Multi-cavity plastic injection mold

for PET bottleslarge seriesfor the packaging industry

In second place in the world for the production of molds, SIPA is able to deliver global tooling programs for new molds or mold conversions from single to 200 cavities. To ensure top quality, every SIPA mold is tested before shipping on dedicated XFORM machines. HIGHLIGHTS Innovative design of injection components: less wear, lower risk of flashing, better cooling, excellent quality ofparting line Easier filling ability of injection mould thanks to our XMOULD technology which reduces the friction and improves cycle time Optimized cooling layout to support fast cycle times and save energy costs Patented hot runner technology to minimize hot runner downtime 11millions lif cycle guaranteed without need of components refurbishing with LongLife solution special hot runners design to reduce material stress and working pressures XMOULD XMOULD is an innovation from Sipa which allows reduction of friction between molten PET and molding surface of the injection stacks during injection phase, allowing production of thin-wall performs with length on wall thickness ratio above 50 (L/t in the range of 50 to 55 possible), so better/optimized thickness distribution on final packaging (avoid the accumulation of material on zone as under-neck and bottom areas). XMOULD technology givesdesigners the power to create lightweighted preforms which do not compromise performance of the final container.Besides the possibility to reduce preform thicknesses, this solution also improves cycle times due to friction reduction at filling phase.
