EBS E ROTARY STRETCH-BLOW MOULDERS Preform orientator • sturdy preform-lifting and orientating unit equipped with staircase and elevated platform • recovery of the preforms in excess, carried back to the hopper automatically Rotary groups of grippers • positively actuated valve gear control of the grippers' rotary groups through a double cam Preform-heating module • horizontally positioned short-wave infrared ray lamps, grouped in various sections • up to 8 short-wave infrared ray lamps for each section of the heating module • possibility to set and modify the parameters of each lamp through...

EBS E SERIES: FEATURES AND BENEFITS • liquid-fed cooling system, in order to cool the protection ring avoiding the preforms thread deformation during the heating process • air-fed cooling system, in order to keep the heating module temperature constant and low enough • modular design, standardised for all stretch-blow moulders models Stretch-blow moulding wheel • precise and highly reliable cam-free technology • standardized stretch-blowing stations for all blow moulders models, with a low dead volume thanks to high performance valves and optimized circuits • liquid-fed cooling system, in order...

EBS ROTARY STRETCH-BLOW MOULDERS Top level reliability and efficiency The new EBS ERGON series is more sturdy, compact, flexible, technologically advanced and performing than the previous series, thanks to an array of technical innovations applied to the stretch-blowing process. As a matter of fact, the stretch-blowing module of the EBS ERGON range is equIpped with motorized stretching rods whose operation, electronically controlled, needs no mechanical cams. Such innovation allows to precisely manage the stretching rod ride and to accurately control its position, while providing significant...

EBS SERIES: FEATURES AND BENEFITS All of EBS ERGON stretch-blow moulders of the latest generation are equipped with a built-in, high efficiency air recovery system, named AIR MASTER, which allows to recover air from the blowing circuit. HIGH PRESSURE The system is based on a two-stage architecture (1st and 2nd stage), as follows: The 1st stage allows to re-use the air recovered to feed: • the service air circuit • the low-pressure line feeding external units • the pre-blowing circuit The 2nd stage (PX tank) allows to re-use the air recovered to feed: • the 1st stage of the blowing process The...

EBS E ROTARY STRETCH-BLOW MOULDERS scan this QR code The EBS E ERGON project is based upon all-electronic processes which allow to get rid of the whole of mechanical movements and related cams and ultimately make the blower a cam-less machine. The new range is composed of 4 models, from 12 to 20 cavities, suitable for the production of bottles with a maximum output of 2,500 bph/cavity. The EBS E ERGON series of rotary stretch-blow moulders ensures high performances in the stretch-blow moulding of PET, rPET and PP bottles, mainly used in the “food & beverage” sector. Thanks to high-tech components,...

temperature, compares it with the temperature set point and, if the two values do not correspond, automatically increases or reduces the power of the short-wave infrared ray lamps. 3 A special rotary group of grippers picks the preforms up from the heating module and sets them into the stretch-blowing stations. The stretch-blowing process includes two phases: stretching and pre-blowing, which occur simultaneously through the descent of the motorized stretching rod and the supply of low pressure compressed air, and final blowing with highpressure compressed air, through which the containers take...

EBS K ROTARY STRETCH-BLOW MOULDERS scan this QR code EBS K ERGON SERIES Starting from the countless technical innovations introduced on the ERGON EBS E series stretch-blow moulders, SMI designers have developed a new series of extremely compact, rotary, stretch-blow moulders called ERGON EBS K (the letter K of the name comes from the word "Kompakt"). Capable of satisfying production demands of up to 10,000 bottles/hour*, the new models are available in 2, 3 and 4-cavity versions, and offer all the advantages of rotary technology in a "speed" range (3,0004,000 to 10,000 bottles/hour), traditionally...

PREFERENTIAL HEATING PREFORMS HEATING The ERGON EBS K stretch-blow moulding system has an innovative preform heating module with an extremely compact design, this allows it to be integrated in the same machine module with the stretch-blow moulder carousel. The module features a horizontal preform feeder chain and an optimized ventilation and aeration system. Moreover, the infrared lamp units, responsible for heating the preforms in transit, are equipped with a system of thermo-reflective panels made of a highly energy-efficient composite material situated both in front of and behind the lamps....

EBS KL / KL HC ROTARY STRETCH-BLOW MOULDERS scan this QR code Starting from the countless technical innovations introduced on the ERGON EBS K series stretch-blow moulders, SMI designers have developed a new series of extremely compact, rotary, stretch-blow moulders called ERGON EBS KL (the letters KL of the name come from the word "Kompakt Large"). Capable of satisfying production demands up to 25,000 bottles/hour*, the new models allow to take advantage of all of the benefits of the rotary technology combined with process automation solutions based on latest generation electronic devices.
