Sidel blow moulder shifts
into higher gear
With more than 5,000 blow moulders in service around the world, including 800 SBO Universal™ machines, Sidel has amply demonstrated its blow moulding know-how. Today, nearly 200 machines are operating at more than 40,000 bottles per hour, attesting to Sidel’s experience with high speeds. Thanks to its large installed base, Sidel knows how to take its customers’ needs into account to continue improving the performance of the blow moulders. These improvements apply to blow moulders that are already in service as well as to the latest generations of SBO Universal machines.
eQuick Change:
Format changeover times reduced by 50 per cent
As an optional feature, the SBO Universal2 can come equipped with the new eQuick Change system patented by Sidel. It provides ultra-fast connection of the cooling circuit to the mould neck with just one click. In less than five seconds per mould, all of the piping that feeds the neck circuits with water and the electrical cables for the temperature probes are connected and disconnected. This leads to 50 per cent time savings with respect to the Quick Change version.
