The air booster increases the air pressure required for the blowing process in PET bottle manufacturing. This high-pressure air (often between 25-40 bar or more) is used to inflate preforms (heated PET preforms) into the desired bottle shape in blow molding machines.
Air Compression Unit: Compresses the air to the necessary pressure levels.
Reservoir: Stores compressed air and releases it as needed for the blow molding process.
Regulators and Valves: Control the pressure and flow rate of the air to ensure precise and efficient operation.
Cooling Systems: Often integrated to prevent overheating from the high-pressure operation.
Used in PET bottle manufacturing plants, especially for producing containers for beverages, cosmetics, pharmaceuticals, and other consumer goods.
Increased Production Efficiency: Provides consistent high-pressure air, speeding up the production process.
Energy Savings: Many air boosters are designed to be energy-efficient, reducing the cost of production.
Compact Design: These devices are often compact and can be integrated into existing production lines without requiring significant space.
