EP-HGA.ES-4C130 Food Jars and Cans Bottle Blow Molding Machine
The EP-HGA.ES-4C130 marks a clear transition point in the Food Jars and Cans blow molding machine series: the step from dual-cavity to four-cavity production. With a theoretical output of 3,200 bph and four simultaneous mold cavities operating within a single machine cycle, this bottle blow molding machine effectively multiplies per-shift output against the dual-cavity models without requiring proportionally more floor space, operator headcount, or utility connections.
The machine operates on the two-step blow molding machine principle: preforms are injection-moulded separately, fully cooled, then loaded into the machine’s 92-position preform holder track for reheating and stretch-blow forming. The high holder count — the largest in this series — reflects the thermal conditioning requirement of four simultaneous cavities. Each preform must arrive at the blowing station at a consistent orientation temperature across its full wall cross-section, and the 92-holder oven track provides the dwell time to achieve that consistency even under ambient temperature variation typical of production environments in tropical markets.
The 4C130 operates within a footprint of 5,450 × 2,070 × 2,320 mm and at a machine weight of 6,500 kg. Its rated heating power of 68 kW, with normal operating draw at 30 kW, reflects the energy management that a four-cavity wide-mouth blow molding machine at this scale requires — and the 44% operating-to-rated ratio confirms the efficiency of zone-controlled infrared heating relative to older constant-power oven designs.

Why Choose the EP-HGA.ES-4C130
Moving to a four-cavity blow molding machine is fundamentally an operating economics decision. The capital cost per cavity drops, the per-unit energy and labour cost drops, and the machine's contribution to total packaging line cost per container produced improves substantially against running two dual-cavity machines side by side. The 4C130 achieves 3,200 bph within a footprint only marginally larger than the dual-cavity models — which is the core reason four-cavity platforms are the standard choice for food packaging operations that have validated their container design and are scaling committed volume rather than exploring format options.
🔢 Four Cavities, 3,200 bph
The four-cavity configuration of this blow molding machine produces 3,200 bottles per hour — 78% more than the comparable dual-cavity standard model at essentially the same utility connection footprint. For food packaging operations running two or three shifts, this throughput difference compounds into millions of additional containers per year against the same labour and building cost.
🧵 92 Preform Holders
At 92 holders, this is the highest preform holder count in the series. This extended oven track gives each preform maximum dwell time for thorough and uniform reheating before it reaches the blow station — critical for consistent wall thickness in wide-neck jar and can formats where the preform shoulder mass is higher than in standard narrow-neck bottle preforms.
🥫 Incision-Free Can Forming
The four-cavity platform retains the proprietary incision-free can-forming mechanism available across this series. Easy-open can geometry is completed inside the blow mold at all four cavities simultaneously — no downstream cutting station required. For food processors transitioning from metal or composite cans at volume, this four-cavity auto blowing machine delivers the highest incision-free can output in the standard range.
⚡ 30 kW Operating Draw
Normal operating power of 30 kW against a rated maximum of 68 kW reflects effective zone-controlled infrared heating management. That 44% operating ratio, at 3,200 bph output, translates to a competitive energy cost per unit produced — a number that accumulates significance across multi-shift food packaging production schedules measured in millions of containers per month.
🔄 Multi-Resin Support
PET, PETG, PC, PCTG, and PP material compatibility is maintained across all four cavities. Food packaging operations that run different container families from the same machine — for example, PET condiment jars and PETG pharmaceutical supplement containers on separate shifts — benefit from the platform flexibility without requiring a separate plastic blow molding machine for each resin type.
🎛️ Servo-PLC Precision
Servo-driven stretching rods at all four cavity positions are individually controlled by the central PLC architecture. At 3,200 bph across four cavities, maintaining consistent rod travel accuracy across all positions simultaneously is the technical requirement that separates a precision pet blow molding machine from a machine that degrades output quality as cavity count increases. Servo positioning holds that accuracy throughout the production shift without drift.

Machine Architecture at Four-Cavity Scale
Engineering a four-cavity blow molding machine for wide-mouth food jar production requires more than simply scaling up a two-cavity design. Each additional cavity adds mechanical mass to the mold tooling package, increases the clamping force requirement, and demands higher oven heating capacity. The EP-HGA.ES-4C130 addresses each of these scaling requirements with structural decisions made specifically for four-cavity wide-neck operation. The clamping unit carries four mold cavity sets on precision-machined platens whose parallelism is verified at the factory and maintained by the frame's structural stiffness under repeated high-cycle clamping forces. The 148 mm clamping stroke and 378 mm mold-open distance provide the working space that food jar and can tooling at this cavity count requires, without extending the machine footprint unnecessarily.
The 92-holder preform oven track is the defining thermal management feature of this model. At 3,200 bph, each preform has a defined oven dwell time that must be sufficient to heat a wide-neck preform's full wall cross-section to orientation temperature — not just its outer surface. The 92-holder configuration achieves this at the machine's rated output rate across all four cavity positions simultaneously, maintaining the preform temperature consistency that is the primary determinant of four-cavity output quality. Zone-controlled infrared lamp banks allow the operator to define heating profiles across preform height sections, enabling rapid adjustment when changing between container formats or preform wall thickness specifications without restarting the oven or waiting for thermal equilibration.
Air delivery at 35 kg/cm² blowing pressure with 6,000 ltr/min high-pressure consumption supports simultaneous blowing across four cavities per cycle. An internal air recovery system routes residual high-pressure air from the four formed containers after each cycle back into the low-pressure supply circuit — providing net compressed air savings that partially offset the four-cavity demand. Cooling water at 8–12 °C with 30 ltr/min flow rate manages both mold and machine thermal loads; the 30 ltr/min figure reflects the efficient cooling channel design across four cavities rather than a simple linear scaling of single-cavity values.
Mold System
응용 시나리오
The EP-HGA.ES-4C130 targets food and condiment packaging operations where volume has been committed, container design is validated, and the production requirement is now about sustaining high output efficiently rather than exploring format flexibility. At 3,200 bph across four cavities, this blow molding machine for sale is the correct platform when throughput — not configuration range — is the primary production constraint.
🧂 Condiment Jars at Volume
Chilli paste, soy sauce, oyster sauce, mustard, and similar products in 200–1,500 ml PET or PETG jars. At 3,200 bph this pet blow molding machine sustains the output rates that major condiment brands in Colombia, the UK, and Southeast Asia run their primary packaging lines at — one machine, one operator, sustained through two or three shifts.
🫐 Dried Fruits & Snack Foods
Mixed nuts, trail mixes, dried berries, and grain snacks in wide-mouth jars where consumer hand-access is a packaging requirement. The 98 mm maximum neck diameter of this bottle molding machine covers the standard wide-mouth snack jar format used across retail grocery in Asia-Pacific and Latin American markets.
🛢️ Edible Oil — Mid-Format
500 ml to 1,500 ml edible oil containers in transparent PET for consumer retail. The two-step blow molding machine process achieves the wall thickness uniformity and optical clarity that supermarket edible oil brands specify for shelf display, while 3,200 bph output supports the production volumes that household oil brands require during peak seasonal demand periods.
🥫 Easy-Open Cans
Consumer food cans in PET format — ambient-shelf products, pet food supplement, single-serve food service portions. The incision-free forming mechanism operates across all four cavities simultaneously, producing clean can profiles at the full 3,200 bph rate without a secondary trimming step. This is the highest output easy-open can production capability in the standard range.
💊 Supplement & OTC Pharma Jars
Multi-count vitamin, mineral, and OTC tablet containers in PETG or PC. Contract manufacturers serving multiple supplement brands from a single production line use this four-cavity two stage blow molding machine for the per-unit cost reduction it provides on high-volume standard jar formats, switching between brands using recipe-stored PLC parameter sets between batches.
🧴 Personal Care & Cosmetic Jars
Wide-mouth cream jars, body scrub containers, and hair care product tubs in PET, PETG, or PP. The four-cavity output rate suits cosmetic brand contract manufacturers running these formats at the high volumes that mass-market personal care labels require, particularly in markets across Colombia, Brazil, and Southeast Asia where local cosmetic contract packaging is expanding rapidly.

How to Choose the Right Blow Molding Machine for Your Food Packaging Line
The EP-HGA.ES-4C130 is the correct specification when your production programme meets all of the following: container volume below 1,500 ml; neck diameter at or below 98 mm; production volume that benefits from 3,200 bph capacity; and a container design that is production-validated and unlikely to change significantly within the machine's expected service life. If neck diameter requirements exceed 98 mm, the four-cavity wide or extra-large models in this series provide the correct specification. If volume is below 1,500 bph across all shifts, a two-cavity model offers lower capital outlay with essentially the same container quality and process flexibility.
When evaluating pet blowing machine manufacturers on a four-cavity platform, four technical points deserve careful scrutiny. The first is inter-cavity dimensional consistency: request wall thickness distribution data across all four cavities from a factory acceptance trial using a preform close to your target specification, not a manufacturer's preferred sample. The second is preform holder count: 92 holders on this model provides genuine oven dwell time at 3,200 bph — a lower holder count at the same output rate compresses preform dwell time in ways that affect temperature uniformity before the blow station. Third, confirm that servo actuation is used at all four stretching rod positions, not only at two. Fourth, assess the blowing pressure stability specification: 35 kg/cm² maintained across all four cavities simultaneously requires a high-pressure air system that is correctly sized and validated for four-cavity demand, not estimated from a single-cavity baseline.
For procurement teams in Colombia, Australia, and Brazil evaluating blow molding machine for sale options for local food packaging production, we configure all machines to destination market electrical standards at the factory. Detailed commissioning documentation, on-site commissioning support, and validated auxiliary equipment specifications are standard components of every machine supply package — not optional extras.
회사 소개
More than twenty years of engineering concentrated on blow molding machine development have built a manufacturing capability and field knowledge base that is directly reflected in every machine we produce. Our engineering team has commissioned blow molding machine installations across food, pharmaceutical, cosmetic, and beverage packaging operations on six continents — including food packaging facilities in Colombia, Brazil, and across Southeast Asia where the combination of tropical ambient conditions and high-volume production schedules places specific demands on machine thermal management and cycle consistency that temperate-market field experience does not cover.
Every precision component in the EP-HGA.ES-4C130 — clamping platens, stretching rod assemblies, preform holder tracks, mold clamping mechanisms — is produced in-house on our CNC machining centre rather than subcontracted. This vertical integration is the technical foundation of our build quality consistency, and it means that the tolerances specified in the design are the tolerances actually achieved in the finished machine, not the tolerance stack that accumulates through a multi-supplier subcontract chain.
National patents across multiple machine generations protect the innovations that differentiate our machines from generic alternatives — including the incision-free can-forming mechanism, the preform oven zone-control architecture, and several mechanical features of the four-cavity clamping system. For procurement teams whose container programme requires sustained four-cavity output at food-grade quality standards, these are not marketing claims — they are engineering commitments backed by patent documentation and field production data from operating customer facilities.

자주 묻는 질문
Q1. What are the throughput advantages of using a four-cavity fully automatic blow moulding machine over two separate dual-cavity machines for food jar production in Colombia?
A four-cavity blow molding machine at 3,200 bph provides higher throughput than two separate dual-cavity machines at 1,800 bph each in three ways that matter operationally in Colombia. First, a single four-cavity machine requires one operator rather than two, one utility connection set rather than two, and one maintenance schedule rather than two — all of which reduce operating cost disproportionately to the throughput increase. Second, the single machine has a smaller combined footprint than two machines installed side by side. Third, quality management is simpler: one machine produces from a single preform batch and a single PLC parameter set, eliminating the batch-to-batch variation that arises when two machines run nominally identical settings that differ slightly in practice.
Q2. How does a two-step blow molding machine with 92 preform holders maintain consistent output quality across all four cavities during long production runs?
The 92 preform holders on this machine provide a long oven track that ensures each preform receives adequate and consistent infrared heating dwell time before reaching the blow station — even during the extended production runs where ambient temperature variation in the production hall would affect a shorter track's heating uniformity. Zone-controlled infrared lamp banks allow the operator to define a heating profile that compensates for the higher shoulder mass of wide-neck preforms relative to standard beverage preforms. At the blow station, servo-driven stretching rods at all four cavity positions receive the same PLC-commanded travel parameters simultaneously, eliminating the between-cavity stretching variation that pneumatic systems accumulate over long production runs.
Q3. Which automatic pet blowing machine configuration is most suitable for a condiment and edible oil packaging plant in Southeast Asia looking to scale production to over 3,000 bottles per hour?
For a Southeast Asian condiment and edible oil packaging plant targeting above 3,000 bph on containers up to 1,500 ml and 98 mm neck diameter, the four-cavity model in this series is the precise fit. Its 3,200 bph theoretical output covers the throughput requirement. The 98 mm neck diameter ceiling covers standard wide-mouth condiment and edible oil jar neck specifications used across Southeast Asian retail markets. The machine's compatibility with PET and PETG resins accommodates both product categories from a single machine platform.
Q4. What compressed air system specification does a four-cavity pet blow molding machine require, and how should plant engineers plan the compressor installation for food-grade production?
The EP-HGA.ES-4C130 requires high-pressure compressed air at 35 kg/cm² with a consumption of 6,000 ltr/min under four-cavity production conditions. An oil-free compressor system is mandatory for food-grade production — food contact contamination risk from oil-wetted compressor air makes oil-lubricated compressors non-compliant with food safety standards in most markets. The compressor installation should be sized to the upper consumption figure, not the midpoint, to prevent air pressure drops during the peak demand phase of the mold-close and blowing sequence. A buffer receiver vessel of adequate volume — typically 10–15 times the per-cycle consumption — smooths demand peaks and prevents compressor cycling that degrades pressure stability. Low-pressure air at 7 kg/cm² and 800 ltr/min for the preform transfer and control circuit is supplied by a separate lower-pressure stage or compressor.
Q5. When is the right time for a food packaging operation to upgrade from a dual-cavity to a four-cavity blow molding machine, and what production metrics should trigger that decision?
The correct trigger for upgrading to a four-cavity blow molding machine is when your dual-cavity machine is consistently running at or above 85% utilisation across two or more production shifts, and when your container specification — neck diameter, volume, wall thickness, and resin type — is stable enough that you are unlikely to require significant format flexibility from the new machine in the next three to five years. If your production consistently requires more than 1,800 bph of containers within the 98 mm neck diameter and 1,500 ml volume parameters the 4C130 covers, and if running two dual-cavity machines presents operational complexity that a single four-cavity machine eliminates, the economics of the four-cavity model are usually superior within eighteen months of operation.
