ZQ135 injection blow molding machine heavy duty European style

Product Overview

O ZQ135 Injection Blow Molding Machine represents the pinnacle of Ever-power Machinery’s European-style IBM lineup. Engineered as a high-capacity replacement for the Uniloy UIB180, this machine delivers an extraordinary 1350 kN of injection clamping force with a 650-gram shot capacity, making it the definitive solution for manufacturers requiring maximum output in large-volume plastic container production.

Built on the same proven one-step injection blow molding architecture that defines the ZQ series, the ZQ135 scales every critical parameter to industrial-grade proportions. The full European-style welded steel frame provides 20%–30% greater structural rigidity than competing machines in its class, while the dual hydraulic system with pressurized clamping technology reduces energy consumption by 20%–30% compared to conventional designs.

With a maximum mold platen size of 1300×500mm and the ability to accommodate bottles up to 2000mm in height, the ZQ135 handles everything from multi-cavity small containers to single-cavity large industrial bottles. The high-precision angle divider ensures perfect synchronization between injection, blow, and stripping stations — a critical factor when operating at this scale where even minor timing deviations compound into significant quality issues.

Why Choose ZQ135 for Heavy-Duty Production

Superior Cavitation Density

With 30 cavities for 10ml bottles, the ZQ135 achieves cavitation counts that match or exceed competing machines while maintaining the quality advantages of injection blow molding. This translates to lower per-unit capital investment compared to purchasing multiple smaller machines.

Dual-Motor Hydraulic Power

The 37+37 kW motor configuration delivers the power reserve needed for simultaneous high-pressure injection and rapid clamping cycles. Independent circuits prevent interaction between injection and clamping pressures, ensuring process stability at maximum output.

Compact Footprint vs. Output

At 5.5×2.0×2.4 meters, the ZQ135 occupies significantly less floor space than competing 135-ton machines (SUMA 175iB: 6×2.6×2.7m). This space efficiency is critical for facilities where production expansion is constrained by existing building dimensions.

FAQ & Selection Guide

Is the ZQ135 suitable for my existing facility’s power supply?

The ZQ135 requires 95 kW total power with 120 kVA recommended transformer capacity. For facilities with limited electrical infrastructure, Ever-power offers a phased startup protocol where the machine operates at reduced power during commissioning. We also provide power factor correction equipment and soft-start motor controllers as options. Our engineers conduct on-site electrical surveys prior to order confirmation to ensure compatibility.

Can I upgrade from a smaller ZQ model to the ZQ135 using existing molds?

Mold compatibility depends on platen dimensions and mounting patterns. The ZQ135’s 1300×500mm platen is significantly larger than ZQ40 (480×340mm) or ZQ60 (600×390mm). Smaller molds can be adapted using adapter plates, but this is generally not economical. Ever-power recommends designing new molds optimized for the ZQ135’s cavitation potential. We offer mold design services and can replicate your existing bottle designs with enhanced cavity counts.

What training is provided for operators and maintenance staff?

Ever-power provides a comprehensive 10-day training program during commissioning: Days 1–3 cover machine operation, safety protocols, and basic troubleshooting.

Days 9–10 involve advanced diagnostics, PLC navigation, and emergency repair procedures. Training certificates are issued upon successful competency demonstration. Refresher courses are available annually at Ever-power headquarters or customer site.

How does the ZQ135 compare to fully electric IBM machines?

The ZQ135 hydraulic system offers superior clamping force density and lower initial capital cost compared to electric alternatives of equivalent capacity. For applications requiring 1350 kN clamping force, hydraulic technology remains the proven standard. However, if energy efficiency is paramount and cycle time reduction of 20% justifies higher investment, Ever-power’s ZQ60HE fully electric model demonstrates our servo-drive capabilities. For ZQ135-scale production, we recommend the hydraulic configuration for reliability and cost-effectiveness, with energy recovery options available.

What is the delivery timeline and payment structure?

Standard delivery for the ZQ135 is 90–110 days from order confirmation, reflecting the complexity of machining and assembly at this scale.
