400 V, 3 PH + N, 50 Hz Rated current: 313 A Advanced Automation &
Control Systems The machine features a Siemens PLC for reliable
process control and a Krones HMI for intuitive operation, recipe
management, and diagnostics. The electrical configuration at 400 V and
50 Hz with 3 PH + N supports stable, industrial-grade performance.
Safety guarding and interlocked access points facilitate secure
operation during production and changeovers. Neck-handling design
contributes to smoother format adjustments and reduced container
scuffing. Production Line Integration Capabilities This Krones
Contiform S14 can operate as a standalone blow molder or be integrated
into a complete beverage production line. It interfaces smoothly with
preform handling systems, high- and low-pressure air utilities, and
downstream conveyors leading to filling, labeling, and packaging
machinery. The rotary platform and neck-handling transfer provide
compatibility across typical PET bottle sizes, including 1.5L and
other common formats used in water and soft drink applications.
Machine Condition & Maintenance History The unit is available in
multiple supply options: as-is (seen and liked), refurbished and
guaranteed, or ready for operation with compatible spare parts. A
6-month warranty is available when supplied refurbished. These options
provide flexibility to match project timelines and maintenance
U6254234 strategies. Operational Performance & Versatility Designed
for PET bottle production, this blow molding machine supports a wide
spectrum of beverage categories: still and sparkling water, soft
drinks (CSD), milk, edible oil, beer, wine, and spirits. The Alaska
neck finish configuration and neck-handling transfer optimize
stability and quality during high-speed operation, contributing to
consistent bottle quality in demanding industrial packaging
environments. Installation Requirements & Site Preparation Plan for
adequate floor space to accommodate rotary blow molder access and
maintenance. Electrical utilities should supply 400 V, 3 PH + N, 50
Hz. A suitable compressed air system providing both high- and
low-pressure circuits is required for PET stretch blow molding. Ensure
appropriate ventilation and ambient conditions for stable preform
heating and consistent bottle forming. Safety Standards & Compliance
Certification The machine is equipped with physical guarding,
interlocked doors, and emergency stop systems to support operator
safety. Stainless steel and industrial-grade construction materials
facilitate hygiene and durability in beverage production environments.
Safety features and controls align with common industrial standards
for bottling equipment.
