The 24-cavity preform mold is a key tool in the manufacturing of plastic preforms for PET bottles. It is designed for small- to medium-scale production, offering a balance between efficiency and cost-effectiveness. Constructed with high-quality mold steel, it delivers precision and durability, meeting the requirements of industries such as beverages, pharmaceuticals, household chemicals, and personal care products. With its advanced hot runner system, imported components, and precise engineering, this mold ensures the production of high-quality preforms with consistent dimensions and minimal defects.
Advantages of the 24-Cavity Preform Mold
1. Cost-Effective Solution
- Moderate Production Scale: The 24-cavity preform mold offers a suitable production capacity for businesses that do not require the high output of larger molds. Its moderate number of cavities allows manufacturers to maintain efficiency without the significant upfront costs associated with larger molds.
- Affordable Maintenance: Due to its high-quality construction materials and design, the mold requires minimal maintenance over time.
2. Precision and Consistency
- Accurate Preform Production: The mold is engineered to produce preforms with precise dimensions, which is critical for industries that require consistency in bottle size and shape, such as pharmaceuticals and beverages. This accuracy helps streamline downstream processes, such as filling, capping, and labeling.
- Minimized Defects: The mold’s advanced hot runner system ensures uniform heat distribution, reducing the risk of defects such as flash or short shots.
3. Durability and Reliability
- High-Grade Steel Construction: The mold is made from P20 steel for the base and S136 steel for the core, cavity, and thread areas. These materials are known for their strength and resistance to wear, ensuring long-term durability even under high production demands.
- Extended Warranty and Support: The mold comes with a 1-year warranty or a guarantee of up to 3 million mold cycles, providing manufacturers with peace of mind.
Product Features of the 24-Cavity Preform Mold
1. Advanced Hot Runner System
- Efficient Heat Control: The 24-cavity preform mold is equipped with a hot runner system that ensures precise heat distribution across all cavities. This system helps maintain consistent preform quality by reducing variations in material flow and ensuring even filling of each cavity.
- Reduced Waste: The hot runner system minimizes the formation of cold runners, reducing material waste and improving the overall efficiency of the production process.
2. Premium Mold Steel
- P20 Template: The base of the mold is constructed from P20 steel, a high-quality tool steel that provides the structural support necessary for long-term, reliable performance.
- S136 Core and Cavity: The core and cavity, as well as the thread areas, are made from S136 steel. This material is highly resistant to corrosion and wear, which is essential for maintaining the precision of the mold over many production cycles.
3. Precision Engineering
- High Dimensional Accuracy: The 24-cavity preform mold is designed with tight tolerances, ensuring that each preform produced is consistent in size and shape. This precision is crucial for manufacturers in industries that require exact specifications, such as the pharmaceutical and beverage sectors.
- Tight Mold Structure: The mold’s robust and tightly designed structure ensures that production variations are kept to a minimum, resulting in uniform preform quality. This feature helps manufacturers avoid costly adjustments and rework.
