It isn’t new that EmpakGlass has been working directly with Bucher Emhart Glass in order to provide a “First Gob, First Bottle” approach, since 2012, by developing its product development and mould design.
During last week, EmpakGlass went one step forward with IS Production Engineer Yordan Paskulov which joined forces with an Emhart Production team (IS production, quality, mechanical) on a combined project.
With the technical support of Dominique Vassaux and Alessandro Dogliotti from Emhart, forming simulations in different conditions and IS production settings were analysed, namely:
• Gob temperature;
• Cavity Rate;
• Mould equipment temperature range;
• Orifice ring and delivery system;
• IS timing.
The result was a mould design equipment that has provided real results in sync with the simulations.
