1 Installation drawing

The machine’s base installation can be divided into mobility or immobility, it depends on
the work environment and needs.

1.1. Mobility installation can be installed at any time, and it is simple. Six of shock pads
(standard, equiped with six pads) are placed in the position of the bolt holes. With a
horizontal ruler on the edge of the mold, it can be adjusted levels, and we adjust shock
pad, then tighten screw cap.
2
1.2 Fixed installation shall prepare the foundation, the foundation holes are shown in the
figure. We water cement after using the pad to adjust the level. When cement is dry, we
adjust the level again and tighten each screw cap. Anchor bolt aperture is Ф22 (anchor
bolts and pads are bought by user)

3 Production preparation

3.1 The machine is fixed on the foundation according to installation base picture
5
3.2 Height of Die head adjustment according to following picture, because of EB70U no
up/down mechanism, no need to adjust.

1) The above picture lifting points, adjust the head to the desired height. It is
recommended that 60mm is higher than the plane of the template
2) Install hopper
3) Three-phase power cable is connected to the control box
4) Connect the pipes of cooling water, cooling backwater, and compressed air
5) Turn on the motor of oil pump and check if each motor operates normally. And it
rotates according to the direction of indicated arrow. Namely counterclockwise as viewed
from the rear of the oil pump
6) When barrel flange and die head flange are conneted to bolt and tightened, the
diagonals must be tightened gradually and repeatedly, otherwise it will easily make the
sol leak
7) Thermocouples were set aside and heated, check and touch the position of screen
display whether it corresponds, then each group of heater is conneted to power and
heated, then we observe the corresponding detected temperature to judge if heaters
controls are correct or not.

4 Mold platen and product specification

6
4.1 When design and make mold, please refer to the position and size in the above
picture, usually the upper edge of the mold is as high as the upper edge of the template.
If the mold is too long, allowing the upper edge of the template no more than 60mm; if the
height of mold is shorter, use random template to eject, adjust the appropriate length to
balance the force of the template

4.2 If the thickness of used mold is less than the distance of clamp template, the proper
thickness of pads are added in the tow sides of mold.

4.3 The cooling water connector of the mold is located in the left and right sides of the
front dwon side of the rack, each have 4 group ø12mm pipe connector or 4 group water
jets in-out water, it is suggested that the water holes are opend under the mold, which
cool the mold fully.

5 Machine operation and adjustment

5.1 Check the sight glass of the oil tank, the oil’s level should be above the middle; If the
oil is not enough, we should add ISO 46 # hydraulic oils and connect the power (switch is
7
in the outside of the electrical box).

5.2 Press the green button of the pump motor to start pump motor, when the machine
doesn’t operate, the system pressure gauge should indicate 0. In the screen panel,
choose menu-control-manual-left rack. Separately twist the button in the panel and see
the actions, mold rack up, down, mold open, clamp, insert pen up, down and so on, to
confirm if the left rack is working normally. Then in the screen panel, choose menu-
control-manual-right rack. Separately twist the button in the panel and see the actions,
mold rack up, down, mold open, clamp, insert pen up, down and so on, to confirm if the
right rack is working normally. Manual mode, the insert pen should be in the upper.

7.3 Mold installation: select the corresponding left or right rack under manual mode,
make the template open to the maximum (max. daylight is set when necessary). With
crane or forklift, move the mold to the space of mold rack, make the direction of the mold
symmetry with the axis of the template. When the edge of the mold is as high as the
template, clamp the template, and tighten the template and mold with screw. According to
the operation page of electronic ruler setting in the instruction, set electronic ruler drift to
set the closure parameter of the mold. Twist the button of clamp and open mold to open
the mold, then twist the button of downside rack, then make the mold rack move to the
position of the upside rack, namely under the die head, and confrim the upside rack in
place. Observe and confirm that the edge of down side of die is higher than the edge of
8
upside of mold, then clamp the mold again. Check if the left and right directin of the
center of die is facing the center of mold. Otherwise we need to adjust the positon of
mold, then fasten the mold again. Twist the button of downside rack, then make the mold
rack move to the position of the down rack.

7.4 Adjustment for up and down stroke of mold rack: the position of mold rack is set at the
factory and normally the user dosen’t need to adjust it. If special need or inaccurate
machine’s parameter, more guidelines with details in the maintenance, repair chapter

7.5 Adjustment for mold stroke: Due to different size of blow product and different
thickness of mold, we should set the position of clamp template and mold open stroke.
Since the mold clamp of this series machine is controlled by electroinc ruler, users only
set the electronic ruler zero position and opening mold stroke by touching screen and we
don’t need move the induction electric eye. Adjustment method and illustrated as follows:

9
Menu-electronic ruler—electronic ruler of left rack, there are only four adjustable
parameters, separately slow speed of open mold, open mold in place, slow speed of
clamp mold, clamp mold in place. In addiction origin drift and drift cancel two buttons can
be selected. How to adjust the parameters of electronic ruler which is mentioned in the
electronic ruler page in the instruction

7.6 Adjustment for the stroke of blowing nozzle(gas nozzle): the adjusting screw cap on
top of the metering cylinder piston rod is adjusted to an appropriate position and make
the cutting ring of nozzle contact with the die. And the standard is that the cut nozzle is
not hit by die. Adjustment method as illustrated below:

10
7.7 Select and adjust the ways of the cutting preform material: the height of cutter can be
adjusted to accommodate the lift of die head. The time of cutting is controlled by triggered
signal of mold clamping in place by the screen panel. Cutting speed is controlled by the
throttle valve of both ends of the cylinder. When use cutter, we must open swicth of heat
cutter. By adjusting the output voltage to make the cutter to a suitable temperature.

7.8 when machine has been debugged, close the safety door and turn on the green
11
button of oil pump, in the screen panel, click menu-control-left rack auto-start, test the
automatic operation of left rack. Click menu-control-right rack auto-start, test the
automatic operation of right rack. Click menu-control-left rack auto, right rack auto-start,
test the automatic operation of left and right rack.

Note: the front safety door is connected with the switch of the
closed door detection, when the safety door is opened, the
machine will stop operate and alarm. If someone shields the
alert function, it will be dangerous! !

7.9 Heating and cooling the extrusion barrel and screw: barrel heating is automaticall
controlled by AC contactor controlling the heater according to the selected temperature
range. Each barrel with each temperature is equiped with fan to cool, left and right sides
of the feed zone is installed with water pipe connectors, you must provide adequate
cooling circulating water when it is working.

8 Die head adjustment

The die head is connected to the barrel flange through the bolts, and the bolts are
tightened diagonally. Make sure the head is vertical with the centerline of barrel. The
corresponding position of the center of die (also known as the cup) and die core (also
known as cup core) can be adjusted by screw on the die ring. If the preform material
outflow to one side, loosen the screw this side and tighten the screw the other side,
adjsut to be even. If the die and die core are adjusted properly, the outflow preform tube
12
is vertical and the thickness of the cross section is even. If the thickness of preform tube
is required to adjust in actual production, we need to adjust the screw of the adjusting
thickness. If the cup is much larger( for example larger than 60mm), you may need to
adjust in the condition of stop squeezing material. If the machine is equiped with parison
controller, we can adjust according to it. Adjustment as shown below:

9 Die head disassembly & cleaning (PP,PE type)

In the production process, if you find some phenomenons, such as ejecting the plastic
irregularly or the fixed position of preform appears line. At this time, the die head needs to
be dismantled and clean. and it is very easy to dismantle. Before dismantle, the die head
must be heated to a working temperature and maintained for 2 hours. At this time the
temperature of die head is high, therefore we must wear asbestos gloves to work.

Dismantle procedure shown as below:

13
(1) Loose opening mold (cup core) and adjust screws, dismantle the adjustment ring of
die head and remove the die head (cup core)

(2) Unscrew the cup core (note: if the diffusion die, the above ○ 1, ○ 2 action in reverse
order)

(3) Loose the clamping screw of die core of upper die, and screw into the corresponding
screw from ejection process hole then upward eject the die core

(4) Loose the above screw of die core flange, turn the adjusting screw and exit adjusting
mandrel bar

Die head cleaning: after dismantle, we can use soft tool to clean, such as copper brush or
copper scraper. When removing the adhesion of stains, you can add a little of rust
lubricant to clean up, such as WD40. In the clean-up process, be especially careful to
protect the surface of parts from damage.

In reverse order of removal by reassembling the die head, all fastening screws must be
coated with a layer of high temperature and a small amount of molybdenum disulfide
lubricant or oil agent containing graphite. Clean up the lubricant left in the die part in the
last process, if this type of grease left in the machine during operation, it will leak out and
cause the material with black lines.

10 Screw disassembly & cleaning
15
If the screw operate abnormally or material flow is not normal, or judge the melt left, the
screw must be dismantled to inspect and clean. When dismantle, loose the flange bolt
which is connected barrel with die head, then move the die head to the front of screw
axial. Then ejected screw rods(3 pcs) are screwed from the screw holes of the gearbox
shaft, then eject extrusion screw rods from the discharge end. Then we check and clean
them.

After screw removal, we need copper brush to clean up, and the edges of the screw must
not be damaged.

Screw reset installation: put the screw back into the barrel and push it carefully. And
make the flat key of the screw shaft ends face the keyway of gearbox output shaft hole,
finally the screw is in place.

Note: when blow polyvinyl chloride (PVC) material, we must empty the PVC material of
the screw and die head by changine the material before stopping or starting the machine.
The clean method is that take out PVC remain from the hopper, and go on start extrusion
until no PVC is extruded from die outlet, then add a little polyethylene (PE) material, and
extrude all PVC remain from the barrel. Otherwise the PVC remain in the barrel stop over
the flow channel, then decompose and metamorphic, which leads to block the channel.
And it will affect the next operation. But the added PE material dosen’t need to be
extruded completely, we can store about 20%-30%. When we start the machine in the
next time, then extrude them out. The purpose is that to avoid the friction between the
screw and barrel, and it will affect the machine’s lifetime.

11 Operation procedure

When the machine is ready after installation and adjustment, turn on the power, gas and
water system. The raw material is filled in the hopper, turn on the heater power of the
barrel, die head to preheat. Generally it costs 60 minutes. Upon reaching heating
temperature, start the extrusion motor, then the screw slowly rotates. The raw material
stored in the hopper is pushed to the barrel by the rotating screw. The heating makes the
raw material melt gradually, then becomes flow state. Then it is guided by die head,
becomes a tubular and flows out. Extrusion speed is controlled by the speed of the
extrusion motor. Close the safety door, opetate with automatic program, mold rack moves
to the position of the die head, the clamp the mold. The preform material is clamped in
the mold, then cut off the preform material with cutter. The mold rack can move the mold
in preform material to blowing seat. At that time, the gas nozzle will fall down and insert
into the mold to blow and size botlle neck. When the blowing is over, the produt will stay
over for a while and be cooled. Then the mold will open automatically and mold rack will
move to the upside. When clamping, inserted pen will rise. The product is griped by the
vice mold or Hanging bottles board. Move on next cycle in order.

13 Hydraulic system

The up and down of the mould frame, close and open of the mould, aperture setting and
rising up action of the machine are all run by the hydraulic drive. All hydraulic
40
components are placed in the rear part of the machine frame, and then connected to the
corresponding implemental cylinders by the high-pressure oil tube. Hydraulic oil is cooled
by the chiller installed in the back of the oil tank. The chiller must be connected with
circulating cool water, so that the oil temperature does not exceed 50 ℃ to 60 ℃ during
work. If the temperature exceeds 60 ℃, it will make the components in the hydraulic
device and the seals damaged. The maximum hydraulic system pressure is 140bar, while
the clamping force pressure is usually adjusted to 100bar, and the up and down of the
mould frame is 80bar. Pressure adjustment has been set up in the factory, if not
necessary, the operator does not need to readjust.

HAYDRAULIC CIRCUIT
When the pump motor starts, and the oil pump in a normal working condition:
Firstly, the oil pump straw inhales the oil through the oil filter, and then pushes to the oil
circuit. When all the solenoid directional valves are not energized and reversed (in the
initial position) in the oil circuit, the hydraulic oil directly returns into the oil tank through
the electro-hydraulic proportional relief valve 10, so that when the machine runs without
power, it can keep low pressure, saving power, and reducing oil temperature.

Note: Pressure has been settled before the machine leaves the factory, if no special
need, do not adjust, in order to avoid damage to the machine.

HAYDRAULIC CIRCUIT
43
Mould moving frame program (refer to the following image):
When the solenoid valve 11 "S1" end energized, the oil pressed from the oil pump flows
through the solenoid valve 11 and deceleration valve 14 into the end of the mould moving
oil cylinder, and push the piston forward. The stored oil in the front is pressed to return to
the oil tank through the solenoid valve and the T hole in the deceleration valve, thus
piston rod pushes the mould frame up. Before the mould frame reaches the upper limit
position, the stroke rod presses the deceleration valve, and by gradually reducing the oil
return channel to lower the speed and reduce the inertia impact caused by the mould
frame’s movement to the mould. When the mould frame reaches the top frame position,
and induces to the proximity switch, the solenoid directional valve 11 cuts off the power
and switches the direction, the mould frame returns to the middle position, and stops.
When the mould frame reaches the bottom frame position, the solenoid directional valve
11 "S2" end energized, the oil pressed from the oil pump flows through the solenoid
directional valve 11 and deceleration valve 14 into the shaft oil cylinder, thus push the
piston to move to the end of the oil cylinder. The stored oil in the end is pressed to return
to the oil tank, till the mould frame reaches the bottom limit position, the deceleration
valve reduces the speed to the proximity switch, then the solenoid directional valve 11
cuts off the power and switches the direction, the mould frame returns to the middle
position, and stops.

HAYDRAULIC CIRCUIT
44
Mould closing and openning program (refer to the following image):
When the solenoid directional valve 12 "S1" end energized, the pressure oil flows into the
oil cylinder without rod through B hole, thus pushes the piston forward, at the same time
the hydraulic oil in the oil cylinder with rod returns to the oil tank through the solenoid
valve A hole and T hole. The oil cylinder drives the platen and promotes the electronic
scale change. When the electronic scale triggers the slow mould closing instruction, the
oil flow decreases, and the mould closing action gradually slows down, until the mould
locking, after which, the solenoid valve resets, and the oil cylinder without rod completely
closes and holds the pressure by the stop – flow founction of the one-way valve. The
opening program: when the soleniod valve 12 "S2" end energized, the pressure oil flows
into the mould locking cylinder with rod through A hole, and pushes the piston back, at
the same time, by hydraulic controlled one-way valve control end to compulsorily open
the one-way valve, so that the oil in the end without rod of the oil tank returnes to the tank
through the one-way valve, the solenoid valve B hole, and T hole. The cylinder drives the
platen and promotes the electronic scale change. When the electronic scale triggers the
slow opening instruction, the oil flow decreases, and the opening sequence gradually
slows down, until the completion of mould openning.

HAYDRAULIC CIRCUIT
45
Setting aperture (ball pen) oil cylinder working procedures (refer to the following image):
When the mould frame declines to blowing position, and after the proximity switch
induces, the ball pen oil cylinder begins to decline, while the solenoid directional valve 11
"S1" end energized, and the hydraulic oil flows into the ball pen oil cylinder through A
hole. The dropping speed of the air nozzle head and ball pen oil cylinder can adjust the
one-way throttle valve 15. When the air nozzle head declines and feels the bottom limit
proximity switch of the ball pen cylinder, the solenoid directional valve powers off, and
stops. Till the blowing process completes, the settled time makes the solenoid reversing
valve "S2" end energized and reversed, which lifts the ball pen cylinder. When it inducts
the top limit proximity switch of the ball pen cylinder, the solenoid directional valve powers
off, and stops.

14 Pneumatic system
The function of pneumatic system contains blow injection and execution. Moisture and
particles from the air are purified for blow injection. The air for execution is not only
47
purified moisture and particle, but also mixed with oil mist. The air pressure for blow
injection and movement is about 6-7 kg/cm². The speed of each execution component
could be controlled by the adjustment of the flow valve in the pipeline.

Pneumatic system includes following movements:

1. Supply air for parison: the air blown into die head flows through the hole which is in the
middle of the core rod, and comes out from the rabbet of the die head for blow. The
entered air volume should be small to prevent the semi-products from overcooling. The
air doesn’t go through atomized lubricator.

2. Parison cutting: the cutting device` is installed between the mold and die head. It is
driven by pneumatic cylinder. The cutting speed is controlled by flow valve.

3. Blow molding: the parisons are inflated. The air for blow is filtered and regulated; it
doesn’t go through atomized lubricator. The air volume is controlled by flow valve.

4. Additional function for air supply: there are solenoid valves in the both sides of the
standard machine, which is used for cooling nozzle and deflashing devices.
