Manufacturing wide-mouth containers for viscous food products like peanut butter presents unique packaging challenges. The jar must be exceptionally strong to prevent denting during filling and transport, offer crystal-clear transparency to showcase the product, and feature a flawless neck finish to ensure a hermetic seal. To conquer these challenges, food packaging manufacturers turn to Ever Power’s advanced maszyna do formowania rozdmuchowego jednoetapowego. By combining the entire production sequence into a single, continuous operation, we deliver the precision, strength, and efficiency required for premium wide-mouth jars.
Czym jest jednoetapowe formowanie wtryskowe z rozciąganiem i rozdmuchiwaniem (ISBM)?
One-step ISBM is an incredibly efficient plastics forming technology designed for high-precision hollow containers. It is widely applied across food, beverage, and cosmetics sectors for producing items like PET jars, water bottles, and Tritan sports cups. The core innovation is that the three critical phases—Injection, Stretch, and Blow Molding—are executed sequentially within one integrated machine frame. This completely eliminates the need to cool, eject, store, and secondarily reheat preforms, resulting in immense energy savings, zero surface scratching, and superior dimensional stability for wide-mouth designs.
Usprawniony przepływ procesu
Molten plastic forms the preform, rigidly defining the wide-mouth threaded neck to exact tolerances for secure capping.
Latent heat from the injection phase is preserved and perfectly distributed to condition the preform for uniform expansion.
Biaxial stretching provides the jar with maximum drop-impact resistance and vital oxygen barrier properties.
The defect-free peanut butter jar is automatically ejected onto the conveyor, ready for labeling and filling.
Core Advantages for Food Packaging
- Ogromne oszczędności energii: Skipping the secondary preform reheating stage cuts total energy consumption by approximately 40%.
- Pristine Visual Appeal: Handling the preform internally prevents scratches and scuffs, ensuring glass-like transparency for your peanut butter.
- Unyielding Neck Stability: The wide-mouth neck is never reheated or tumbled, guaranteeing perfect thread geometry for hermetic sealing.
- High ROI: Benefit from an energy efficient one step blow molding machine solution featuring a compact footprint, very low scrap rates, and reduced labor costs.

Głębokie nurkowanie: Skład sprzętu i kluczowe technologie
Producing thick-walled, wide-mouth jars requires absolute synchronization across five core systems.
1. Układ wtryskowy
We utilize a high-precision servo-driven injection unit. Głównym wyróżnikiem jest nasza opatentowana konstrukcja ślimaka wtryskowego, strictly engineered to melt PET uniformly without sheer stress, preventing bubbles or cloudiness in thick preforms required for jars.
Opatentowana konstrukcja ślimaka wtryskowego
- Wysokiej precyzji system kontroli temperatury (dokładność ±1℃).
- Jednostka napędzana serwomechanizmem umożliwiająca szybkie i powtarzalne wstrzykiwanie.
- Preform wall thickness control system utilizes axial/radial adjustments.
2. System ogrzewania
Properly conditioning a wide-mouth preform is critical to avoid uneven wall thickness during blowing.
- Zoned heating control for precise temperature profiling across the heavy preform body.
- Bezkontaktowy pomiar temperatury zapobiega uszkodzeniom powierzchni.
- Adaptacyjna moc grzewcza automatycznie optymalizuje się na podstawie szybkości produkcji.
3. System rozciągania i dmuchania
- Advanced stretch mechanism operates up to 400mm/s with positional accuracy of ±0.1mm.
- Niezależne zawory regulujące wysokie ciśnienie utrzymują wahania ciśnienia poniżej ±0,05 MPa.
- Synchronous control technology ensures perfect timing between stretch and blow phases.
4. System form
Our robust rotary multi-station structures are tailored for food packaging. For heavy peanut butter jars, station configuration is vital.
Struktura formy 3-stanowiskowej
Combines Injection, Stretch Blow, and Ejection. Best for standard, high-speed jar output.
Struktura formy 4-stanowiskowej
Includes an extra thermal conditioning station. Essential for very thick-walled preforms to prevent stress whitening.

Material Applications & Food Packaging Output
Our technology seamlessly processes the ideal thermoplastic materials for food preservation and presentation:
- PET (politereftalan etylenu): The standard for peanut butter jars. It offers exceptional clarity to display the product, excellent gas barrier properties, and high impact resistance.
- PP (polipropylen): Used for hot-fill food items and sauces, offering high chemical resistance and heat tolerance (over 120℃).
- PETG: Applied in premium, thick-walled cosmetic jars or specialized high-impact food containers.
- PC (poliwęglan): Used for rigid, highly durable, and reusable containers.
Kluczowa integracja: bezolejowe sprężarki powietrza o jakości spożywczej
In food packaging, safety and quality are non-negotiable. The blow molding air compressor is a critical component of your ISBM line. During the stretch blow phase, high-pressure air is forcefully injected directly into the heated preform, making intimate contact with the interior surface of the peanut butter jar.
Using a standard industrial compressor introduces the severe risk of microscopic oil vapors, moisture, and dust contaminating the air stream and adhering to the inside of the jar. For a food product, this contamination violates strict hygiene standards, alters taste, causes spoilage, and leads to failed audits. Furthermore, achieving uniform wall thickness in a wide-mouth jar requires absolute air pressure stability; fluctuations result in weak spots that dent during filling.
Ever Power solves these critical issues by providing perfectly matched 100% bezolejowe sprężarki śrubowe powietrza integrated seamlessly with our molding systems. These compressors deliver a sterile, dry, and highly consistent high-pressure air supply. By sourcing your equipment and compressor from Ever Power, you guarantee FDA-grade hygiene, pristine jar clarity, and the exact dimensional precision needed for airtight seals.

Często zadawane pytania (FAQ)
1. Why is a one-step machine essential for wide-mouth jars?
Wide-mouth preforms are large and heavy. In a two-step process, handling and reheating these large preforms often leads to ovality and neck distortion. Our one-step process holds the preform securely by the neck throughout the entire cycle, ensuring perfect dimensional stability for hermetic sealing.
2. Can this equipment produce thick-walled jars without stress whitening?
Yes. For particularly thick-walled jars, we utilize our 4-station machine configuration. The extra thermal conditioning station allows the heavy preform’s core and surface temperatures to equalize perfectly, preventing stress whitening during the stretch blow phase.
3. What is the typical cycle time for a 500g peanut butter jar?
Depending on the specific PET gram weight and mold cavity count, cycle times for a 500g jar generally range between 18 to 28 seconds. Our efficient cooling channels are designed to maximize output.
4. How complicated is the maintenance for this machine?
We design our equipment to be a jednoetapowa maszyna do formowania rozdmuchowego o niskich kosztach utrzymania. Routine maintenance is straightforward and guided by our diagnostic control system. The patented screw is highly durable, requiring only standard purging during changeovers.
5. How fast can we switch production to a different jar size?
Our machines feature rapid mold change technology. A trained team can completely swap out the injection preform mold and the blow mold, and load new operational parameters, in 60 minutes or less.
