Blow Molding Machine Sidel SBO 14 This used Sidel SBO 14 blow molding
machine is a proven rotary system engineered for highâefficiency
PET bottle production. Built in 1999, it delivers up to 18,000 bottles
per hour and is well suited for beverage production and industrial
packaging applications on used bottling lines. With 14 molds and
robust mechanical design, it offers consistent performance for large
formats such as 1.5L, making it a reliable choice for second hand PET
bottling operations across water, soft drinks, beer, wine, spirits,
milk, and edible oil segments. Manufactured by Sidel engineering, this
model integrates smoothly within complete bottling lines or as a
standalone blow molder feeding downstream filling, capping, and
labeling equipment. It is available as seen, or fully overhauled and
guaranteed, providing flexibility depending on your project timeline
and budget. Designed for PET containers, it combines production
stability, format change practicality, and industrial durability
required in modern beverage production and packaging machinery.

bottle height: 320 mm Warranty: 6 months (when supplied refurbished
and guaranteed) Advanced Automation & Control Systems The Sidel SBO
series is designed for reliable, repeatable operation with centralized
control and userâfriendly handling. Typical features include
clear HMI interfaces, recipe management for format changes, and
monitored heating and blowing parameters to stabilize quality at high
speeds. Integrated safety guarding and interlocks protect operators
while maintaining accessibility for routine adjustments and
maintenance. Quickâchange components support efficient format
transitions, contributing to reduced downtime and consistent line
efficiency. Production Line Integration Capabilities This blow molding
machine integrates easily with upstream preform handling and
downstream conveyors, fillers, cappers, and labelers within a complete
used bottling line. It supports inline operation or can run as a
standalone unit feeding existing packaging machinery. The rotary
design ensures smooth bottle transfer and stable handling for PET
containers, particularly in the 1.5L range, with the flexibility to
adapt to other formats through appropriate change parts and settings.
Machine Condition & Maintenance History The unit is available ready
for operation, as seen, or fully refurbished and guaranteed. When
supplied overhauled, critical systems are inspected and serviced to
restore dependable performance, and a 6âmonth warranty is
provided. Readyâtoâuse supply options with compatible spare
parts help reduce commissioning time and mitigate startup risks in
second U6354234 hand industrial packaging projects. Operational
Performance & Versatility Optimized for PET bottle blowing, the SBO 14
delivers stable output for a wide range of beverage and liquid food
applications: still and sparkling water, carbonated soft drinks, beer,
wine, spirits, milk, and edible oil. The 14âcavity rotary
platform balances speed with quality, providing uniform heating and
blowing for consistent bottle weight and geometry. Its design supports
highâuptime operation in demanding beverage production
environments. Installation Requirements & Site Preparation The machine
requires adequate floor space for the rotary blow wheel, oven, and
service access, plus utilities typical for PET blow molding:
electrical supply, highâpressure compressed air,
lowâpressure air for pneumatics, and a cooling circuit or chiller
for process stability. A level foundation and proper conveyor
interfaces are recommended to ensure smooth integration and reliable
performance. Safety Standards & Compliance Certification Comprehensive
guarding, interlocked access doors, and emergency stop circuits
support operator safety and compliance with industrial norms. The
hygienic and maintainable design is suitable for food and beverage
environments, with materials and layouts that facilitate routine
cleaning and inspection.
