◆ PF24-8B Model ExplainedPF The PF Series are all 1.5-step injection stretch blow molding machines

that combine the best of the 1-step and 2-step processes to mold bottles direct from PET resin.

24 Up to 24 cavities of preform molding-8B Up to 8 preforms at a time are blown into bottles at three times per

injection cycle.

◆ Handle InsertionBy opting for the /12H variant of the PF24-8B and with the addition of an automated handle inserter system, the production of up to 3 liter bottles with a PP or HDPE handle becomes possible. The bottle leaves the machine with the handle already fixed in place so no further processing is required - an innovation first introduced to the market by ASB.

◆ Neck OrientationThe neck orientation system uses an integrated register on the neck of the preform to assist alignment to a specific position before entering the blowing station of the machine. In normal molding, after preforms are transferred and temperature adjusted, the neck position will be random. Although this is not a problem for simple screw-top containers or snap-on closures, there are a variety of container designs where it may be desired to orientate the cap with the body such as flip-top caps or where the cap contains some type of pouring aid.Another common application of neck orientation is where high ovality or pinch grip containers utilize an ovalized preform thickness to provide optimum wall thickness in the finished container so must be correctly aligned before blowing.

◆ Double Taper Lip CavitiesIn the 24-8 configuration, maximum thread diameter is normally 30mm but by opting for a double taper lip cavity mold construction, the popular 38mm thread diameter can be accommodated.

◆ Handle FormingAs an alternative to in-mold inserted handles, the PF24 can be set up with a handle forming system. An external add-on hydraulic power-unit is used to drive forming parts within the blow cavity so that during stretch blow molding, the shape of the mold changes resulting in full quality form of shapes that were traditionally impossible.Depending on the container design, the system can be used to mold

either deep pinch grip style handles (left) or post-molding inserted handles (overleaf).The same technique can also be applied to any specialized container design requiring unusually deep indents.

◆ Typical Containers • Applications: Beverages, edible oil, salad dressing,

seasoning, detergent, household, liquor, general foods, pharmaceutical, agrochemical, etc.

• Moldable resins: PET, RPET, PLA, PEN etc.• Shapes: Round, oval, square, ultra-light,

handled, etc.

As the preforms move into the blow station, pitch is increased and stretch blow molding takes place using servo driven blow clamping and stretch rods.

High Output 1.5-Step PET Bottle Molding

The largest model in ASB’s innovative PF Series, is an incredibly compact molding solution that provided high output of PET

bottles. PET resin is molded first into preforms, then directly into bottles all within one machine ensuring high container quality

and visual appeal that easily surpasses 2-step molding methods and does it within just 25-30% of the factory space required by

a competitive 2-step system.

In the 12-4 configuration 5 liter, 83 gram bottles can be molded at up to 2,400bph. In the 24-8 configuration, production rates up

to 9,000bph can be achieved for a 500ml lightweight water bottle.

Thanks to a range of optional molding techniques the PF24 also has extended capabilities to mold a range of non-standard

containers including high ratio ovality and a variety of handle types.

Higher Quality Production & Vastly Reduced Space.

Model Features Major Options6. Pitch Change & Stretch Blow

Preforms are picked up, inverted and transferred to the blow transfer system. In the case of the /12H model, handles are transferred together with preforms.

5. Preform Inverter

ASB’s 1.5-step machines take raw material in and output finished products with no wasted space or risk of preform damage.

1. PET Resin

1.5-Step MoldingFrom resin to finished product in one machine.

Blown bottles are ejected via a neck conveyor onto the user’s conveyor system.

7. Bottle EjectPreforms are injection molded and partially cooled in a vertical clamping system providing the highest level of preform quality.

2. Preform Injection & Cooling

Preform movement is changed from batch to continuous and they are heated using tuned quartz halogen heating lamps to ensure perfect temperature stability.

4. Continuous Temperature Optimization

Preform cooling & temperature adjustment continues in the twin-station conditioning block while preforms are inverted and placed onto preform holders.

3. Secondary Cooling/ Conditioning

Deep pinch grip style handle provides easy grip with no additional process required.

In-mold inserted handles are securely locked into position during blow molding.

Handle unscrambler and insertion system added to the PF24-8B/12H.

Notched support ring provides a register point.

Standard single taper lipcavity design.

Optional double taper lipcavity design.

Holding a bottle containing 3 liters of a liquid product is not comfortable for most people so handles are generally required at these sizes. In this typical edible oil container design the main feature is a post-molding, clip-in handle.To ensure handle integrity deep and precise recesses are required for handle fitting but due to the inherent stiffness of PET specialized molding techniques are required. In this case, the blow mold is manufactured with hydraulically actuated forming parts that are precisely timed to move as the container is blown.To accommodate the handle forming, the container is molded with the parting on the front face of the container – not a problem with ASB’s extreme high quality molds, as it is virtually invisible in the finished product. The result, a high quality, easy to use and elegant looking container.
