Industries / Blow Molding
Take empty bottles off the molder, cleanly
Bottles leaving a blow molder are warm, light, and easy to deform. CMD's take-away conveying and annealing move them off the molder and across the plant without jams, drops, or scuffing.
In summary
Custom Metal Designs builds blow-mold take-away conveying for empty plastic bottles, the capability the company was founded on in 1972. Cable and table-top conveyors carry warm bottles off the molder, annealing relaxes them so they hold their shape, and accumulation buffers the line so a downstream stop doesn't back up the molder. CMD engineers the take-away to your molder and bottle, builds it in Central Florida, and is ISO 9001:2015 certified.
The problem
The problem at the molder
A blow molder runs continuously, and empty bottles come off warm and fragile. Handle them too roughly and they scuff or deform; back the line up and the molder has to stop. The take-away conveyor has to be gentle, fast, and forgiving of a downstream hiccup, all at once.
