40 bar Water-Lubricated Oil-Free Air for PET Bottle Blowing

Table of Content [Hide]

    PET blowing needs clean high-pressure air

    PET stretch blow molding uses pre-blow (≈ 8–12 bar) then final blow (≈ 25–40 bar, 40 bar ≈ 580 psi) to biaxially orient the preform. Oil in the air can fog the bottle or contaminate the product — so oil-free is the norm for food/beverage PET.


    Why 40 bar water-lubricated

    • CMN delivered the world’s first 40 bar water-lubricated oil-free screw compressor (2015) — proven PET duty.

    • Near-isothermal compression keeps discharge low even at 40 bar → reliability for continuous lines.

    • Full range TÜV Class 0 → no oil fog on bottles.

    Air recovery

    Modern PET lines recover blow air from the bottle; size the compressor to net demand after recovery to avoid oversizing.
