Compressor solutions for PET bottle blowing machines
Oil free air compressors for automatic PET bottle blowing machines. Class 0 certified air compressor guarantee clean and safe air for high-quality end products in the PET bottle blowing industry
Custom-made PET bottle blowing compressors
We tailor our products to perfectly match our customers' needs. Depending on the different requirements, such as low noise and vibration levels or different space needs, we can customize our products completely. This also means that no additional infrastructure is needed apart from the investment itself. Additionally, different energy demands require different solutions which we can deliver. All our oil free compressors are satisfactory to the ISO 22000 and 8573-1 norms.
Energy efficient PET bottle blowing
The PET bottle blowing compressors that we manufacture are among the most energy efficient on the market. Being oil free means no expensive air filters must be replaced and that there is no energy loss due to these filters pressure drop. In addition, there is no external high-pressure dryer needed which is the case for our competitors. Our patented “virtual shaft” system connects all our compressors to minimize any possible downtimes and boost energy efficiency. Finally, we offer usable medium-pressure tap-off, making it possible to use the excess of compressed air that is normally lost between the compressor and the booster, in addition to avoiding the need of separate medium pressure air compressors.

Monitoring with SMARTlink
All our compressors are installed with a SMARTlink system which safeguards the performance of our customers’ equipment. SMARTlink links all your compressors with your smartphone and/or computer. It allows continuous monitoring and analyzation of efficiency and allows making accurate and immediate improvements when needed. In case of problems SMARTlink will warn you ahead of a shutdown or similar, this way you can avoid the risk of a breakdown. Additionally, the transparency facilitates assessing system performance leading to improved system usage and minimizing energy consumption costs.

Applications
Cleaning air
Oil-free compressed air is used for cleaning bottles and packaging before they are filled.
If the air is contaminated it can alter the flavor and odor besides being a health hazard.
Medium-pressure tap-off
Gain efficiency by not losing the medium-pressure that is generated when blowing PET bottles and use this pressure for instrumentation in the rest of the company

PET bottle blowing
High pressure compressed air is used to blow bottles into the shape of the blow mold.
Class 0 oil free air ensures the bottle does not get contaminated with oil.
Packaging/Labelling
Compressed air is used to control the valves and actuators in automated lines for packaging, labelling and more.
Oil-free air prevents automated components from jamming and keeps the end product safe.
