Global player in liquid packaging
Drinktec Tech Long, Hall B5 – Stand 322 At Drinktec 2017 Tech Long will introduce its G5, Generation 5, blow moulding machines to the European market. The G5 machines are available in formats from four to 36 cavities, with a blowing rate of 2250 to 2400 standard bottles per hour per cavity, and with the capability to blow any PET container from 0,2l to 20 litre.
TCO (Total Cost of Ownership) of G5 blow moulders is claimed to be reduced by a number of features incorporated in the design. Up to 50% air is recovered, the company says, which means that external low pressure air is not really needed. Standardisation of parts and elimination of the carrier chain reduces maintenance or in some cases totally eliminates regular part replacement
Tech Long invests six per cent of revenues in research and development activities each year and is awarded around 20 to 25 new patents annually; its intellectual property bank currently stands at two hundred and forty patents. The company says that its commitment to meeting customer needs and establish it as a global player in liquid packaging is demonstrated by its attention to high quality in design, engineering and manufacturing, along with the drive to create low total cost of ownership.
