Mold cooling units by PET Technologies: technology & experience
Bottle is packaging. Bottle is protection. Bottle is attraction. Bottle is communication. It is difficult to overestimate the role of mold cooling unit to get a PET bottle shining as if it were glass. Projects with multinational companies implemented by PET Technologies prove it.
High technology. Full production cycle located at 9000 m2, over 140 metal working machines, 2 R&D departments: these are PET Technologies manufacturing facilities! The molds production site is equipped with 4- and 5-axis machining centers with CNC: Deckel Maho (Germany), Doosan (South Korea), Micron MILL (Switzerland):
- high automation level (production cost-cutting);
- high precision and processing speed;
- products’ manufacturing of any complexity.
This infrastructure permits PET Technologies to produce molds and cooling units for all European brands of rotary blow molding machines. It has converted us into an authorized of global brands!
Advanced software. PET Technologies develops molds in general and cooling units in particular with the help of Catia V5, the world leading engineering and design tool. Such industries as aerospace and automotive, industrial equipment and plant design, consumer goods and architecture widely use this software due to the high capability of surface modelling and precision.
Premium quality. PET Technologies uses duralumin alloys, series 6000, of German origin. Its hardness is up to 100HB. The unique mechanical properties of this type of aluminum has an optimum ratio of hardness and plasticity for shock loads.
Depending on customer’s preference, PET Technologies can supply anodized molds’ cooling units. What is anodization? It is electrochemical coating of the surface layer. It provides additional hardness, increases wear resisting properties and protects against corrosion.
Approved by customers. “The sets of mold cooling units, supplied by PET Technologies, were produced in full compliance with the specifications of the original manufacturer. They proved to be excellent. We are impressed with the coating of the products: for 2 years of use, we have not detected any corrosion”, – Chief Engineering Officer of Berdychiv Beer Factory, Mykhailo Burlaka, shared his experience.
It was in 2020 that a leading beer manufacturer contacted PET Technologies, the company with over 20 years of experience in the industry. He needed to renew the mold-cooling units for KHS Blomax 6 S3. Once all technical details clarified, we launched the project. It has become an element of success for both companies!
