SIDEL SBO10- blowing machine, SBO10 is intended to manufacture PET
bottles. Its production rate can be up to 10.000 bottles per
hourdepending on the capacity., As first step, the operator puts the
preform bin, via trans pallet or forklift, in the hoisting and tipping
unit (SAMETO brand) and the preforms inserts in the hopper., After
that, the elevator transfers the preforms to the horizontal elevator,
the unscrambler and the final gravity guide (infeed rails).The below
schematic diagram describes the general process of SBO10 machine:,
which consists of:, 1. Preform infeed rails, 2. Preform infeed wheel,
3. Infrared oven, 4. Preform transfer wheel, 5. Blow wheel, 6. Bottle
transfer wheel, 7. Bottle evacuation, GENERAL Presentation, 1. Infeed
of cold preforms, Cold preforms are inserted by an inclined ramp. They
are hung by the neck and are guided by two rails between which they
are lowered by gravity., 2. Preform heating linear oven, The preforms,
grasped in the spindles at the neck, are turned 180 degrees so that
they are head down and are made to rotate as they pass in front of
infrared lamps. The linear oven has 10 heating modules. Each oven
module has 8 infrared lamps. Ath oven exit, an infrared camera reads
the preform temperature so as the automatic regulation of all the
areas coming under its control., 3. Hot preform transfer wheel, A
transfer wheel with 6 arms conveys the hot preforms through the
blowing moulds when they leave the oven., 4. Preform ejection, An
ejection system is mounted after the preform transfer wheel, in case
of a non correct temperature of a preform., 5. Blow wheel, Preforms
are put in the mould for which opening and closing are assured by a
system of connecting rods operated by a cam. The mould is locked by a
mechanical device. Blow nozzle guides the stretching rod, which
ensures longitudinal orientation. A set of cameras synchronizes the
whole process. The moulds are controlled for temperature by chilled
water circulation., 6. Bottle transfer wheel, A transfer wheel with 6
arms picks up the bottles in the moulds to evacuate them from the
blowing wheel., 7. Bottle ejection, An ejection system is mounted
after the bottle transfer wheel. It is completed by a set of
photocells. If the bottle is not correct, it is ejected., 8. Bottle
outfeed wheel., An outfeed wheel with 8 notches receives the bottles
comes from the transfer arms and puts them down on a belt. They are
held by guides. The bottle outfeed can be linked to a conveyor
system., - Hoisting and tipping unit (1996), - Hopper (1995), -
