FS Curtis PET Bottle Compressor

Features:

1. High-Efficiency Models:

   • Greater compression efficiency compared to traditional models.
   • More air generated while consuming less power, making it energy-efficient.

2. 100% Oil-Free:

   • Ensures the supply of clean, oil-free air during the compression process, making it ideal for applications that require strict air quality standards.
   • Particularly useful for the PET bottle blowing process, which needs clean air to form bottles efficiently.

3. Specialized Cooling and Moisture Design:

   • Includes advanced cooling systems and moisture control mechanisms, ensuring long-lasting performance, especially in demanding industrial environments.

PET Bottle Blowing Process:

The compressor plays a key role in the following steps of the PET/PP bottle forming process:

1. The oven heats the preforms.
2. The mold is locked onto the transmission mechanism.
3. Air is injected into the preform to form the bottle.
4. The mold opens, and the product is unloaded.
5. The process ends with mold stripping.

The compressor provides the necessary clean air to blow the preform into its final bottle shape.

Applications of Blow Molding:

• The VFW Series is designed exclusively for PET bottle blowing but can be used in various other industrial oil-free air applications, including:
  • Pharmaceuticals
  • Food and packaging
  • Textiles
  • Petrochemicals
  • Electronics

Compressor Design:

1. Oil-Free, Clean Pressurized Air:

   • Driven by the crankshaft without needing an additional oil pump.
   • Stainless steel suction and discharge valves ensure long service life.
   • Special coatings are applied for resistance to wear and tear, improving operational smoothness.

2. Durable Pistons:

   • Made from aluminum alloy for reduced weight and balanced operation.
   • Piston rings made of PTFE for enhanced wear resistance.

3. Efficient Cooling and Condensation Design:

   • Advanced cooling methods improve compression efficiency and longevity of parts.

4. Low RPM Design:

   • Longer service life for critical components due to a lower RPM operation.

Maintenance and Control:

• Comprehensive maintenance features, including predictive servicing and easy removal of parts.
• Standard control panel provides protection from:
  • Water loss
  • Oil loss
  • Electric overload
  • Overheating

The VFW Series is available in various capacities, with models offering pressures up to 40 kg/cm² and air capacities ranging from 3.6 m³/min to 23 m³/min.
