Cooling Options

Blow Side Cooling

On the blow side, cooling leads to the stability of the container, which directly affects and determines the production speed. The cooling capacity must be predictable and high.

On the Blow Side the available cooling options are:

  • Vertiflow
         Available for all machines
  • Vertiflow + Vertiflow Assist
         Available for AIS/NIS
  • Vertiflow + Travelling Radial Cooling
         Available for AIS, in case of Mold Transition from angular opening machines
  • Vertiflow + Stack Cooling
         Available for IS

The wind cooling plays also a key role, and its optimization could avoid waste of energy.

Blank Side Cooling

The final container glass distribution is primarily set by the blank mold temperature profile and the resulting parison quality. Therefore a predictable, adjustable and stable blank mold temperature grid is vital to achieve a high container quality. The blank cooling is in fact a parison conditioning system.

On the Blow Side the available cooling options are:

  • Vertiflow (ideal for B&B)
         Available for all machines
  • InVertiflow (ideal for NNP&B)
         Available for AIS/NIS
  • Travelling Radial Cooling
         Available for AIS, in case of Mold Transition from angular opening machines

Blow Side Cooling

VertiFlow through the bed
  • High cooling capacity
  • Individual cooling air pressure for blank and blow mold cooling is possible

  • Removable vacuum ducts
VertiFlow Assist on AIS & NIS
  • Addition to the efficient VertiFlow Cooling
  • Higher cooling efficiency 360° resulting in higher speed
  • Extra cooling on specific critical areas
  • Independent control through left and right on/off control
  • Up to 20% higher cooling capacity
  • Upgrade on existing AIS machines possible

Blank Side Cooling

VertiFlow
  • Efficient cooling air utilization = energy savings
  • More constant potential predictable mold temperature
  • Production speed increase
  • Less job-change and production downtime
  • Noise reduction
InVertiFlow
  • Higher cooling efficiency -> Speed increase potential
  • Individual cooling of molds -> Optimized cooling conditions
  • Fumes and heat carried away -> Improved operator environment
  • Easier mold change -> Reduced downtime
  • Traveling radial cooling
