SFR range: high speeds for optimum container quality SIPA rotary blow molding SFR machines guarantee industrial production of optimum quality containers at the highest production rates available on the market. Packagingdi Packaging. Soluzioni solutions A Wide Range of Experience. In 30 years of activity, SIPA has built up a wide range of experience in developing preforms and bottles, designing and developing thousands of containers for various applications including beverage, food, detergents, cosmetics, pharmaceuticals, etc. SIPA is structured to fully support customers providing preform...

Blowing cavities Maximum production rate* (b/hour) * The above figures are indicative and they must be confirmed by the Technical Department for specific applications. From a complete 360° experience base with all the current technologies for the production of PET containers, SIPA developed its range of rotary blow molding machines for high production rates, flexible blowing process and simple utilization. 1 Preform loading. The preforms are unloaded in bulk into the preform hopper and are then transported by an elevator belt, the speed of which is controlled by the electronics of the...

Innovative solutions, fast and flexible The SFR range Seven models are today available: SFR 6 EVO, SFR 8 EVO, SFR 12 EVO, SFR 16 EVO, SFR 20 EVO, SFR 24 EVO and SFR 9/27. The number after the acronym indicates the number of blowing cavities. The model SFR 9/27 is equipped with 9 stations able to carry either 9 standard shell molds or 9 triple-cavity molds for a total of 27 blowing cavities. The table on previous page illustrates the max container size and production rates associated to each SFR machine model. SIPA technical and sales departments are available to supply data related to...

Conceived and designed back in 1998, SIPA rotary Blow Molding Machines have benefitted in these years from a series of detailed optimizations in materials and components, as well as from SIPA’s extensive experience in preform-bottle design and blowing process settings. Equipment reliability has been optimized, and guaranteed speeds increased to the maximum available on the market. SIPA has worked on components optimisation for preform feeding, preform handling, and machine kinetics and today production rates of 2,200 bph per cavity. Blowing circuit configuration, blowing monobloc valves,...

Competitive performances and running costs Reduced consumptions Reduced maintenance costs All process steps were conceived to reduce energy consumption and running costs. Oven process temperatures are by far the lowest in the category (up to 40% lower then conventional machines) with two important advantages: a) less process sensitivity to ambient temperature variations (wider process window) and b) fastest re-start times from either cold oven or stand-by with very low oven stand-by temperature (normally in the range of 50°C). Low stand-by and running oven temperatures mean fast start time...

Preform feeding and handling Conventional hoppers, elevators, linear unscramblers and chutes can be configurated as needed to meet the most demanding space requirements, including remoted locations. Optional anti-dusting covers with or without pressurization are also available. The numerous SIPA patents show the important innovations and technological solutions available in the SFR Blow Molding Machine range and confirm the ability to achieve outstanding performances. Preform heating and oven ventilation The oven ventilation system blows fresh air across the preforms as the highly efficient...

Unique technology solutions Preforms and bottles transfer wheels Thanks to the innovative mold opening of SIPA rotary blow molding machines, the preform and bottle transfer has been simplified with NO need for the classic telescopic gripper movement. Transferring arms are fixed, thus grippers do not move radially and do not turn. In addition, transfer wheels diameters are reduced by up to 40% comparing to traditional blow molders, thus dramatically reducing the peripheral speeds while guaranteeing level alignment in transferring. Conventional cam stretching profile is used. Stretch rods...

Process flexibility SIPA SFR Rotary Blowing Machines were conceived and designed to be outstandingly reliable, guaranteeing the widest process window and flexibility, while being simple to use and to maintain. The best machine characteristic often appreciated by operators is process flexibility and the wide process window of the SIPA SFR rotary blow molders. Thanks to the oven configuration, for the same container it becomes very simple to adapt the process to a large variety of preforms with different dimensions, and even different resins, while easily managing variations of ambient...
