Agr International Inc. offers its Agr Process Pilot automated blowmolder control system to provide an extra layer of process management and quality assurance for a German juice maker shifting from 25% recycled PET (rPET) to 100% rPET bottles in response to a sustainability directive.
Wilmington Machinery continues development of its Long Stroke Shuttle Blow Molding machines to complement its current offering of high volume production Continuous Rotary Extrusion Blow Molding machines.
The multi-cavity, blow-molding machine features three-layer co-ex and a magnetic quick change along with effective and efficient blow-molding technology in the high-speed production of consumer packaging.
With Industry 4.0 driving technological innovation and automation, plastic bottle manufacturers are releasing more energy-efficient blow-molding machines that can not only produce high-quality, lightweight bottles but also keep total cost of ownership low.
Oftentimes, a trend can be linked to one particular outlet. For instance, AOL’s AIM platform was a contributor to the instant messaging trend in the ‘90s.
Approximately 55 percent of the plastic bottles manufactured in the United States are used for beverage bottling, and half of the plastic bottle manufacturing industry’s revenue comes from carbonated soft drink bottles, according to Santa Monica, Calif.-based IBISWorld’s Sept. 2013 report “Plastic Bottle Manufacturing in the US.”

After introducing blow molding lines to both of its production facilities a few years ago, injection molding has enabled the business to become even more vertically integrated.
In the competitive beverage industry, innovation is key. In the last few years, companies have developed new categories, such as coconut waters, aloe-infused drinks and relaxation beverages. Because formulations like these are so creative, oftentimes their packaging must be, too.
