A tailor-made HDPE for Uniloy blow moulding machine

Total HDPE 51090 has been chosen by the producer of hazardous material canisters Plastikpack for its latest all-electric blow moulding machine - developed by Uniloy Milacron - to produce specially designed 10-litre stackable UN-approved jerry cans. HDPE 51090 allows Plastikpack’s new jerry cans to meet UN requirements for transportation of hazardous chemicals, thanks to the product’s impact resistance and outstanding combination of stiffness and environmental stress cracking resistance. Plastikpack’s success can be attributed to the material’s ease of processing, excellent wall thickness distribution and brilliant surface finish. Moreover, the new UMS 20 E.S technology with an integrated post cooling, guaranteed flash separation including the handle flash, PWDS system and closed-loop control for all machine movements. The new machine has an accessible clamp system fitted with a direct actuator drive. Once the mould is closed, no power is used. At K fair (Hall 14 Stand B03) the machine will run HDPE 51090 in a single-cavity mould to produce UN-approved jerry cans that include a view stripe.
