(ThomasNet) -- Bottle Switch improves
blow molder flexibility by reducing mold changeover time in order to adapt to
accelerated product changeover times on filler. Less than 1 min is required to
change mold, reducing machine downtime while helping to avoid investment in
storage silos or intermediate palletization. Semi-automatic solution places
required blowing station directly in front of operator, who is only required to
change molds. Removal/installation in mold support units is tool free.
Sidel answers the call with its new quick format changeover system, the
Bottle Switch(TM). Sidel launches the Bottle Switch(TM), the new Sidel-patented
quick format changeover system. The initial goal is to improve blow molder
flexibility by reducing the mold changeover time in order to adapt to faster
product changeover times on the filler: less than a minute to change a mold.
This flexibility helps reduce machine downtime and therefore improves TCO. It is
also a solution that helps customers avoid investing in storage silos or
intermediate palletization.
