Technical Specifications & Performance Data The Sidel SBO2 is a robust
second hand blow molding solution designed for reliable PET container
production in beverage production and industrial packaging
environments. This used bottling line component delivers consistent
output for small-format bottles with efficient air recovery and
integrated utilities. Manufacturer / Model: Sidel SBO2 Year: 1992
Production speed: up to 3,000 bph (bottles per hour) No. of cavities:
2 Bottle formats: 0.10 L and 0.25 L Container type: PET (preform neck
finish 1881) Air Recovery System: Included Compressor: 1 unit included
Chiller: 1 unit included Preform handling peripherals: Preform
elevator, tipper, and unscrambler not included Machine status: In
production Weight: approx. 9,000 kg Documentation: Manuals available
Advanced Automation & Control Systems This Sidel SBO2 features
PLC-based controls with a centralized operator panel for
straightforward setup and monitoring. Recipe-driven parameters
streamline format changes within the supported sizes, while alarms and
diagnostic functions support fast troubleshooting. Safety features are
included, with interlocked guards and emergency stops designed to
protect operators and maintain uptime. Electrical integration is ready
for standard industrial three-phase supply and can be interfaced with
upstream and downstream equipment in a used bottling line. Production
Line Integration Capabilities Engineered for seamless integration, the
SBO2 connects efficiently with preform feed systems as well as
downstream rinsing, filling, capping, and labeling equipment. Its
compact two-cavity design makes it a practical choice for upgrading an
existing second hand beverage production line focused on small
formats. Whether the downstream operation handles water, juice, beer,
or wine, the machine can be synchronized via conveyors and line
controls. While this blow molder is dedicated to PET, it integrates
well within industrial packaging lines that may also process glass or
aluminum containers on the filling and packing side. Machine Condition
& Maintenance History Currently in production, this machine
demonstrates stable performance at its rated speed. The overall
condition reflects continuous operation with routine care, and the
availability of manuals supports ongoing maintenance, part
identification, and operator training. As a second hand unit, it
offers proven reliability with the advantage of immediate deployment
in a used bottling line environment. Operational Performance &
Versatility Optimized for PET preforms with 1881 neck finish, the SBO2
excels in producing small, on-the-go formats. Typical applications
include still or sparkling water, functional drinks, juice-based
beverages, and promotional SKUs for beer or wine mixology lines that
use PET for sampling or event packaging. The included air recovery
system helps reduce high-pressure air consumption, contributing to
lower operating costs. With two cavities, changeovers are efficient
within the specified bottle sizes, supporting agile beverage
production schedules. Installation Requirements & Site Preparation
Flooring and support: Rigid, level foundation suitable for a 9,000 kg
machine Electrical: Industrial three-phase power supply (specs per
manuals) Compressed air: High-pressure blow air and service air;
integrated compressor present Cooling: Chilled water loop via included
chiller; oven ventilation recommended Line connectivity: Conveyor
interfaces to preform feed and downstream rinsing, filling, capping,
labeling, and packing Safety Standards & Compliance Certification The
machine includes guarding, interlocked doors, and emergency stops to
support safe daily operation. Safety features are designed to protect
personnel while preserving productivity, aligning with the hygiene and
cleanliness expectations of beverage production environments.
Cleanable surfaces and controlled air pathways help maintain bottle
quality before rinsing, filling, capping, and labeling. Manuals are
available to guide safe operation, preventive maintenance, and
compliance checks within your facilityâs quality and safety
management systems.
