1. Product Overview<\/h2>\n

The Baby Bottle & PP Bottle Series Blow Molding Machines<\/strong> comprise 7 models across the AS, FS, and JS sub-series, purpose-built for the highly demanding dimensional accuracy, material safety, and surface quality requirements of infant feeding bottle production. All models produce wide-neck containers with the industry-standard 114.3 mm neck diameter<\/strong> used across the global baby bottle market \u2014 compatible with the universal teat-collar systems of major infant feeding brands \u2014 as well as narrower 76.2 mm formats for smaller-capacity feeding accessories.<\/p>\n

The series spans three architectures targeting distinct aspects of the baby bottle market. The AS series<\/strong> (1, 2, and 4 cavity) processes both PET and PP on the same machine \u2014 enabling manufacturers to run crystal-clear PET bottles for retail visibility alongside heat-sterilisation-resistant PP bottles for clinical and premium segments without investing in separate machines. The FS series<\/strong> (PP-only) provides dedicated PP baby bottle production with a standard format (FS-1C114.3) and a wide-neck neck-protection variant (FS-1CG114.3). The JS series<\/strong> (PP-only) offers an alternative PP platform with 1-cavity and 2-cavity configurations.<\/p>\n

All models prioritise no-hand-contact production<\/strong> and AS-grade servo precision \u2014 the two requirements that make baby bottle production technically distinct from standard packaging blow molding. Infant feeding bottles must maintain teat-collar seating geometry within tolerances tighter than most adult packaging closures, and must be produced without contamination risk to the inner surface, which contacts formula or expressed milk directly.<\/p>\n

2. Working Principle<\/h2>\n

All models operate on the two-step reheat stretch blow molding (RSBM)<\/strong> process. Wide-neck infant bottle preforms \u2014 significantly heavier and thicker than equivalent-volume beverage preforms, with a 114.3 mm neck ring accounting for a high proportion of total preform weight \u2014 are automatically fed from a gravity hopper, oriented neck-up, and conveyed through a multi-zone NIR oven on dedicated wide-neck mandrel holders without hand contact at any stage.<\/p>\n

PP processing<\/strong> introduces specific challenges compared with PET. PP has a narrower process window \u2014 the temperature range between insufficient orientation and stress whitening is tighter than PET \u2014 requiring more precise zone-by-zone NIR control and faster transfer from oven to blow station to prevent temperature loss in the critical pre-blow window. All FS and JS series models, and the PP-mode operation of AS series models, incorporate PP-optimised oven zone configurations, transfer timing, and blowing pressure profiles as stored PLC recipes.<\/p>\n

At the blow station, servo stretch rods extend axially per cavity simultaneously with low-pressure air pre-blowing, followed by a 35 kg\/cm\u00b2 high-pressure blast that drives PET or PP against the cooled mold wall. The 114.3 mm wide neck demands a larger mold-platen opening than standard narrow-neck machines \u2014 all models in this series have clamping and mold-open distances specifically sized for the 114.3 mm neck geometry.<\/p>\n

Key structural components:<\/strong> AS-grade servo-electric clamping \u2022 per-cavity servo stretch rod \u2022 multi-zone NIR oven with wide-neck 114.3 mm neck-protection cooling collar \u2022 no-hand-contact automatic wide-neck preform feeder \u2022 Siemens\/Mitsubishi PLC with PET\/PP dual-mode recipes \u2022 inline dimensional rejection system.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

3. Core Advantages<\/h2>\n
\n
\n
\ud83d\udc76<\/div>\n

PET & PP on One Machine (AS Series)<\/h3>\n

AS-series models process both PET and PP without hardware modification \u2014 switching between resins requires only a preform change and PLC recipe selection. Baby bottle producers serving both the clear-PET retail segment and the PP clinical\/premium segment can run both formats on a single machine, reducing capital investment and floor space requirements.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\u2699<\/div>\n

114.3 mm Wide-Neck Precision<\/h3>\n

All models maintain neck-finish diameter variation within \u00b10.15 mm for the 114.3 mm wide-neck format \u2014 the tolerance required for consistent teat-collar engagement torque and airtight seal across all bottles in a production batch. Tighter than standard packaging requirements, this precision eliminates feeding leakage from inconsistent teat-collar seating that causes returns and brand damage.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\ud83d\udc8a<\/div>\n

BPA-Free \u2014 PET & PP<\/h3>\n

Both PET and PP are inherently BPA-free and globally approved for infant food contact under FDA 21 CFR, EU Regulation 10\/2011, and equivalent national infant safety regulations. No plasticisers, no bisphenol compounds, no phthalates. PET offers superior clarity; PP offers superior heat-sterilisation resistance (120\u00b0C autoclave compatible) and microwave safety.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\ud83c\udfaf<\/div>\n

No-Hand-Contact \u2014 Infant Safety Standard<\/h3>\n

Fully automated production from preform feed to bottle discharge with no operator hand contact with preform or bottle interior at any stage \u2014 satisfying the fundamental infant product manufacturing safety requirement and supporting compliance submissions under EN 14350 (infant drinking equipment) and equivalent national standards.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\ud83d\udcc8<\/div>\n

300 to 2,000 bph \u2014 Precision Over Speed<\/h3>\n

Baby bottle blow molding is a precision-first application \u2014 throughput is secondary to dimensional consistency. The series range of 300\u20132,000 bph reflects the extended cycle times required for wide-neck preform conditioning and the reduced cavity counts justified by premium bottle values. Even at 300 bph, per-bottle economics are commercially strong in the premium infant feeding market.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n
\ud83d\udd0e<\/div>\n

Complete Turnkey Supply<\/h3>\n

We supply baby bottle blow molds (114.3 mm and 76.2 mm wide-neck tooling), PET and PP preform injection molds, industrial chillers, and oil-free compressor packages from a single source \u2014 ensuring food-grade and infant-contact-grade compressed air compliance and simplifying procurement for infant product brand owners and packaging converters.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\u26a1 Compressed Air \u2014 Infant-Grade Requirement:<\/strong> All models require low-pressure air at 7 kg\/cm\u00b2 and high-pressure air at 35 kg\/cm\u00b2. For direct-contact infant feeding bottle production, an oil-free compressor delivering ISO 8573-1 Class 1 air quality is mandatory<\/strong> \u2014 hydrocarbon oil mist from a conventional compressor constitutes a food-safety failure in infant packaging. Read our technical guide: why PET stretch blow molding demands 40-bar oil-free compressors<\/a> \u2014 we supply matched infant-grade oil-free compressor packages as part of our complete turnkey solution.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

\n

5. Structure & Material Engineering<\/h2>\n
\n
\n

\ud83d\udee0 Wide-Neck Clamping Architecture<\/h3>\n

The 114.3 mm wide-neck format requires a substantially wider mold-platen opening than standard narrow-neck machines \u2014 all models have clamping and mold-open dimensions sized for this geometry. The FS and JS series use a 139 mm clamping stroke versus 100\u2013122 mm in standard machines, providing the necessary clearance for wide-neck baby bottle mold access without mechanical interference during bottle extraction.<\/p>\n

\u2699 AS-Grade Servo Clamping<\/h3>\n

Toggle-link servo-electric clamping with higher-specification AS-grade servo motors in the AS series \u2014 delivering \u00b10.15 mm neck-finish repeatability for teat-collar seating. FS and JS series use equivalent servo-electric clamping with no hydraulic fluid, eliminating contamination risk in infant product manufacturing environments.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

\ud83c\udf21 PP-Optimised NIR Oven<\/h3>\n

PP has a narrower process window than PET \u2014 the temperature band between under-heated (insufficient orientation, stress whitening) and over-heated (surface burning, crystallisation) is approximately 5\u00b0C versus 15\u00b0C for PET. All PP-mode oven configurations use tighter zone control, faster preform transfer from oven exit to blow station, and PP-specific blowing pressure profiles stored as dedicated PLC recipes. The AS-series dual-mode recipe system allows rapid switching between PET and PP configurations without manual oven adjustments.<\/p>\n

\ud83d\udd13 Baby Bottle Mold Materials<\/h3>\n

Blow mold cavities machined from high-strength aluminium alloy with conformal cooling channels optimised for the thick-base geometry of infant bottles. All mold surfaces in contact with the bottle exterior are polished to food-contact surface finish standards. Baby bottle preform injection molds use 2316 food-grade stainless mold steel, CNC-machined with \u00b10.01 mm on teat-collar seating geometry.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

\ud83d\udd13 Wide-Neck Preform Mandrel System<\/h3>\n

Wide-neck 114.3 mm preforms are significantly larger and heavier than standard beverage preforms \u2014 requiring wider-bore mandrel holders, stronger orientation bowl air jets for correct neck-up orientation, and higher-capacity inclined feeder tracks. All models are equipped with 114.3 mm-specific preform handling hardware as standard, eliminating the adaptation failures that occur when standard beverage machines are incorrectly adapted for baby bottle preforms.<\/p>\n

\ud83d\udcf1 PLC & Dual-Material Recipes<\/h3>\n

Siemens or Mitsubishi PLC with colour HMI. Up to 50 recipes on-board \u2014 including separate PET-mode and PP-mode recipe sets for each bottle format on the AS series. Production batch logging supports infant product traceability requirements. Format changeover between PET and PP requires only preform substitution and recipe selection \u2014 oven zone power, transfer timing, and blow pressure are all managed automatically by the stored recipe.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

\n

6. Typical Application Scenarios<\/h2>\n
\n
\n
\n

\ud83d\udc76 Standard-Volume Infant Feeding Bottles (PET)<\/h3>\n<\/div>\n
120\u2013350 ml PET infant feeding bottles with 114.3 mm wide-neck format for standard teat-collar systems. Crystal-clear PET enables parents to verify fill level and formula mixing without removing the teat \u2014 a practical safety feature. The AS-1C114.3 (500 bph) suits boutique and premium baby bottle brands; the AS-2C114.3 (900 bph) serves mid-volume baby bottle producers.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
\n

\ud83d\udc89 Heat-Sterilisable PP Feeding Bottles<\/h3>\n<\/div>\n
PP baby bottles for steam steriliser, electric steriliser, and autoclave (120\u00b0C) use \u2014 the clinical and hospital-grade segment where heat resistance is mandatory. PP also withstands repeated microwave heating for formula warming. The FS-1C114.3 and JS-1C114.3 (both 300 bph) provide dedicated PP platforms for premium brands where single-cavity production of individual bottle SKUs at high per-bottle values makes commercial sense.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
\n

\u26a1 High-Volume BPA-Free Baby Bottle Production<\/h3>\n<\/div>\n
The AS-4C76.2 (4 cavity, 2,000 bph, 76.2 mm neck) provides the highest throughput in the series for mass-market BPA-free baby bottle production at 250 ml and smaller capacities. At 2,000 bph the economics support retail price points accessible to value-segment infant feeding brands while maintaining the AS-grade dimensional precision needed for consistent teat-collar engagement across all four cavities simultaneously.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
\n

\ud83e\udd4a Dual-Material Brand Range (PET + PP)<\/h3>\n<\/div>\n
Many infant feeding brands offer the same bottle silhouette in both PET (for clear-body visual appeal) and PP (for steriliser-compatible performance). The AS-series dual-material capability on a single machine enables these brands to manage both SKUs from one production line \u2014 using identical molds and preform dimensions, switching between resins by recipe selection alone. This eliminates the cost of two dedicated machines for brands covering both market segments.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
\n

\ud83c\udd95 Toddler Sippy Cups & Training Bottles<\/h3>\n<\/div>\n
Toddler transition cups and training bottles share the 114.3 mm wide-neck format with infant feeding bottles and are manufactured on the same machines. PET clarity enables branded coloured-formula training liquids to be visible through the bottle wall. PP heat resistance supports the repeated sterilisation that toddler drinkware undergoes in daycare and nursery settings.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
\n

\ud83d\udc8a Premium PP Packaging (Cosmetic & Pharma)<\/h3>\n<\/div>\n
Wide-neck PP containers from this series are also used in premium cosmetic cream jars, ointment containers, and pharmaceutical topical preparation packaging \u2014 applications that share the 114.3 mm wide-neck geometry and require the same PP heat resistance and food\/pharmaceutical-contact compliance as infant bottles. The FS-1CG114.3 enhanced neck-protection variant is particularly suited to premium cosmetic packaging where neck-zone surface quality is a brand differentiation factor.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

9. Frequently Asked Questions<\/h2>\n
\n
Q1: Are PET and PP baby bottles BPA-free?<\/strong><\/div>\n
Yes. Both PET and PP are inherently BPA-free \u2014 they do not contain bisphenol A, bisphenol S, phthalates, or other endocrine-disrupting plasticisers. Both materials are globally approved for infant food contact under FDA 21 CFR, EU Regulation 10\/2011, and national infant safety standards including EN 14350. The machines in this series produce bottles from food-grade PET and PP resins with no additives introduced during the blow molding process itself.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
Q2: What is the difference between PET and PP for baby bottles?<\/strong><\/div>\n
PET offers crystal clarity for maximum visual transparency \u2014 ideal for retail packaging where product visibility drives purchase decisions \u2014 but cannot withstand repeated steam sterilisation above 75\u00b0C without deforming. PP is naturally translucent rather than crystal-clear, but withstands steam steriliser temperatures up to 120\u00b0C and is microwave-safe for formula warming. Clinical and hospital-grade infant feeding programs typically specify PP for its sterilisation compatibility. Premium consumer brands often offer both materials, using the same bottle silhouette, and the AS-series dual-material capability supports this twin-SKU strategy from one machine.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
Q3: Why is PP harder to blow mold than PET?<\/strong><\/div>\n
PP has a narrower processing temperature window than PET \u2014 approximately 5\u00b0C versus 15\u00b0C \u2014 and is more sensitive to cooling rate variations that affect the degree of crystallinity in the finished bottle. Under-heated PP produces stress whitening (visible as a white haze in the bottle wall); over-heated PP produces surface burn marks and dimensional instability. Consistent PP baby bottle production requires tighter NIR zone control, faster preform-to-blow-station transfer, and PP-specific blowing profiles \u2014 all managed automatically by the dedicated PP-mode recipes in the PLC on all models in this series.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
Q4: What does the FS-1CG114.3 enhanced neck-protection system do?<\/strong><\/div>\n
The CG designation indicates an enhanced neck-protection cooling collar that provides more aggressive thermal isolation of the 114.3 mm wide-neck ring zone during oven conditioning. For PP baby bottles with very wide collar-ring cross-sections, the standard neck-protection system can allow minor heat migration into the lower face of the collar ring \u2014 causing slight dimensional instability in the teat-collar seating surface. The enhanced CG system reduces this effect, making FS-1CG114.3 the preferred platform for PP baby bottle formats with complex collar-ring geometry or premium seating-surface requirements.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
Q5: What compressed air specification is required for baby bottle production?<\/strong><\/div>\n
All models require high-pressure air at 35 kg\/cm\u00b2. For infant feeding bottle production, ISO 8573-1 Class 1 oil-free air is mandatory at the blowing point \u2014 this is the highest infant-contact-grade air quality standard, requiring oil aerosol content below 0.01 mg\/m\u00b3. We supply matched oil-free high-pressure compressor packages<\/a> certified for infant food-contact air quality as part of our turnkey solution.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
Q6: How does the AS series switch between PET and PP processing?<\/strong><\/div>\n
Switching between PET and PP on an AS-series machine requires three actions: (1) substitute the preform hopper with PP preforms \u2014 the same mold is used for both resins provided the preform geometry is identical; (2) select the PP-mode recipe on the HMI touchscreen \u2014 this automatically changes oven zone powers, zone temperatures, transfer timing, and blowing pressure profile to PP-optimised values; (3) allow 3\u20135 cycle warm-up runs for the oven zones to stabilise at the new setpoints. No tool changes, no hardware modifications, no oven lamp changes are required.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
Q7: What teat-collar systems are compatible with 114.3 mm neck bottles from this series?<\/strong><\/div>\n
The 114.3 mm neck finish is the global standard for wide-neck infant feeding bottles, compatible with teat-collar systems from all major infant feeding accessory brands. Our blow mold neck-finish tooling is machined to the same 114.3 mm thread and seating geometry standard used across the industry. We recommend confirming your specific teat-collar thread-form and engagement-torque specification at mold design stage so the neck-finish dimensions can be validated against your closure system before mold construction.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
Q8: What infant safety certifications can be supported?<\/strong><\/div>\n
Machine architecture documentation confirming no-hand-contact production and no-hydraulic-fluid servo-electric operation is provided for infant product safety submissions. PET and PP material compliance documentation (FDA, EU Regulation 10\/2011, LFGB) can be obtained from resin suppliers for specific resin grades. Product certification testing (EN 14350 infant drinking equipment, ASTM F963 toy safety for dual-use products) is conducted at accredited product test laboratories using finished bottles \u2014 we can advise on which bottle dimensions and geometries affect test outcomes.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
Q9: What is the production lead time from order to delivery?<\/strong><\/div>\n
Standard AS, FS, and JS series machines are produced within 45\u201360 working days from deposit receipt. Baby bottle blow molds \u2014 including 114.3 mm wide-neck tooling with teat-collar seating precision machining \u2014 are delivered in 35\u201345 working days from approved 3D bottle drawing. Wide-neck PP preform injection molds take 40\u201355 working days. Factory acceptance testing with bottle samples and dimensional measurement reports is conducted before shipment. On-site commissioning typically requires 3\u20135 working days.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
Q10: Can these machines produce other wide-neck PP containers beyond baby bottles?<\/strong><\/div>\n
Yes. The 114.3 mm wide-neck machine platform accommodates any container fitting within the maximum body diameter (80 mm) and height (235 mm) envelope \u2014 including wide-neck cosmetic cream jars, ointment containers, pharmaceutical topical preparation packaging, premium food supplement containers, and wide-neck spice or condiment jars in PP. Any application requiring a 114.3 mm wide neck in PP or PET can be produced on this series with an appropriate blow mold. Submit your bottle drawing for mold design feasibility confirmation.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
