Extrusion Blow Molding is the simplest type of blow moulding. A hot tube of plastic material, called a parison, is dropped from an extruder and captured in a water-cooled mould. Once the moulds are closed, the air blown through the top of the neck of the container. When the hot plastic material is blown up and touches the walls of the mould, the material freezes, the container now maintains its rigid shape.
We at CMP, believe that Extrusion Blow Moulding is looking forward to converting parts/ products, having two components assembling into one Extrusion Blow Moulded part. Because Extrusion Blow Molding is a hollow part process, both sides of a product could mould together.
For coloured bottles, we often fed colourant into the extruder at a controlled rate and mixed it with the resin while being melted. If barrier and adhesive layers are required, they are added separately and combined in a co-extrusion head.
Different industry segments use EBM machines such as packaging (bottles), Pharma industries, Food grade industries, Cosmetic industries etc. Our products range from 50ml to 5000 ltr.
Following are details of the Blow Moulding Process:
Every blow moulded product will require some degree of additional processing after it leaves the blow moulding machine. These secondary processes are used to remove unwanted materials, add features, and improve functionality.
In addition to removing the flash, secondary (downstream) operations include flame treatment, leak detection, and post-mould decorating. Flame treatment is sometimes used before bottle decorating to improve ink adhesion. Leak detection, on the other hand, is always required to ensure the stability of the bottle.
Whether routine flash removal or something more advanced such as welding and assembly, designers should consider which secondary processes will be critical in finishing their blow-moulded product.
Materials with High Melt Strength are needed in Extrusion Blow Molding to reduce the amount of Sag (and excess thinning) in the Parison. Wide Spec/Higher Molecular Weight grades are used to give the parison more strength to hang without tearing or excessive sagging.
We, at CMP, have always moved forward with one motto ‘Quality over Quantity’ and with this same motto we have come this far and gave our best to our customers.
