A complete system for a lower cost by preform

Husky Injection Molding Systems offers its fully electric injection system H-PET AE for the manufacture of PET preform. It was presented at the 2010 edition of the K fair and as well as being compact and efficient, requires little maintenance. The cost per piece of preform them this new machine is very low and its optimal energy consumption. Responds to the needs of customers in emerging markets and is especially suitable for low volume manufacture of preforms for third parties and manufacturers of bottles in niche markets. In this way, Husky addresses a segment of the broader market in order to provide the best return on investment to manufacturers who are starting in the PET market or want to expand their activities in the same. Some of its notable points are his precise control of the process, the precision of mold tolerances and high quality peripherals, resulting in a machine that reduces the cost per piece. The H-PET AE system requires a lower investment of capital and is available with different closures, plasticizers and cavities of mould.

In the K could be a model with 32 cavities, producing a preform of 22 grams of EcoBase for bottle of still water of a litre, in a cycle of 11.8 seconds. Preform them EcoBase are up to 2.5% more light other preforms of low weight, allowing to reduce the consumption of material. Husky provides this type of turnkey solutions, including machine, the mold, the system of hot channels, wiring, electrical distribution and peripherals, all of this is controlled from the Polaris control system. In this way the manufacturer avoids having to compose their own manufacturing cell and can count on the warranty and Husky advice during the lifetime of the manufacturing cell. H-pet AE includes various improvements that improve the flexibility of the configuration for the manufacturers of preforms and bottles, using a single machine for various applications, such as the possibility of changing moulds with minimal loss of time.

On the other hand, another innovation of Husky is the so-called HyPET High Performance Package (HPP) for the manufacture of large quantities of preforms. Stands out for its cycle and their energy efficiency, while maintaining a high level of reliability, repeatability, and quality of preform them.

Also introduced the model in the K, where he worked with a cast of 96 cavities making EcoBase preform for bottles of 500 ml of water without gas, 9.9 grams in weight and in a rough course of 5 seconds. Given that Husky supplied the entire line, is in your hands the improvement of aspects as the flow of the material from the pellets up preform, achieving a higher quality of her preform and a significant improvement in the injection of preform of thin wall. For example, a preform for bottle of 500 ml for water without gas, it is possible to make a preform with a thickness of 1.5 mm wall and a wall of the thread of 0,8 mm.

The new system can reduce the cycles in at least 5% and improve energy efficiency by 15% in comparison with standard systems HyPET. The stability of the process of the new HyPET PPH is greater, in the same way as the constancy of the pieces. Greater integration of the production line simplifies implementation, while maintaining the operating tonnage and warning when the machine requires maintenance. This prolongs their service life.
