Planning to Buy an Injection Blow Molding Machine?

5 Things You Need to Know: 

Before purchasing an injection blow molding machine, there are five things that you need to know. For example, you should be aware of the similarities and difference between stretch blow molding and injection blow molding. Also, you should learn about the blow molding process so that you choose the appropriate machine based on the required finished product and production goals.

1. Plastic Injection Molding Process — To purchase the right machine, it helps to understand the process involved for both stretch blow molding and injection blow molding. While manufacturers use the injection molding process to produce hollow plastic bottles and containers in large quantities, stretch blow molding consists of manufacturing high clarity and high-quality bottles.
2. Reputable Source — Because there are differences between the two blow molding methods, the best machine manufacturer has extensive knowledge of and superior engineering capabilities in producing both Injection Blow Molding machinery (IBM) and Stretch Blow Molding machinery (SBM).

Stretch Blow Molding and Its Different Applications

Stretch blow molding is a manufacturing process that’s well suited for different applications across a broad range of industry sectors.

Blow molding is an engineering procedure in which hollow plastic forms such as water bottles and juice bottles are formed. Stretch blow molding is one type of blow molding that allows the preformed products – in this example that being bottles – to be manufactured into high-quality bottles with high clarity – and the full scope of stretch blow molding allows for an extensive and diverse number of uses. Stretch blow molding is most often used for making plastic bottles for water, juice, carbonated beverages, and a variety of other products such as liquid soaps and detergents. 

The primary advantage to stretch blow molding is that it is known for bi-axial stretching (that is, having two axes). There are significant benefits to this process. For example, it makes for improved barrier properties, better clarity of the formed container, improves the malleable strength of the container, and also makes for acceptable impact tolerances. This all means that there’s an increase in the strength of the container along with a reduction in the weight of the container of roughly 10 to 15 percent (as opposed to other production methods). This in turn translates to cost savings while producing high-quality, attractive containers.
