Plastics Moulding Methods Blow Moulding

11 Oct.,2023

 

Injection blow moulding is used for manufacturing large quantities of hollow parts, e.g. bottles, jars and other containers.  There are three stages to the process – injection, blowing and ejection.

Injection – First a perform needs to be made.  Molten plastic is injected into a hollow, pre-heated mould which forms the external shape.  This is clamped around a mandrel (core rod) which forms the internal shape.  This perform is produced with a fully formed neck of the bottle or jar.

Blowing – The mould opens and the core rod is clamped into a chilled blow mould.  The core rod opens allowing compressed air into the perform inflating it to the finished shape.

Ejection – Once cooled the mould opens and the finished item is stripped off the core rod.  As with injection moulding, the perform and blow moulds can have multiple cavities.
