The 5 - 10L Double Station Double Die Head Jerry Can Blow Molding Machine is a paragon of modern engineering, designed to meet the high - demand production needs of the plastic container industry. Its unique double - station and double - die - head configuration is a game - changer in the manufacturing process.
Dual Station Advantage
The dual - station setup allows for simultaneous production of two jerry cans. This significantly boosts the output rate. While a single - station machine might produce one can per cycle, the double - station model can produce two, effectively doubling the productivity within the same time frame. For example, if a single - station machine has a cycle time of 30 seconds per can, the double - station machine can produce two cans in 30 seconds, increasing the hourly output from 120 cans to 240 cans. This is a huge advantage for manufacturers looking to scale up their production quickly.
Precision Die Head Technology
The double die heads are engineered with extreme precision. They are responsible for extruding the molten plastic into a parison, the initial shape that will be blown into a jerry can. The ability to control the thickness of the parison is crucial. With advanced computer - aided design (CAD) and manufacturing (CAM) techniques, these die heads can achieve a wall thickness variation of less than ±0.5mm. This level of precision ensures that the final jerry cans are not only of high quality but also meet strict safety and durability standards. For instance, in the production of fuel - storage jerry cans, a consistent wall thickness is essential to prevent leaks and ensure safe handling.
Robust Construction
The machine's frame is made of high - strength steel, providing stability during the high - pressure blow - molding process. The heavy - duty construction also contributes to the machine's long - term reliability. Components such as the clamping mechanism, which holds the molds together during the inflation of the parison, are designed to withstand continuous use and high - stress conditions. The hydraulic or servo - driven clamping systems can exert up to several tons of force, ensuring a tight seal between the molds and preventing any plastic leakage.
Efficient Heating and Cooling Systems
To transform the plastic pellets into a molten state suitable for extrusion, the machine is equipped with high - efficiency heating elements. These heaters can quickly raise the temperature of the plastic to the optimal processing range, which is typically around 180 - 230°C for common plastics like HDPE. On the other hand, the cooling system is equally important. After the parison is blown into the mold, rapid cooling is required to solidify the plastic and give the jerry can its final shape. The cooling system, which may use a combination of air and water cooling, can reduce the temperature of the plastic from processing temperature to ambient temperature within seconds, minimizing the cycle time.
