Customized 5 Gallon PC Bottle ISBM Machine
A customized injection blow molding machine with stretch-rod stage (ISBM) for 5-gallon PC bottles, the refillable water carboys used in dispensers. The one-step ISBM cycle injects, stretches and blows polycarbonate into a strong, clear, seamless 5-gallon container.
Overview
This ISBM solution forms returnable 5-gallon PC bottles in a single inject-stretch-blow sequence, building the biaxial orientation polycarbonate needs to survive repeated wash-and-refill cycles. Stretching the preform before blowing aligns the wall for impact strength and clarity, while one-step processing keeps the neck precise for standard dispenser caps. Suited to industrial water-packaging plants, the inject/blow rotary layout forms the 5-gallon (about 19L) bottle without a reheat stage, and AMAN customizes preform and bottle tooling to the plant's bottle.

One machine covers a range of sizes: you only change the mould to make a different product. The machine must be selected according to the LARGEST product you plan to make — running a small product on a large machine is possible, but you lose some efficiency and some material. Send us your smallest and your largest product (size and weight) and we will confirm whether one machine is enough.
Each machine is configured to your container; the final specification is written into your quotation.
