ZQ60 Injection Blow Molding Machine
European-Style 60T IBM System — Direct Replacement for Uniloy UIB90 | Zero-Waste, High-Cavitation Production for 1ml–1000ml Bottles
Product Overview
Он ZQ60 Injection Blow Molding Machine from Ever-power Machinery represents the next tier in European-style one-step IBM technology. With 60 tons of injection clamping force and a 260/383g shot capacity, the ZQ60 is engineered as a direct performance-matched replacement for the Uniloy UIB90, delivering expanded production capability while maintaining the precision and efficiency standards demanded by pharmaceutical, cosmetic, and food packaging industries.
Building upon the proven architecture of the ZQ40, the ZQ60 introduces a larger platen size (600×390mm) and increased cavitation potential — achieving up to 14 cavities for 10ml bottles and 10 cavities for 30ml containers. The full European-style frame delivers 20%–30% greater structural rigidity than conventional designs, while the proprietary pressurized clamping system reduces energy draw by 10%–20% compared to competitor machines in the same class.
The ZQ60 processes a comprehensive range of thermoplastics including HDPE, LDPE, PP, PS, ABS, EVA, PCTG, and biodegradable materials. Its one-step injection blow molding process produces bottles with uniform wall thickness, precise neck finishes, and zero scrap waste — critical advantages over extrusion blow and two-step PET systems for applications demanding dimensional consistency and material efficiency.

Mold Cavitation Reference
The ZQ60 accommodates high-cavitation molds that significantly boost hourly output for small-to-medium bottle sizes. The following reference table guides mold selection based on target bottle volume:
| Approx. Volume | 10 мл | 30 мл | 60 мл | 100 мл | 250 мл | 500 мл | 1000 мл |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Max. Cavitation | 14 | 12 | 10 | 8 | 5 | 3 | 2 |
At 14-cavity configuration for 10ml bottles and a 4-second dry cycle, theoretical daily output exceeds 300,000 units — making the ZQ60 ideal for high-volume pharmaceutical and cosmetic production runs.

Application Scenarios
High-Volume Pharmaceutical Packaging
The ZQ60’s 14-cavity capability for 10ml bottles makes it the preferred choice for large-scale pharmaceutical manufacturers producing eye drops, oral suspensions, and nasal sprays. The injection blow process delivers USP-compliant containers with no flash, no contamination risk, and precise dosing neck geometry essential for dropper assemblies.
Premium Cosmetic & Skincare Lines
Cosmetic brands demand flawless surface aesthetics and consistent color matching. The ZQ60 produces high-transparent PS jars, opaque PP lotion bottles, and specialty PCTG containers with mirror-grade finish. The zero-scrap process eliminates color contamination between production batches — critical for brands running frequent SKU changeovers.
Food-Grade Condiment & Sauce Bottles
For 250ml–500ml food packaging, the ZQ60 achieves 3–5 cavity configurations with FDA-compliant HDPE and PP materials. The injection-formed neck thread ensures 100% cap seal integrity, preventing leakage during distribution and shelf storage. Uniform wall thickness provides consistent barrier properties for oxygen-sensitive condiments.
Industrial & Agricultural Chemical Containers
Chemical manufacturers require robust containers with enhanced drop resistance and chemical compatibility. The ZQ60 processes HDPE and fluorinated materials into 500ml–1000ml bottles with thick, uniform walls and reinforced heel designs. The one-step process eliminates weak points at the pinch-off seam common in extrusion blow containers.
Material & Construction
Every ZQ60 is built with component-grade materials selected for decades of reliable operation:
- Injection Mold Core & Cavity: Vacuum-hardened S136 stainless steel (48–52 HRC) or DIN 1.2083 equivalent, offering exceptional polishability and corrosion resistance for medical-grade applications.
- Blow Mold Inserts: Option of beryllium-copper alloy for rapid heat extraction (reducing cycle time by 8–12%) or aircraft-grade aluminum for cost-sensitive projects.
- Hot Runner Manifold: Internally balanced multi-tip design with independent zone PID control. Tip-to-tip temperature variance held within ±1.5°C for uniform melt distribution across all cavities.
- Machine Base: Stress-relieved welded steel frame with polymer-grouted anchor bolts. Vibration-damped mounting pads isolate the injection unit from blow station resonance.
- Hydraulic Power Unit: Variable displacement piston pump with proportional valve control. Oil cooling via plate heat exchanger maintains viscosity stability across ambient temperatures from 5°C to 45°C.
Compliance & Safety Certification
Ever-power maintains a comprehensive certification portfolio ensuring global market access and regulatory compliance:
- CE Marking (EU): Conformity with Machinery Directive 2006/42/EC, Low Voltage Directive 2014/35/EU, and EMC Directive 2014/30/EU. Validated by ECM Certification body.
- ISO 9001:2015: Quality management system covering design, procurement, manufacturing, and after-sales service. Annual surveillance audits ensure continuous improvement.
- High-Tech Enterprise (China): National recognition for sustained R&D investment, patent portfolio, and technological innovation in injection blow molding systems.
- Utility Patents: Multiple granted patents covering pressurized clamping structures, rotary table synchronization mechanisms, and energy-efficient hydraulic circuits.
Integrated Safety Systems: Dual-channel safety PLC monitoring all guard interlocks. Light curtain protection on operator side. Hydraulic accumulator dump valve for emergency mold opening. Mold-closing force limitation prevents tooling damage from foreign object intrusion.
ZQ60 Competitive Advantages
Superior Clamping Force Density
At 600 kN injection clamping force, the ZQ60 outperforms the Jomar IBM65 (460 kN) by 30% and matches the SUMA 65iB (580 kN). This extra capacity enables higher injection pressure for thin-wall applications and improved flash control in multi-cavity molds.
Energy-Efficient Pressurized Clamping
The patented booster cylinder design disengages during mold opening/closing, reducing hydraulic pump load. Operating power consumption ranges from 52–70% of installed capacity — 10%–20% lower than conventional hydraulic IBM systems with fixed clamping circuits.
Servo Rotary Table Precision
Standard servo-driven rotary table achieves ±0.05° indexing accuracy, ensuring perfect station-to-station alignment. This eliminates preform-to-blow mold misalignment that causes wall thickness variation in mechanical cam-driven systems.
