Used Blow Molding Machine SBO 16 S2 This used Sidel blow molding
machine is an industrial-grade solution for high-speed PET bottle
production in beverage and food packaging. Overhauled and guaranteed,
it offers reliable performance for manufacturers seeking to expand
capacity or upgrade an existing used bottling line. Designed for PET
containers with a current setup for 1.5L formats, it is suitable for
beverage production including water, soft drinks, beer, wine, spirits,
milk, and oil. The Sidel engineering platform ensures consistent
blowing quality and robust operation in demanding industrial packaging
environments. Manufactured by Sidel, this second hand SBO 16 S2
features 16 cavities and a nominal speed of 25,000 bph, making it a
strong fit for medium-to-high throughput operations. Its rotary
architecture and counterclockwise working direction support smooth
handling and efficient cycle continuity. This machine is available as
seen and can be integrated into existing PET lines or operated as part
of a standalone preform-to-bottle module within a broader packaging
machinery setup. Technical Specifications & Performance Data
Manufacturer: Sidel Model: SBO 16 S2 Year of manufacture: 2000
Production speed: 25,000 bph (nominal) No. of cavities: 16 Container
material: PET Current bottle format: 1.5L Maximum bottle height: 340
mm Machine type: Rotary Working direction: Counterclockwise Number of
spindles: 220 Number of grippers: 8-8 Advanced Automation & Control
Systems The Sidel SBO 16 S2 platform is designed for stable heating,
precise preform handling, and consistent blowing parameters. Standard
operator interfaces support quick recipe changes and format management
to maintain uptime. Safety guards and interlocks protect operators
while allowing easy access for routine adjustments and maintenance.
Quick-change mechanisms on format-related parts help reduce downtime
when switching bottle sizes. Production Line Integration Capabilities
This blow molding machine integrates smoothly with upstream preform
handling (tippers, elevators, unscramblers) and downstream conveyors,
inspection, and packaging equipment. It can operate inline within a
complete PET beverage production line or as a standalone module
feeding containers to filling, labeling, and capping stations. Format
changeovers accommodate typical beverage bottle ranges, with the
current configuration optimized for 1.5L bottles. Machine Condition &
Maintenance History The machine is overhauled, tested, and guaranteed,
with condition described as ready for use. It is offered with
compatible spare parts availability and can also be supplied as seen.
A 6-month guarantee provides additional confidence in performance and
reliability for second U6254234 hand operations. Operational
Performance & Versatility Engineered for PET, the SBO 16 S2 is
suitable for a wide scope of beverage and food applications, including
sparkling water, still water, soft drinks, beer, wine, spirits, milk,
and edible oil. Its 16-cavity rotary design delivers efficient oven
heating, accurate preform transfer via spindles and grippers, and
robust blowing consistency for uniform bottle quality across
production batches. Installation Requirements & Site Preparation Plan
adequate space for preform handling, oven ventilation, and downstream
conveyors. Utilities typically include electrical power, high-pressure
air, and cooling systems associated with industrial blow molding
operations. Floor layout should allow safe operator access and
scheduled maintenance activities to ensure stable performance and
uptime. Safety Standards & Compliance Certification Safety enclosures,
interlocked doors, and emergency stop systems provide operator
protection during operation and changeovers. Hygienic design
principles and cleanable surfaces support beverage industry standards,
while the robust Sidel construction ensures long-term industrial
reliability.
