Used Blow Molding Machine SBO 16 S2 This used Sidel blow molding
machine model SBO 16 S2 delivers high-performance PET bottle
production for modern beverage and industrial packaging operations.
Manufactured in 2001 and fully overhauled with warranty, it offers a
nominal capacity up to 25,000 bph, making it a strong fit for second
hand and used bottling line upgrades. The rotary platform with 16
molds supports continuous operation and stable quality for 1.5L bottle
formats, with flexibility to adapt to other sizes via dedicated molds.
Designed for PET containers, this machine aligns with beverage
production requirements across a wide range of products including
still and sparkling water, CSD, wine, beer, milk, oil, and spirits.
Sidel engineering ensures robust build quality, while the Siemens PLC
and Sidel HMI provide reliable automation and operator-friendly
control. This blow molder is ready for integration into existing
bottling equipment and packaging machinery, offering a proven solution
for increasing throughput and efficiency. Technical Specifications &

Siemens HMI: Sidel Advanced Automation & Control Systems Control is
managed through a Siemens PLC with Sidel HMI, providing intuitive
operation, recipe management, and diagnostic tools for efficient
changeovers and maintenance. The system supports stable process
control of heating and blowing parameters to ensure consistent bottle
quality. Electrical specifications include 400 V, 3-phase, 50 Hz power
and 466 kW installed power, suitable for standard industrial
electrical infrastructures. Integrated guarding and interlocks
contribute to operator safety and reliable production uptime.
Production Line Integration Capabilities This rotary blow molder
integrates seamlessly into a used bottling line or new beverage
production layouts. It interfaces with upstream preform handling
systems and downstream conveyors, fillers, labelers, and inspectors.
Format changes are facilitated via dedicated sets of molds and neck
components. Designed for PET bottle handling, it suits a broad range
of beverage applications and can be configured for multiple bottle
volumes in the 1.5L class and beyond with the appropriate tooling.
Machine Condition & Maintenance History The machine is used,
overhauled, and supplied with a warranty, indicating a
ready-for-operation condition. It is presented as ready for use and
with compatible spare parts. The offered condition reflects a machine
that has been inspected and serviced to deliver dependable performance
in second hand industrial packaging environments. Operational
Performance & Versatility U6254234 With 16 cavities and rotary
motion, the SBO 16 S2 achieves high throughput with stable bottle
quality. It is suitable for PET containers for water (still and
sparkling), CSD, wine, beer, milk, oil, and spirits. The Corvaglia
neck thread compatibility supports standard beverage closures and
packaging specifications. Additional molds can extend format
flexibility to meet changing product portfolios. Installation
Requirements & Site Preparation Utilities required include 400 V,
3-phase, 50 Hz electrical power and compressed air within a 7â40
bar range to support the blowing process. Cooling capability is
recommended; a 50 Hz chiller is available as a separate offer along
with new molds to tailor production formats. The machineâs rotary
configuration should be considered in layout planning for conveyors
and service areas to enable safe access and efficient maintenance.
Safety Standards & Compliance Certification The machine includes
comprehensive guarding and operator protections consistent with
industrial safety practices for beverage production machinery.
Emergency stop circuits, interlocked doors, and controlled access
zones support safe operation and maintenance. Hygienic and robust
construction aligns with the requirements of modern bottling equipment
used in beverage production environments.
