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 одноступенева машина для видувного формування. By combining the entire production sequence into a single, continuous operation, we deliver the precision, strength, and efficiency required for premium wide-mouth jars.
What is One-Step Injection Stretch Blow Molding (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.
Оптимізований процес
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
- Massive Energy Savings: 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 енергоефективне рішення для одноступінчастого видувного формування featuring a compact footprint, very low scrap rates, and reduced labor costs.

Глибоке занурення: склад обладнання та ключові технології
Producing thick-walled, wide-mouth jars requires absolute synchronization across five core systems.
1. Система впорскування
We utilize a high-precision servo-driven injection unit. A major differentiator is our patented injection screw design, strictly engineered to melt PET uniformly without sheer stress, preventing bubbles or cloudiness in thick preforms required for jars.
Запатентована конструкція інжекційного шнека
- Високоточна система контролю температури (точність ±1℃).
- Сервопривідний агрегат для швидких та високоповторних ін'єкцій.
- Preform wall thickness control system utilizes axial/radial adjustments.
2. Система опалення
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.
- Безконтактне вимірювання температури запобігає пошкодженню поверхні.
- Адаптивна потужність нагріву автоматично самооптимізується залежно від швидкості виробництва.
3. Система розтягування та видування
- Advanced stretch mechanism operates up to 400mm/s with positional accuracy of ±0.1mm.
- Independent high-pressure regulating valves keep pressure fluctuations under ±0.05MPa.
- Synchronous control technology ensures perfect timing between stretch and blow phases.
4. Система прес-форм
Our robust rotary multi-station structures are tailored for food packaging. For heavy peanut butter jars, station configuration is vital.
3-станційна конструкція прес-форми
Combines Injection, Stretch Blow, and Ejection. Best for standard, high-speed jar output.
4-станційна конструкція прес-форми
Includes an extra thermal conditioning station. Essential for very thick-walled preforms to prevent stress whitening.
- Високоточна обробка забезпечує шорсткість поверхні порожнини Ra ≤ 0,8 мкм.
- Optimized cooling channels reduce cooling time by up to 30%.
- Технологія швидкої зміни форми дозволяє виконувати переналаштування за ≤60 хвилин.

Material Applications & Food Packaging Output
Our technology seamlessly processes the ideal thermoplastic materials for food preservation and presentation:
- ПЕТ (поліетилентерефталат): The standard for peanut butter jars. It offers exceptional clarity to display the product, excellent gas barrier properties, and high impact resistance.
- ПП (поліпропілен): Used for hot-fill food items and sauces, offering high chemical resistance and heat tolerance (over 120℃).
- ПЕТГ: Applied in premium, thick-walled cosmetic jars or specialized high-impact food containers.
- ПК (полікарбонат): Used for rigid, highly durable, and reusable containers.
Crucial Integration: Food-Grade Oil-Free Air Compressors
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 Безмасляні гвинтові повітряні компресори 100% 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.

Часті запитання (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 Одноступінчаста машина для видувного формування з низькими витратами на обслуговування. 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.
