Technical Specifications & Performance Data The Sipa 8/4 is a compact,
reliable Blow Molding Machine ideal for small-format PET bottle
production within a used bottling line. Built for continuous duty in
beverage production and industrial packaging environments, it combines
proven mechanical design with essential utilities to support efficient
operation. Manufacturer: Sipa Model: 8/4 Year of manufacture: 2001
Category: Blow Molding Machine Nominal output: up to 3,500 bph
(bottles per hour) No. of cavities: 4 Bottle format: 0.06 L (60 ml)
Primary container material: PET (preform-based stretch blow molding)
Preform neck type: Corvaglia e 29/21 Included utilities: Compressor
(1), Chiller (1) Not included: Preform unscrambler (0), Preforms
tipper (0), Elevator (0), Air Recovery System (0) Condition: In
storage Documentation: Manuals available Advanced Automation & Control
Systems This second hand Sipa 8/4 offers straightforward operation
through a centralized operator interface designed for routine
parameter adjustments. Heating, stretching, and blowing parameters can
be configured to suit the specified preform and neck finish,
supporting consistent bottle quality for small-volume applications.
Central control panel with recipe/parameter management for quick setup
Multi-zone preform oven for precise thermal conditioning (typical for
the series) Integrated alarms and diagnostics to assist maintenance
and uptime Safety features included with guarding and interlocks
around moving and hot sections Standard industrial three-phase
electrical connection (exact ratings available on request) Production
Line Integration Capabilities Designed for seamless integration in a
used bottling line, the machine can be fed by a preform
hopper/elevator and unscrambler (not included) and discharges to
conveyors toward rinsing, filling, capping, and labeling systems. Its
output matches compact lines handling small PET bottles for water,
juice, functional shots, syrups, and other beverages. Upstream
compatibility with preform tipper, elevator, and unscrambler systems
Downstream integration with rinsing, filling, capping, labeling,
inspection, and packing Supports beverage production workflows for
water, juice, beer, wine, and more (downstream processes may include
PET, glass, or aluminum packaging) Format changes within the 0.06 L
range via appropriate molds and change parts Machine Condition &
Maintenance History The unit is currently in storage with manuals
available, facilitating recommissioning and operator training. As with
any second hand industrial packaging equipment, a full inspection,
routine service of the pneumatic and heating circuits, and
verification of utilities are recommended prior to start-up. Wear
parts and consumables should be assessed to align with production
targets. Operational Performance & Versatility With four cavities and
a 3,500 bph nominal speed, this machine delivers repeatable bottle
quality for compact formats where dimensional accuracy and
lightweighting are critical. The integrated compressor and chiller
simplify site deployment, while the Corvaglia e 29/21 neck finish
supports reliable closure compatibility in downstream capping. Whether
the line fills water, juice, energy shots, mixers, or promotional
samples, this PET blower provides the upstream container supply needed
for continuous throughput in beverage production. Installation
Requirements & Site Preparation Stable, level floor area with
clearances for access, safety guards, and ventilation Industrial
three-phase electrical supply compatible with the machineâs
control system Compressed air supply sized for high-pressure blowing
and low-pressure pneumatics Chilled water loop connected to the
included chiller for oven and mold cooling Ambient conditions suitable
for PET preform storage and consistent heating Provision for upstream
preform handling (tipper/elevator/unscrambler) and downstream
conveyors Safety Standards & Compliance Certification The machine is
equipped with safety guards and interlocks around the oven and blowing
station, supporting safe operation and maintenance.
Non-product-contact construction and easy-to-clean access points align
with hygiene practices common in beverage production environments.
Final compliance with local regulations and plant safety policies
should be verified during installation and commissioning.
