Is Your Process Chiller Functioning Efficiently For HDPE Blow Molding?

Industrial processes require controlled temperature conditions along with regulated pressure for creating the desired end product. The sudden temperature fluctuations can be difficult to maintain, which affects product quality and shape. HDPE (high-density polyethylene) is a polymer grade of polyethylene that finds application as the main material used in films, pipes, and containers. Chillers are crucial for ensuring that the HDPE material receives the accurate temperature and pressure conditions to yield a perfect product.

Let’s take a brief look at the process to understand why high-grade chillers are important for blow molding in the plastic manufacturing industry.

In blow molding, HDPE products are developed by means of inflating or blowing a thermoplastic known as the parison shaped as a mold cavity. The process involves extruding or ‘dropping” a parison on which mold halves containing the desired shape are produced. A pressurized gas is eventually blown into the heated parison out against the cavity walls to form HDPE. Temperature and pressure conditions for the process are 20-50^oC and 0.2-0.7MPA. Extrusion blow molding is the most commonly used for HDPE. There are many methods of manufacturing in the blow molding industry, from reciprocating screw blow mold machines to accumulator head machines. The HDPE product is allowed to cool in the blow mold using a water-cooled chiller until it can be removed from the blow mold to get the desired shape without warping.

Cooling systems in HDPE blow molding industry promote:

• Maintenance of accurate temperature and pressure parameters
• Implementation of sudden cooling during HDPE product manufacturing
• Specific tensile strength for durability and preventing leakage
