into one compact unit. This innovative machine is specifically designed for beverage, food, and non-food industries, addressing the challenge of maximizing product shelf life while ensuring resource efficiency. The TriBlock employs an ultra-thin glass coating on the interior of PET bottles, significantly enhancing product protection and extending shelf life by 2 to 5 times, which in turn boosts distribution range.
Designed to handle a range of bottle volumes from 0.1 to 1.5 liters, it offers a throughput capacity of up to 46,000 bottles per hour, adjusting to various production demands. The system’s automation is PLC-controlled, reducing the need for extensive manual intervention and improving overall operational efficiency. By eliminating over 100 meters of air conveyors and often negating the need for an air rinser, the TriBlock minimizes floor space usage and operating costs.
The machine’s energy efficiency is noteworthy, utilizing energy-saving components throughout the block unit. Additionally, its capability for 100% bottle-to-bottle recycling supports sustainable production practices. The InnoPET FreshSafe TriBlock is versatile in its application, suitable for a wide range of end-products including beverages like pilsner beer, cola, and chardonnay wine as well as liquid food and homecare products such as tomato sauce and liquid detergent. Configurable options allow for future expansion to accommodate different beverage types and container sizes, making it a dynamic choice for producers looking to future-proof their production lines.
