SMI S.p.A. San Giovanni Bianco (BG), Italy

The new EBS K ERGON stretch-blow moulder is compact, efficient, flexible, ergonomic and equipped with innovative technologies inspired to Industry 4.0 and the Internet of Things (IoT).

Available in 2,3 and 4-cavity models, it is the ideal solution for manufacturing PET containers in the output rate range from 3,000 to 9,000 bottles/hour and offers all the benefits of the rotary technology.

Compactness

The preform-heating section is integrated with the stretch-blow moulding section into a single module, which is easily accessible thanks to an ergonomic frame equipped with slightly rounded safety doors.

Efficiency and eco-friendliness

The infrared lamps for preform heating, equipped with thermo-reflective panels made of composite material, distribute the heat over the preform uniformly, thus ensuring high-quality bottles and lower energy consumption.

Precision and flexibility

Stretch-blowing stations are equipped with motorized stretch rods, controlled by digital servo drives (they do not require mechanical cams), ensuring the utmost precision and flexibility of the stretch-blowing process.

Speed and easy use

The format changeover is simple and fast thanks to the MotorNet System® automation and control system, which governs the machine; moreover, the usage of high-performance valves shortens pre-blowing and blowing times.

Compact line

The new EBS K ERGON is also available in ECOBLOC® configuration, combined with a filling and capping module, in order to achieve high performances at reduced costs in the bottling of beverages and liquid food into containers of up to 3L.
