Krones Contiform S10

Used KRONES contiform S10 blow molding machine 14000 BPH PETTechnical Specifications & Performance DataThe Krones Contiform S10 is a rotary PET blow molding machine designed to produce PET bottles from preforms for beverage production and industrial packaging applications. With a maximum output of 14,000 bph, this machine provides continuous bottle forming performance for a used bottling line or a second hand PET packaging project.Manufacturer: KronesModel: Contiform S10Year of manufacture: 2003Maximum production speed: 14,000 bphConfiguration: RotaryNumber of cavities: 10Current bottle format: 0.33LMaximum container height: 340 mmContainer material: PETPreform neck type: PCO 16.8Number of mandrels: 210Infeed/outfeed grippers: 6 / 6Working direction: CounterclockwiseWorking plane height: 1410 mmAdvanced Automation & Control SystemsThe blow molder is equipped with a Siemens PLC for controlled management of the blowing process. The machine operates with a 400 V, three-phase, 50 Hz electrical supply and has an installed power of 210 kW. Its rated current is 331 A. The HMI indicates automatic production functionality and provides process information including preform temperature and oven regulation temperature.The machine configuration supports repeatable preform heating and bottle blowing control, helping operators manage production parameters during PET bottle manufacture.Production Line Integration CapabilitiesThis Krones PET blow molding machine can operate as the bottle production stage of a PET used bottling line. It is positioned upstream of filling, capping, labeling and secondary packaging equipment, supplying formed bottles to downstream bottling equipment through suitable air conveyors or bottle handling systems.The current configuration is set for 0.33L PET bottles with PCO 16.8 preforms. Integration planning should consider the machine footprint, bottle transfer layout, compressed-air connections, process cooling and downstream line synchronization.Machine Condition & Maintenance HistoryThe machine is presented with a six-month warranty. The available HMI display shows automatic production mode and recorded operating information, supporting evaluation of the machines operating configuration. The 2003 Krones Contiform S10 is suited to buyers seeking second hand PET bottle blowing equipment for beverage production or industrial packaging operations.Operational Performance & VersatilityThe machine is designed for PET bottle production and is associated with applications for natural water, carbonated water, soft drinks, milk, oil, beer, wine, alcoholic beverages and preserves. Its rotary 10-cavity configuration supports continuous preform-to-bottle conversion for production lines requiring reliable PET container supply.Process operation uses 6 bar pressure and a controlled heating section for preforms. The machines counterclockwise working direction, mandrel arrangement and infeed/outfeed grippers form part of its bottle handling configuration.Installation Requirements & Site PreparationInstallation requires a 400 V, three-phase, 50 Hz electrical connection, adequate power capacity for the 210 kW installed load and compressed air at 6 bar. Site planning should allow access around the machine for operation, maintenance and safe material flow.The preliminary layout identifies a main horizontal extent of 5279 mm, an inclined assembly extent of 6482 mm and a right-side vertical extent of 3741 mm. Floor capacity should be assessed against the equipment weight before installation, particularly for installations above ground level. Suitable integration space is also required for preform feeding, bottle discharge and associated conveyors.Safety Standards & Compliance CertificationThe machine is intended for industrial bottle blowing applications and should be installed with appropriate guarded access, emergency-stop provisions and safe interfaces to connected preform and bottle conveyors. Operators should follow established lockout, electrical isolation and compressed-air safety procedures during maintenance and format-related work.For beverage production, the PET bottle blowing area should be maintained in accordance with the hygiene and operational requirements of the overall bottling equipment installation.
