The Crucial Role of Compressed Air in the PET Blowing Process

PET blowing is a manufacturing process that uses compressed air to create plastic bottles and containers from PET resin. Polyethylene Terephthalate (PET) is highly popular due to its strength, transparency, and lightweight properties, making it ideal for water and soft drink bottles.

Overview of PET Blowing Process

The PET blowing process involves several steps, from resin preparation to bottle formation, and is widely used in the packaging industry for beverages, food, cosmetics, and household products. Among these steps, compressed air is critical in PET blowing machines, primarily used during the stretch-blow molding process. Its purpose and usage are essential to understand for ensuring efficient and high-quality production of PET bottles.

Importance of Compressed Air

In order to maximise profit margins, these machines are generally operated continuously, and they need compressed air at a pressure of around 25 bar(g) (depending on material, production speed, etc.). S1 100% duty cycle industrial high-pressure compressors or boosters are highly recommended. Any interruption in air delivery or unexpected pressure drops may cause quality problems in the end products.
