Single-stage system: from the resin to the finished container without any interruption

SIPA has been designing and manufacturing integrated systems since 1986. The consolidated experience it has acquired and the high technological level it has reached make SIPA one of the world’s leading companies in this sector for medium-high volumes.

SIPA integrated systems, the ECS range, start from the raw material, the resin, and takes the process through to the finished container without any interruption, with total automated control of all phases of production. Costs associated with traditional two-step processes (such as preform handling, preform storage, preform cooling & reheating) are simply not part of the integrated process.

These systems are extremely versatile and can produce a wide range of standard and customized containers: lightweight bottles for standard or hot fill use, ultra-clean or aseptic bottles, pasteurizable containers, warm filled bottles, wide mouth jars, round or square-shaped bottles with capacities up to 3 liters, oval, asymmetric or tailor-made containers, and advanced bottle production systems. A comprehensive, competitive range that makes ECS machines a sure answer to a wide variety of requirements.


HIGHLIGHTS

/
01
  • High production outputs:
    • up to36,000 b/hforstandard bottles
    • up to30,000 b/h for hot fill bottles
    • up to13,500 b/h for wide mouth jars with 73mm neck diameter
  • Lower production costs(no preforms handling/storageand single heating cycle)
  • Simultaneous production of two containers with different weight or shape
  • Optimized bottle cost (dedicated preforms with light neck and bottle weight)
  • High-quality bottles intrinsically clean
  • An extremely versatile platform for the production of special and technical containers
  • Wide flexibility in material processing(PET, RPET, PLA, OPP, etc.)

HIGHLIGHTS

02

Previously dehumidified PET granules are plasticized in the extruder using a screw specifically designed by SIPA. During the plasticization stage the material is melted, homogenized and slowly transported by the screw in order not to generate shear stress and consequently reduce the AA level and the IV drop to the minimum.

  • The extruder continuously plasticizes PET with a specially designed screw eliminating any back-flow of melted material. Thanks to the continuous extrusion, the average melting speed is decreased and results in lower stress on the material and reduced production of AA.
  • Two wide range screws: 120 mm and 140 mm to improve flexibility in the number of injection mold cavities.
  • Electric motor for extruder

PREFORM INJECTION

/
03

The melted material is injected into the mold by means of an optimized injection profile aimed at obtaining high-quality preforms. Preform production cycle time depends on the geometrical shape and weight of the performs, which depends on the container to be produced.
PET injection into the cavities, holding and cooling are performed by the shooting pot (one per each mold): this is NOT present in traditional one-step technology, where the extruder is also involved in preform injection.The advantages of having a separate plasticization/injection system are:

  • Screw is not oversized
  • More accurate shot control
  • Size plastizing to throughput and injection to shot volume


Other advantages:

  • Continuous control of injection and holding phases as a guarantee of repeatability and quality of the process.
  • New hydraulic buffer operated by the software is now available as standard for injection cycle completion in case of power cut-off thus allowing easier mold purge and scrap discharge after power cut-off.
  • Enhanced temperature control of molds (different cooling circuits).
  • Individual control of each injection nozzle temperature.
  • Each plate has individual cooling circuits.
  • Mold with single cam: improved accessibility to facilitate maintenance, simpler hydraulic system, reduced component wears.
  • Molds equipped with self-lubricating bushings and wear plates.
