Bekum Introduces the EBLOW 307D All Electric Machine at NPE 2009

At NPE 2009, Bekum will introduce the EBLOW 307D twin station all electric blow molding machine, the latest member of Bekums all electric range of machinery.
The EBLOW 206D, the first Bekum all electric blow molding machine was introduced in a running demonstration at the K 2007 show. Since that time the electric drives and control systems have been tested and optimized at Bekums world headquarters in Berlin, Germany .
Subsequent in the field, around the clock production has also been carried out with outstanding results in efficiency and reliability. The EBLOW concept has been fully validated to meet Bekums rigorous machinery standards and the series has now been expanded to include the EBLOW 307D. 

Key Technical Specifications of the EBLOW 307D:
Maximum mold width: 350 mm
Mold clamping force: 100 KN (11.2 U.S. tons)
Dry cycle time: 1.8 seconds 

Advantages of the EBLOW 307D include:
A 15 % overall reduction in overall energy consumption
Shorter cycle times with concurrent machine movements and parallel sequencing
Smooth high precision movements with a positioning accuracy of 0,01 mm
Clamp design with deflection-free platen system and space for optional bottom calibration
Simple media supply with wire and cables instead of hydraulic lines
Noise reduction with elimination of hydraulic pumps and flow noises, 68 dB maximum.
Extended service life without use of mechanical end stops
No oil leaks, ideal for cleanest of blow molding environments

On the performance, flexibility, and reliability side, the EBLOW 307D offers:
Secure production from the first cycle
High-speed production and high efficiency
Tandem blow as an option
Optimized bottle weight control
Consistency in meeting tight product specifications
